Program Manager, Center for Innovation in Global Health
The O’Neill Institute for National and Global Health Law at Georgetown University Law Center is seeking a program manager to support the Center for Innovation in Global Health (CIGH). This position is ideal for a mid-level global health professional with five to seven years of experience in management and implementation of HIV programs.
CIGH works with governments and partners around the world to develop ground-up global health innovations that elevate local voices and expertise and support their translation into policy and scale. The Center bridges the O’Neill Institute and the Georgetown University Medical Center (GUMC) to bring the expertise of both to the development of novel approaches for improving the effectiveness of local governance for public health. CIGH has several exciting projects under way in partnership with the Government of Malawi, including the Blantyre Prevention Strategy (BPS), which is supporting an innovative district-based HIV prevention approach in Blantyre, and an implementation science study on injectable PrEP. CIGH works closely with the government and a consortium of expert partners. BPS is in its fourth year and is focused on institutionalizing and translating its core program elements into a tool kit that can be adapted in other districts. The study will launch in 2023 and will build upon the BPS platform to understand injectable PrEP delivery among diverse populations and delivery channels.
The program manager (PM) will join a small, but nimble team, which manages and supports the larger consortium of partners. The PM is primarily a supportive position but will manage a portfolio that includes BPS and study-related responsibilities. This position will report directly to the senior program manager but also work closely with the CIGH director and deputy director/BPS program director, other CIGH staff, and affiliated partners. The position is term limited to 24 months, with the possibility to extend term.
Primary Responsibilities:
- The program manager will support the BPS program director and senior program manager in managing and overseeing CIGH’s HIV projects in Malawi.
- The PM will:
- Be responsible for a portfolio that includes ongoing project management of specific program elements and partner-led activities, liaising with implementing partners and other relevant stakeholders, creating agendas and leading relevant meetings, taking notes, tracking tasks and progress toward work plans and grant obligations, managing implementation timelines and deliverables, and reporting to the program director and BPS/study governance structures;
- Contribute to technical oversight of project/study implementation and backstop CIGH leadership on other work areas;
- Communicate regularly (verbally in writing) with the Government of Malawi, our funder, and other stakeholders, including producing reports and presentations;
- Support writing of reports, articles, blogs, and other publications;
- Travel to Malawi (or elsewhere) in support of the projects; and
- Contribute to other key tasks related to grant administration and CIGH operations as requested
Who Are We Looking For?
- MPH, M.A., or related graduate degree such as public policy, public administration, or international affairs, with five to seven years of professional experience in global health program management, administration, and implementation.
- Strong knowledge of and experience working on HIV programs, particularly with a global and/or prevention focus, is required.
- This is not a technical position, but experience contributing to implementation science studies is a plus.
- Experience supporting programs in Africa and/or living and working in Africa is preferred.
- Experience working for the U.S. government or one of its implementing partners is a plus.
- The selected candidate will have strong written and verbal communication skills, particularly in cross-cultural settings, experience writing and publishing academic papers, and excellent organizational skills and proactive work style.
- The selected candidate will work well in ambiguity, be a self-starter who does not require directives to get things done and be a team player who enjoys collaborating on innovative solutions.
