Global Health Security Lead - Washington, United States - RTI International
Description
OverviewRTI International (RTI) is both a global research institute and a leading international development organization. We combine these powerful capabilities with those of our partners to co-create smart, shared solutions for a more prosperous, equitable, and resilient world. Based in North Carolina, USA, RTI is one of the top implementing partners of projects funded through the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). A commitment to making meaningful change energizes our 6,000 staff who deliver results across eight international development sectors and in more than 80 countries.
The Global Health Division (GHD), within the International Development Group (IDG), works in Malaria and Neglected Tropical Diseases; Global Health Security and Public Health Preparedness; Noncommunicable Diseases; Heath Systems Strengthening - including Health Governance, Health Finance, Human Resources for Health, Capacity Building, and Health Policy and Advocacy; and Integrated Care - including Reproductive, Maternal, and Child Health and Family Planning. We address a range of public health problems to reduce disparities, lower disease burdens, and build locally owned sustainable health programs.
RTI is seeking applicants for a Global Health Security Lead to lead and oversee GHD's public health preparedness and resilience portfolio. Resilient health systems ensure countries can effectively prevent, prepare for, detect, adapt to, respond to and recover from environmental and public health threats while ensuring the quality, routine health services in all contexts.
In this role the Global Health Security Lead will refine and carry out a growth strategy in this sector that is linked to health systems strengthening; oversee growth and implementation of the public health preparedness and resilience focused programs; provide technical assistance to strengthen lower- and middle-income countries' (LMICs) strategies/policies as well as national/ sub-national programs planning, implementation and monitoring. The ideal candidate will have demonstrated experience in donor-funded program management and implementation across multiple regions (including Africa or Asia) and have a solid understanding of global best practices across a variety of geographic contexts, at national and sub-national levels.
This position will report to the Vice President, Global Health Division. The position will ideally be based in either Washington D.C. or Research Triangle Park, NC, or telecommute within the US. International telecommuting could be considered on case-by-case basis.
