- Description
- PSC SOLICITATION FOR HSS ADVISOR The Supervisory Senior Advisor, Health Systems Strengthening, will serve as the lead technical health systems strengthening expert for USAID/Tanzania. S/He will provide strategic direction, technical guidance, and leadership on issues related to strengthening of systems (leadership and governance, health manpower capacity development, health reform, health financing). In carrying out his/her responsibilities, the Supervisory Senior Advisor will supervise and coordinate all USAID systems strengthening activities, and work closely with other USG agencies in Tanzania on broader policy and systems strengthening issues. As the predominant technical expert in systems strengthening, s/he will help mentor and foster the development of other unit team members in this complex and evolving field. S/he will also be responsible to work closely with the rest of the broader Policy and Health Systems Strengthening Team. This larger Team complements the sub unit through a focus on Policy and Advocacy, Monitoring, Evaluation Metrics and Learning; Supply Chain Management, Quality Improvement and working with Civil Society and the Private Sector. The incumbent will work at a senior level in Tanzania's high-priority USG foreign assistance program, possessing significant, very sophisticated technical knowledge, in- depth proven track record of positively influencing health systems and demonstrated results, and an ability to function independently in a highly demanding, frequently changing environment that requires an understanding of systems' hydraulics and an ability to develop creative solutions to complex problems with significant consequences if not done properly. While interventions may remedy one situation, they can set of a chain of events that undermine many others, resulting in a negative impact on national systems and reflecting poorly on the USG. The Supervisory Senior Advisor, Systems Strengthening will manage a multi-cultural team, bridging across all areas of the larger Health, Population and HIV Office at USAID/Tanzania. S/he will report to the Team Leader for Health Systems Strengthening, S/he will be expected to work independently, make program recommendations, and take initiative. S/he will advise USAID/Tanzania on all aspects of strengthening health systems to support sustainable programs in family planning/reproductive health, maternal child health, malaria, tuberculosis, and HIV/AIDS. The incumbent will represent USAID at the highest government and development partner levels and with Washington expert leadership.
