USAID/Eswatini seeks to recruit a Deputy Country Director / Service Delivery Team Lead, (hereafter referred to as “Deputy”), who together with the Country Director, represents USAID/Eswatini’s programming to the Embassy Front Office, USAID/Southern Africa Mission leadership, and State/Global AIDS Coordination leadership. When required, and in the absence of the USAID Director, the Deputy will serve as the Acting Country Director. The Deputy Country Director will also serve as the Service Delivery Team Lead overseeing USAID/Eswatini’s President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) portfolio of service delivery activities across both facility and community platforms to achieve and sustain HIV epidemic control. USAID/Eswatini currently implements a comprehensive PEPFAR program to support the Government of the Kingdom of Eswatini’s (GKoE) response to the HIV epidemic. USAID/Eswatini works with a range of local leaders to anchor USAID support within a locally owned and locally driven HIV response. In addition, USAID/Eswatini strengthens government systems for commodity management and supply chain, developing electronic medical record systems, and advancing allocative efficiencies in the health sector through health financing support. USAID also complements its portfolio in Eswatini by leveraging private sector partnerships and support from other USAID initiatives such as Power Africa and Prosper Africa to improve health and development outcomes in Eswatini. As PEPFAR’s focus shifts towards sustaining program achievements, Embassy Eswatini’s leadership has prioritized the mutual leveraging of PEPFAR and other development programs to catalyze solutions that will address the broader determinants of health outcomes. As such, the Country Director, along with the Deputy Director, are expected to help coordinate USAID programming efforts and represent Embassy Eswatini on a range of development topics, including gender, food security, economic empowerment, power, and connectivity.
