Overview
The Clinton Health Access Initiative, Inc. (CHAI) is a global health organization committed to our mission of saving lives and reducing the burden of disease in low-and middle-income countries. We work at the invitation of governments to support them and the private sector to create and sustain high-quality health systems.

Position Overview
Although there has been a significant decline in HIV incidence over the last two decades driven by increased treatment coverage and rollout of effective prevention interventions such as voluntary medical male circumcision (VMMC) and pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), numbers of new infections still far exceed global targets for epidemic control. There is a clear need for new product options and more effective delivery models that can rapidly increase the scale of prevention coverage. As potentially more acceptable, convenient and discreet options, long-acting PrEP products offer the opportunity to better meet the needs and preferences of end users. This includes lenacapavir (LEN), a six-monthly injection recently approved by the US FDA. 
 
CHAI is currently working with a range of partners, including governments, communities, and the private sector to accelerate the development, introduction, and scale up of effective HIV prevention interventions, while strengthening health systems to support sustainable, resilient prevention responses.  
 
The Technical Advisor will report to the HIV Prevention Associate Director. This role will contribute to several projects focused on introducing and scaling LEN in South East Asia. This role will support critical priorities including addressing key evidence gaps on delivery, cost, and impact, while catalysing government and donor financing for sustained and scaled LEN provision in both countries. Alongside these projects, the Technical Advisor will also support other relevant workstreams across the HIV team and ongoing and new fundraising efforts.  

Qualifications

  • Meticulous work ethic and organization skills with the ability to simultaneously manage multiple complex tasks with a high degree of uncertainty, set priorities, and work independently with a strong attention to detail.
  • Excellent written and oral communication skills, with the ability to efficiently conduct desk research, identify and consolidate key takeaways, and effectively translate insights based on target audience.
  • Strong interpersonal and stakeholder engagement skills, with proven ability to build and maintain strong relationships in a diverse environment.
