Specialist, Advocacy and Partnerships, Africa

The Specialist, African Advocacy will play a leading role in conceptualizing these partnerships, including through identifying and nurturing political and advocacy relationships at country, sub-regional and regional levels. While the role will focus on partnerships with African governments and African regional bodies, the incumbent must also consider the meaningful engagement of communities and civil society, as set out on the Global Fund’s Strategy.

Under the direct supervision of the Head of the Department, the Specialist will work closely with teams across the External Relations and Communications Division, and in close coordination with country teams as well as with other teams and the Executive Office as relevant,  to devise and implement an African Political Advocacy Roadmap that ensures strategic engagement with key partners across the continent.
