Summary: The Open Algorithms (OPAL) is looking for a Programme Manager to begin as soon as possible for 12 months including a 1-month trial period.

About the project: The Open Algorithms (OPAL) project is a socio-technological innovation to leverage private sector data for public good purposes by “sending the code to the data” in a privacy preserving, predictable, participatory, scalable and sustainable manner. It has two main objectives: providing a far better picture of human reality to official statisticians, policymakers, planners, businesses, and citizens, while enabling greater inclusion and inputs of all members of societies on the kinds and uses of analyses performed on data about themselves. OPAL, developed by a consortium composed of Data-Pop Alliance, Imperial College London, the MIT Media Lab, Orange and the World Economic Forum, builds on years of work of this group and others, and is a key milestone towards realizing a vision where data is at the heart of societal development around the globe, in support of the UN Sustainable Developments Goals and democracy.

OPAL will start with pilots in Senegal and Colombia with funding from the Agence française de développement (AFD) provided to the Overseas Development Institute (ODI). In its initial phase of OPAL’s deployment, requests for pre-determined indicators—e.g. population densities—will be sent via the platform through pre-developed algorithms running on the companies’ data servers, behind their firewalls, in a privacy-preserving manner, and results will be made available via an interface. Local engagement and empowerment will be central to the development of OPAL: needs, feedback and priorities will be collected and identified through local workshops and discussions, and their results feed into the design of future algorithms. These algorithms will be open, therefore subject to public scrutiny and redress. A local advisory committee on ethics and development—*CODE* in French and Spanish—will provide guidance and oversight to the project, to ensure it abides by key ethical principles. In addition, training will be delivered around the project to foster its use and diffusion as well as capacities and connections more broadly.

About the position:

The OPAL Programme Manager will oversee the development of OPAL’s first 2 pilots in Senegal and Colombia on a daily basis in close coordination with key local partners and the OPAL core team. The OPAL Programme Manager will manage the core global OPAL team as well as oversee the local workstreams leading up to the launch of the first versions of the OPAL platform in early 2018 as well as follow-up and further platform updates after the launch.

They will be responsible for promoting the development of the OPAL project particularly around local regulation/privacy environment, capacity building, and algorithm development community; representing the project in selected instances; and leading global coordination of the core OPAL team, key partners, and oversight bodies.

Key functions of the OPAL Programme Manager will include:

· Coordinate global and local partnership structure

· Ensure coherent project development and management including regular coordination with the OPAL team and core partners and liaising with the global and local advisory boards

· Develop a lead tracking process for partnership management – reaching out to new partners, follow-up for expressions of interest, maintaining and developing key relationships for short and long term project development

· Oversee the budgets, contracting and administrative processes jointly with a Programme Assistant at ODI dedicated to the OPAL project

· Lead on the development of a Communication and Visibility Plan. Promote visibility of OPAL project and organize events and dissemination strategies around key moments and milestones of the OPAL project development globally and locally including identifying strategic partners for event implementation, designing events and branding with core partners e.g. Telcos and NSOs, and overseeing delivery of such events and strategies

· Guide the identification and prioritization of user needs and use case definition and translation into technical, governance and capacity building workstreams in particular

· Significant contributions to the impact evaluation and business model development of OPAL

· Contribute to the definition and reporting of the tracking of the project and pilot objectives

· Support with fundraising efforts

The OPAL Programme Manager will be hired as an ODI contractor (on behalf of Opal Consortium) initially for 12 months with possible extension. The salary range is 45000/65000 euro per year depending on experience.

They will sign an NDA along with her/his contract regarding aspects of the project that require discretion and confidentiality. The Programme Manager will agree to represent the OPAL project only in their capacity as OPAL Programme Manager and to comply with the reporting conditions laid out in the contract. They will report to the OPAL Executive Committee (EC) Chair. Regular updates will be required in written form as well as through calls and meetings with the EC. Status updates as well as feedback from the EC will be vital for the global project design and development.

About you:

· Experienced professional with minimum 5-7 years of work experience focused on management of complex technical projects and large budget involving multiple partners. Proof of successful past experience in a similar position

· Masters’ degree in a relevant discipline

· Interest in development issues and developing countries contexts, including Africa and/or Latin America, preferably having spent time in developing countries

Organization: Clinton Health Access Initiative
Country: Panama
Closing date: 12 Aug 2017

Background:

Founded in 2002, by President William J. Clinton and Ira C. Magaziner, the Clinton Health Access Initiative, Inc. (“CHAI”) is a global health organization committed to strengthening integrated health systems and expanding access to care and treatment in the developing world. CHAI’s solution-oriented approach focuses on improving market dynamics for medicines and diagnostics; lowering prices for treatment; accelerating access to lifesaving technologies; and helping governments build the capacity required for high-quality care and treatment programs. Since its inception, CHAI’s programs have helped more than 11.8 million people in more than 70 countries have access to CHAI-negotiated prices for HIV/AIDS medicines, saving the global health community billions of dollars. For more information, please visit: www.clintonhealthaccess.org.

