Resolve to Save Lives is an organization dedicated to improving global health by focusing on two core areas: cardiovascular health and epidemic prevention. The mission of the organization is to prevent 100 million deaths from cardiovascular disease and make the world safer from epidemics. They work with governments and partners across the globe to co-create, advocate for, and scale activities to control high blood pressure, reduce dietary salt intake, eliminate trans fats, and strengthen health security systems. The organization provides resources, guidance, and advocacy tools for large-scale heart health programs and epidemic prevention.

📋 Description

• Fast outbreak detection and response depend on systems most people never see: reagents procured in time, funds reaching response teams in days, the right staff hired before an outbreak peaks. When these fail, responses are late, and late responses cost lives. • The Technical Advisor, Institutional Strengthening & Delivery advances RTSL's institutional strengthening agenda ensuring the “backbone” operational systems support the lifesaving work of NPHAs. The Technical Advisor will work across a portfolio of National Public Health Agencies in Ethiopia, Nigeria, Zambia, and DRC, as part of our Collaborative Surveillance project supported by the Gates Foundation. The role spans the full scope of NPHA organizational strengthening: leadership development, governance and legal mandate, financing and resource mobilization, partnership coordination, and administrative readiness. • NPHA organizational strengthening is a growing emphasis of our work. Drawing on methodology developed and tested at Zambia's NPHI, the Technical Advisor will help NPHAs redesign the planning, finance, procurement, and HR systems that most constrain delivery, working directly with NPHI teams and Delivery Units through co-design workshops, management coaching, and execution support, while building what works into a replicable approach. • The Technical Advisor will also help NPHIs access, absorb, and account for external funding from partners including the World Bank, Global Fund, and Pandemic Fund. • This is a full-time remote role with working hours aligned largely to GMT or US EST time zones, depending on location. The Technical Advisor reports to the Principal Advisor, Country Preparedness, and collaborates with a dynamic team of global and country-level experts. This role is for a fixed term of 24 months with the possibility of extension. The role requires international travel.

🎯 Requirements

• Master’s degree or higher in Public Health, Global Health, International Development, Public Administration, Business Administration or a related field. • 8+ years in public health, global development, or health systems strengthening, with at least 5 years managing complex programs in low- or middle-income countries (LMICs). • 3+ years working directly with government entities in LMICs, supporting public health programs, leadership development, governance reform, and/or health financing initiatives. • Proven experience leading strategic assessments and planning exercises (e.g., JEE, SPAR, NAPHS) or public administration. • Experience with and demonstrated ability to design, deliver, and evaluate training programs for mid- and senior-level government officials, with a focus on leadership, program management, and health security. • Familiarity with how external financing (World Bank, Global Fund, Pandemic Fund) flows through government systems, and the institutional conditions for effective absorption. • Familiar with organizational leadership, management, and governance in contexts of limited resources and political complexity.

🏖️ Benefits

• Health insurance for you and your dependents • Contributions toward retirement • Paid annual leave and sick leave, in addition to public holidays • Two paid, week-long organization-wide breaks at mid-year and end-of-year • Professional development and home office setup benefits • Up-to-date computer equipment
