As a small business, we are able to implement novel and innovative approaches using highly participatory approaches to mobilize community, civil society, and government energy in defining and owning solutions, and to promote inclusive development that benefits all groups.**Background**

The Technical Support Services (TSS) Activity helps USAID/South Africa and Regional Health Office (RHO) to address technical priorities and develop creative, innovative solutions to strategically allocate resources, strengthen connections with partners, and replicate best practices and effective program models. Through the TSS contract, Panagora augments capacity by providing technical, operational, and administrative support to USAID’s largest health portfolio and to USAID health offices throughout the region. TSS deploys advisors in response to USAID requests for priority work with government stakeholders, implementing partners, and/or other entities. TSS supports Health Office staff and teams to integrate creative solutions into routine work. TSS also provides international and local expertise for surge support, as needed, for USAID Program Cycle requirements, planning, development, outreach, communications, and Health Office human resource functions.

**Position Rationale**

Panagora seeks a Project Assistant to support engagement activities for TSS as we support USAID and their implementing partners. TSS provides in-person, virtual, and hybrid events and meeting support, including team retreats, internal and external meetings, and technical workshops. This includes planning and preparation (program design, resourcing, procurement, preparing materials); event and meeting support (facilitation, events coordination, synthesizing knowledge, triaging challenges, liaising with providers, and administering in-person, hybrid and virtual-only collaboration platforms); and follow-up and reporting (meeting notes, satisfaction surveys). TSS also provides over 800 square meters of centrally located meeting/event and co-working space for use by USAID, implementing partners, and other key stakeholders in Pretoria, South Africa (called The Collaboration & Learning Hub). The Project Assistant will work closely with the Project Officer: Engagement, and the Senior Project Officer: Engagement, Learning & Adapting (Team Lead) as well as the Operations and Finance teams to ensure that the Collaboration & Learning Hub meets world-class standards.**Primary Responsibilities**

- Conduct regular checks and inspections to guarantee that all facilities, including meeting rooms, common areas, and restrooms, meet the highest standards of cleanliness and organization.
