Pretoria, South Africa Panagora Group Full time
Panagora Group is a social enterprise dedicated to providing high-quality, high-impact international health, development, and learning consulting. We are a dynamic woman- and employee-owned small business partner focused on market-based and integrated local solutions that strengthen country capacity and independence; and on learning, communications, and technology solutions to accelerate and heighten impact. 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 Group augments capacity by providing technical, operational, and administrative support to USAID’s largest health portfolio. 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. 

Description of Position

The Solutions Advisor: Communications & Knowledge Management will support strategic knowledge capture, generation, and dissemination for enhanced programming, as well as TSS support to articulate the value-add and contribution to epidemic control by USAID/South Africa and regional health offices (including but not limited to RHO, Botswana, Eswatini, Lesotho, and Mozambique). They will support the development of compelling communications and knowledge products using various technologies and mediums to showcase key program results to priority audiences. They will promote communications and knowledge management best practices, including standard systems, processes, platforms, and technology. The Solutions Advisor: Communications & Knowledge Management will implement innovative solutions, leveraging achievements and successful approaches and integrating them across TSS to help meet the unique needs of USAID/Southern Africa and the RHO. 

Principal Duties and Responsibilities

Microsoft PowerPoint/Google Slides is used extensively across TSS and within USAID.

Contribute to strategic and creative discussions to form conceptual ideas and develop icons, graphics, and other visual assets for use in PowerPoint presentations (and other products) to further the messaging, data staging, and narrative framework needs of USAID. 

Collaborating, Learning, and Adapting (CLA) product development

Develop and maintain high-quality CLA products, including workshop and webinar materials, training curricula, and standard operating procedures.

Contribute to the design, development, and facilitation of effective collaboration opportunities for USAID and key stakeholders, such as webinars, workshops, retreats, and training sessions. 

Support strategic engagements held with USAID, Government counterparts, and implementing partners by attending and documenting session proceedings, and synthesizing and packaging the content into concise, immediately usable, and visually appealing products. 

Technical writing and editing

Copy edit project deliverables, providing a thorough technical review to ensure accuracy, completeness, and visual appeal, as well as compliance to TSS branding and marking guidelines.

Support TSS reporting on activities and achievements, including quarterly and annual program reports.
