Regional Humanitarian Health Adviser – East Africa

by Unknown  |  at  7:38 AM

24 month fixed term contract
As our driven, knowledgeable and influential Regional Humanitarian Health Adviser you'll improve health outcomes for children and their families as you help increase the quality of our humanitarian health work, building the capacity of Save the Children and its partner staff.
Working in more than 120 countries, we do whatever it takes to create breakthroughs in the way the world treats children. Our UK and Global Programmes department delivers humanitarian and development programmes, builds partnerships with institutional donors – including governments, multi-laterals and trusts – and drives lasting change. Together, we save children’s lives, fight for their rights and help them fulfil their potential.
In this impactful role you will ensure that our humanitarian health programmes are delivered in an effective, timely and accountable way, that these invaluable interventions are supported by quality technical inputs and that they're made available to the hardest to reach children and their families. You will drive the 'Public Health on the Front Line' strategy and line manage Emergency Response Personnel, personally deploying to the field at short notice, and making sure deployments of key staff are well supported. You will also:
  • Work in a collaborative way, ensuring that our emergency response work, preparedness and capacity building links closely with longer-term development and chronic humanitarian health programming
  • Make sure that communication and support to country programmes and external representation is closely co-ordinated
  • Help secure funding for humanitarian health programmes, collaborating with donor technical experts and developing high quality proposals
  • Contribute to the design and rollout of humanitarian health capacity building initiatives
  • Represent Save the Children in various technical and health advocacy initiatives and partnerships.
You will have impressive humanitarian health response experience, an understanding of the global health sector, and how INGOs can influence change for children. You will have field experience in diverse and acute emergencies, as well as in protracted crisis settings, and experience working on HIV programmes and in health or nutrition cluster co-ordination. A proven capacity builder, line manager and mentor you will also have:
  • Clinical experience as a doctor or nurse, or a public health background.
  • Experience developing proposals for major donors.
  • A background supporting the development of strategy and organisational technical guidance.
  • The ability to travel at short notice – sometimes to remote and insecure locations – for up to 50% of your working time.
  • Highly developed communication skills.
At Save the Children our mission is to inspire breakthroughs in the way the world treats children and to achieve immediate and lasting change in their lives. If you share our mission, are passionate about making it happen and strongly believe you can contribute then join us and we'll give you every opportunity to succeed. We look forward to hearing from you.
Closing Date: 24th August 2015
