Organization: Pamela Steele Associates Ltd Country: Ethiopia Closing date: 16 Dec 2018 ABOUT PSA Pamela Steele Associates (PSA) is a niche management consultancy with a mission to ensure that no patient in developing countries suffers due to lack of essential medicines. Founded in 2013, PSA is headquartered in Oxford, UK and has regional offices in India, Kenya and Nigeria. Working with governments, NGOs and the United Nations, we research, train and provide technical assistance, deploying technical specialists to transform health and humanitarian supply chains in collaboration with client teams. OUR VALUES Humanitarian : we work for the alleviation of suffering; Ethical : we work with integrity; Service-driven : we use our professional expertise to meet our clients’ needs. Pragmatic : we apply general principles and frameworks but listen and adapt to the differing needs of our clients; Innovative : we seek to learn and apply new ideas, and embrace new technologies; Collaborative : we collaborate with partners, clients and service providers for mutual benefit and support, to create a strong team; Respectful : understanding local culture is important for effective change so we work with local partners who are familiar with the context. OUR TEAM PSA’s Business Development team forms part of the Supply Chain and Business Development Unit, which consists of the following teams: Consultancy and projects team Operational research team Training and professional development team Business development team CONTEXT Supply chain management systems for medicine and other health commodities face numerous ongoing challenges across developing countries. Characteristic challenges include inadequate forecasting, insufficient funds, delays in funding disbursements and long lead times. In addition to these complexities, donor-funded programmes typically have their own supply chain systems operating in parallel with the national government health supply chain. Duplication of effort across the health supply chain is thus commonplace, and the resulting inefficiencies impact on health outcomes. Individual national responses have been designed and implemented with varying levels of success, because the underlying roots of these challenges and complexities (human capacity across all health supply chain levels, infrastructure and supporting systems, adequate budgets, etc.) have not been prioritised targets for sustainable development interventions. At PSA, we work with health supply chains in frontier markets, to remove ongoing barriers and accelerate supply chain maturity and performance. We undertake projects facilitating collaboration between host governments, international NGOs, members of the United Nations, and the greater international development community, to achieve lasting sustainable changes. With pride we support the Government of Ethiopia to improve health outcomes in Ethiopia through supply chain excellence. We partner with the Pharmaceuticals Fund and Supply Agency (PFSA) to ensure high levels of health product availability across the country while still achieving a financially sustainable approach. To do this well, we seek team members to join the partnership. WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR You will have passion for making a difference in the lives of people around the world.
