    Default job background
    Description
    Results for Development (R4D) is a leading non-profit global development partner.

    We collaborate with change agents around the world — government officials, civil society leaders and social innovators — to create strong systems that support healthy, educated people.

    We help our partners move from knowing their goal to knowing how to reach it.

    We combine global expertise in health, education and nutrition with analytic rigor, practical support for decision-making and implementation and access to peer problem-solving networks.

    Together with our partners, we build self-sustaining systems that serve everyone and deliver lasting results. Then we share what we learn so others can achieve results for development, too.

    We have a unique and vibrant culture at R4D. Diversity, equity and inclusion are at the heart of our work environment and help advance our mission. Diversity—of ideas, identities, perspectives and backgrounds—is vital to who we are and what we do. We seek people who embrace these values and will help reinforce them. Our work culture is collaborative, creative and entrepreneurial. We operate based on trust and respect. Teams across the organization frequently collaborate on programmatic work and support each other in continuously building a better R4D.

    Opportunity


    R4D's health portfolio leverages extensive networks and expertise to improve health and achieve equity in health outcomes for all people around the world.

    Whether it's assessing policies that can support research and development on new drugs and vaccines, exploring innovations in healthcare and connecting innovators to each other or to investors, supporting the growing global movement for universal health coverage, or producing on-demand research and forecasting to help countries and global institutions plan their healthcare futures, R4D's global health work unlocks new possibilities for global health actors worldwide.


    R4D is seeking multiple highly motivated and dynamic Senior Program Associates (SPAs) to work on our Global Health Team and provide technical and program management support for a variety of projects.


    Projects on which the SPA(s) may work include:

    • The
    Health Systems Strengthening Accelerator .

    The Accelerator is a global initiative led by R4D that expedites progress towards Universal Health Coverage (UHC) in low- and middle-income countries.

    SPA responsibilities on the Accelerator will include administrative and technical support to activities focused on strengthening rehabilitation in health systems.


    • The
    Act to End Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs_ | East Program.


    The Act to End NTDs | East Program, led by RTI International, focuses on partnering with NTD-endemic countries to eliminate five of the most common NTDs, which affect more than one billion people worldwide.

    R4D leads the project's health financing activities within broader efforts to more fully incorporate NTDs programming into the mainstream health system.

    Together with partners, R4D supports government officials and communities to assume greater programmatic and financial responsibility for the NTDs response.

    There is a strong preference for candidates who can be based in Washington, DC. This position will report to a Senior Program Officer on the Health team.

    Responsibilities

    The SPA will serve as a key member of the project team, providing support for implementation of project activities. Responsibilities of the SPA will encompass administrative, project management, operational, research, and communication tasks.

    Within assigned projects, responsibilities may include:

    Supporting health economics and financing analysis in areas including, but not limited to, resource mapping, fiscal space, public financial management, costing, cost-effectiveness, equity and efficiency;

    Supporting senior team members in the development and adaptation of analytic tools and methods to support project aims;

    Conducting qualitative and quantitative analysis on technical and policy issues related to health systems and financing, with increasing levels of independence

    Producing highly polished presentations, concept notes, briefing materials, and other products such as blog posts, newsletters, meeting summaries, thought pieces, and e-communications on key topics of interest

    Monitoring and facilitating the execution of deliverables through collaboration with implementing teams, country-based consultants, funders, and other technical partners

    Supporting the implementation of high-quality monitoring, evaluation, and learning activities related to project implementation (e.g. developing and or monitoring theories of change, conducting outcome harvesting)

    Providing support on a range of administrative/operational tasks including developing contracts; budget and expenditure tracking; invoice processing; organizing meetings and workshops; monitoring workplans; liaising with project stakeholders; and supporting the recruitment of staff and consultants

    Supporting the development and/or maintenance of strong relationships and clear communications with key external stakeholders, including funders, partners, and country officials

    Performing other duties as necessary

    Qualifications

    BA in health policy, public health, or relevant field; at least three (3) years relevant work experience OR Master's degree with at least one year of relevant work experience

    Basic understanding of global health and key principles of health system strengthening
