The U.S. Government Global Fund Liaison (USG-GFL) will be either a U.S. Personal Services Contractor or a Third-Country National, placed at the U.S. Embassy and working closely with the USG Côte d’Ivoire PEPFAR team, Global Fund (GF) portfolio managers, Country Coordinating Mechanism (CCM) members, GF recipients and other stakeholders. The GFL would assume responsibility for a leadership role for programmatic and coordination issues at the intersection of USG and Global Fund Health Programs. The GFL will represent the USG at the CCM General Assembly, Strategic Oversight Committee and any other technical or coordination committees related to the CCM and Global Fund Grants. The GFL, administratively reporting to the USAID Health Office Director and programmatically reporting to the PEPFAR Coordinator, will assume responsibility for coordinating critical communications between the USG, the Ministry of Health Program Management Unit for Global Fund, the National Control Programs for HIV/AIDS, Malaria and Tuberculosis, and other organizations functioning as Principal Recipients (PRs) for the Global Fund Funds, in all issues related to coordination between USG and Global Fund program implementation. This work will entail liaising with the major common partners and advocating for complementary program planning and financing. The GFL will represent interagency PEPFAR interests in the execution of her/his duties. The GFL will also ensure coordination of USG-funded technical support for the CCM or GF implementation efforts, including support from USG staff and implementing partners. This includes providing comprehensive, senior level public health advice and technical assistance on Global Fund and other external stakeholder issues to the USG Interagency Team in Cote d’Ivoire. In addition, the incumbent will work with multilateral organizations, such as UNAIDS, WHO, and Civil Society to ensure the impact of Global Fund and USG investments in Cote d’Ivoire.
