Job Title: Health Financing / Mixed Health Systems Consultant
Department: Health Systems Accelerator
Based in: Eastern/Southern Africa
Reports to: Senior Strategy and Health Financing Advisor
Who we are
PSI is a global non-profit organization focused on making it easier for all people to live healthier lives and plan the families they desire. PSI is reimagining healthcare, by putting the consumer at the center, and wherever possible – bringing care to the front door. We see consumer-powered healthcare as the sustainable path toward Universal Health Coverage (UHC). Our 2021-2023 strategy sharpens PSI’s focus on working more closely with national governments and partners to strengthen private sector engagement – enabling public money to flow to private health care provision – and integrate self-care and digital health as critical components of future health systems. We want to shape mixed health systems, through which the consumer can access quality products, services, and information without financial hardship. PSI’s newly established Health Systems Accelerator (HSA) will be leading this work, helping PSI intensify its contribution to country-level efforts to move towards UHC.
What we are looking for
PSI country teams have started working on aligning their respective country strategies to PSI’s Global Strategy to Scale Consumer Powered Healthcare and developing their Operational Plans for the 2021-2023 strategy cycle.
The HSA is building a roster of health financing / mixed health systems consultants to provide on-demand support to PSI country teams in eastern and southern Africa as they align their strategies, prepare their plans and start implementing them.
We are looking for experienced and energetic professionals with a solid understanding of health financing and health systems, with strong strategic and analytical skills, with experience working with national governments on health sector reform, particularly relating to the role of private providers in the delivery of essential health services, and with significant experience in fundraising. Selected consultants may also provide support to the HSA itself.
