Johannesburg, South Africa The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation Full time

The Foundation

We are the largest nonprofit fighting poverty, disease, and inequity around the world. Founded on a simple premise: people everywhere, regardless of identity or circumstances, should have the chance to live healthy, productive lives. We believe our employees should reflect the rich diversity of the global populations we aim to serve. We provide an exceptional benefits package to employees and their families which include comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage with no premiums, generous paid time off, paid family leave, foundation-paid retirement contribution, regional holidays, and opportunities to engage in several employee communities. As a workplace, we’re committed to creating an environment for you to thrive both personally and professionally.

The Team

Our Global Health (GH) division harnesses advances in science and technology to save lives in poor countries. We focus on the health problems that have a major impact in developing countries but get too little attention and funding. Where tools exist, we support sustainable ways to improve their delivery. Where they don’t, we invest in research and development of new interventions, such as vaccines, drugs, and diagnostics. Our work in infectious diseases focuses on strategies to fight and prevent HIV & AIDS, malaria, tuberculosis (TB), neglected tropical diseases, enteric and diarrheal diseases, pneumonia and maternal, newborn and child health.

Our TB and HIV work is combined under a joint TB/HIV Program Strategy Team (PST) which focuses on research, development and delivery of new products and tools.

We focus our HIV efforts on some of the countries hardest hit by HIV in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), particularly in populations at greatest risk of infection, including adolescent girls and young women. While treatment scale-up has led to significant declines in new infections and mortality, the rate is not rapid enough to reach globally agreed targets and there remains a persistently high incidence and mortality in several countries in SSA. The HIV team’s strategic vision is to accelerate the reduction in the incidence of HIV infection in high-burden geographies and populations, with a focus on the development of new and affordable prevention and treatment interventions, including long-acting drugs, vaccines and biologics, and to enable their effective use.

The foundation’s TB team aims to address key gaps along the TB care pathway through new approaches to protecting against infection, preventing progression from infection to disease, and improving diagnosis and treatment. Our efforts are diversified based on the understanding that vaccines, diagnostics, drugs, and innovative healthcare delivery are all essential to addressing the TB epidemic. Planning and introducing these new tools will be central to our activities.

Your Role

The Deputy Director, HIV Primary Prevention will support the Director, Africa Health and the Director, HIV & TB Delivery, in achieving their goals by supporting the development and implementation of the foundation’s HIV primary prevention portfolio.

You will integrate and collaborate with technical/functional colleagues across the PST and the Africa Regional Office. Responsibilities will include managing the execution of a growing and complex portfolio of investments in HIV delivery and focusing on strengthening partnerships with global health institutions, and Africa health teams, to meet their strategic objectives. You will build the capability of the PST to ensure impact across the HIV delivery portfolio. You will own the management, integration and oversight of portfolios of foundation investments (grants and contracts) through a highly matrixed organization, while also working with external partners to drive progress toward our goals. You will participate in cross global health efforts to enhance our integration, accelerate impact, and maintain a cohesive and dynamic culture.

What You'll Do- Be accountable for innovations in designing and implementing strategies to assist our focus countries (e.g. Malawi, South Africa, Zimbabwe) to reduce HIV incidence and mortality.- Work with members of the HIV Delivery team and assist them to plan and execute their strategies with fidelity.- Work with the team to plan and implement new prevention technologies and strengthen implementation of existing prevention technologies.- Provide strategic guidance in crafting grants and contracts that require research, modeling and analytics.- Facilitate development of annual and multiyear investment plans and budgets, develop and modify and implement strategies under the leadership of the Director, Health, Africa, and the Director, HIV/TB Delivery.- Lead partnerships with internal and external partners and grantees to advance the foundation’s priorities for HIV.- Accountable for the identification and assessment of key portfolio risks and the development and management of mitigation plans.- Work with foundation leade