Malaria is one of the world’s most important causes of illness, death and lost economic productivity. Over the past decade, dramatic increases in donor funding have facilitated scale-up of effective interventions to prevent, diagnosis, and treat malaria. This investment has successfully reduced the burden of malaria in many settings, and some countries have begun planning to eliminate it altogether. Yet these gains are fragile: global funding for malaria remains short of what is needed, last decade’s rapid growth in malaria financing appears to have halted, and resistance to insecticides and drugs threatens to set back efforts. CHAI’s global malaria program provides direct management and technical support to countries around the globe to strengthen their malaria programs and reduce the burden of this preventable, treatable disease. We support governments to scale up effective interventions for prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and surveillance, with the goals of sustainably reducing the number of malaria-related illnesses and deaths worldwide in the short-term and accelerating progress towards malaria elimination in the long term.

Overview of Role:

CHAI is seeking a highly motivated individual to work as part of CHAI’s Global Malaria Commodity Access Team supporting Program Support Teams and Country Teams to plan and execute effective programs in the Central America region. Over the last year, CHAI has been rapidly engaging with countries across the region and supported them to make initial but meaningful steps towards orienting their national strategic plans and systems towards malaria elimination.

One of CHAI’s primary areas of focus is providing access to critical malaria commodities, including diagnosis and treatment. As countries move closer to elimination, it becomes imperative that all cases are confirmed by parasitological diagnostic test prior to receiving treatment with antimalarial drugs and subsequently reported into the national surveillance system. While many countries in the region have made great progress to making confirmatory diagnosis available, work remains to promote and ensure access at the community level.

To improve access to these and other commodities in our focus countries Haiti, Guatemala, Honduras and Panama, the Associate is expected to support the country teams in further developing the elimination strategies tailored to each of the countries and best supporting the teams to execute against these strategies.

The Associate will be part of CHAI’s Global Malaria Team, based in Panama and will report directly to the global malaria diagnosis manager. Due to multi-country support function of this role, up to 75% travel is expected. The candidate will work closely with CHAI’s other Technical Teams to advance access to prevention and treatment commodities in this region.

The individual will bring a generalist skillset to the team and be willing to take on a variety of tasks ranging from data analytics to guidance for teams on leading workshops with government stakeholders. Examples of the country support include the design and implementation of community health workers expansion or forecasting the multi-year need for malaria commodities; in addition to other commodity access needs (i.e. in prevention) that may arise.

The candidate must be able to work independently to drive implementation and have deep personal commitment to producing results. H/she will bring outstanding analytical, problem-solving, organizational, and communication skills, be able to work independently and have deep personal commitment to producing results. CHAI places great value on the resourcefulness, tenacity, patience, humility, and high ethical standards of its staff.

• Develop and maintain strong understanding of the malaria diagnosis and treatment landscape within the Mesoamerica region and identify the highest priority opportunities to improve the quality and coverage of malaria diagnostic and treatment services offered
• Map coverage and quality of diagnostic and treatment services throughout national health systems in Mesoamerica countries
• Participate in field related activities such as trainings or supervision visits

About Rare

Rare is a fast-growing, international conservation organization inspiring change so people and nature thrive. With more than 170 staff operating in 10 countries, Rare advances this mission through innovative grassroots marketing strategies that promote the adoption of proven solutions to social and environmental challenges.

Rare’s impact is delivered via its Pride program, a powerful blend of local capacity building, the replication of technical solutions, and grassroots communications for behavior change that has been empowering local conservation leaders since 1988 at more nearly 300 sites around the world. By catalyzing in-country private and public sector funding, shifting behavior toward more sustainable practices, and focusing attention on critically threatened ecosystems and species, Rare accelerates and creates lasting social, environmental, and economic benefits for local communities and nature.

Rare’s program for watershed protection in Colombia is one of Rare’s three priority global conservation themes, and is poised to deliver increasing impact at a critical time for natural resource management in Colombia’s history. Working at the nexus of water, agriculture, forests, climate resiliency, and the most impoverished communities in the country, there is increasing demand for Rare’s work throughout Colombia.

Position

After years of proven success, Rare is opening two new offices in Colombia (in Cali and Bogota) and is building a local team, creating an immediate opening for a Vice President. The Vice President has overall responsibility for leadership and management of the Colombia program, and is a critical representative for Rare on a global level.

A successful applicant will be an entrepreneurial and inspirational leader, as well as a manager who can both operate at high levels and be willing to roll up his or her sleeves and dig into the details.

Major responsibilities include the development, management, and implementation of Rare’s Colombia Country Program, with a focus on scaling up its watershed protection methodology throughout key regions of the country. The candidate is fully responsible for the program’s revenues and costs, team management, private and public-sector relations, and serving as the key representative of the Colombia program within Rare.

As part of the role, the candidate will be expected to lead the development of blended or sustainable finance solutions that will lead to the funding of the program at scale, by engaging the private sector and developing “investable” solutions for climate-smart, watershed protection.

The candidate is expected to have complete fluency in Spanish and English, and will be based in the Rare office in Bogota, Colombia. S/he will exercise independent judgment regarding the following three priority areas:

Strategy, Vision and Leadership

• Refine and execute the Colombia strategy to achieve Rare’s targets for social and environmental impacts, including the scaling of the watershed program to at least 20% of the applicable market

• Develop replicable programs and products and ensure their execution through the management of Rare’s team and partners

• Develop sustainable or blended finance solutions to engage the public and private sector, and deploy private capital in investable vehicles that fund watershed protection at scale

• Engage with relevant policy initiatives at national and sub-national levels of government

• Create a national advisory board of top government, industry and technical professionals

• Oversee marketing and communications efforts in Colombia to increase the brand and profile of Rare in country

  Required Experience and Education

• Bachelor’s degree; Master’s degree or equivalent preferred
