We’re looking for a highly motivated individual to lead the health promotion aspect of our work in Ghana.
Our work in Ghana supports the Ghana Health Service (GHS) to build capacity to deliver eye care within the primary health care system. Our work has 3 phases. The current phase, phase 1, focuses on integrating primary eye care (PEC) into existing school health programmes within several districts in Central Region. Phase 2 is intended to expand this work into more regions and Phase 3 to expand our work nationwide.
Reporting in to the Programmes Manager in Ghana, the Health Promotion Lead will be responsible for leading, designing and managing VFAN’s PEC health promotion programme in close partnership with the GHS and integrated into existing health promotion activities in order to increase the awareness of PEC and create demand for the PEC services provided by the GHS and VFAN.
The Health Promotion Lead will work closely with other VFAN team members, in particular the Eye Health Team Lead and the Monitoring and Reporting Lead to ensure that programme activities are delivered on time and to budget.
This role will be pivotal in the design and implementation of VFAN’s first programmes in Ghana and as such requires an individual with experience in the design, creation, implementation and/or management of public health campaigns/activities that can work under their own initiative. It requires an individual that can cope with and manage uncertainty to deliver exceptional results in such an environment. Working across a range of stakeholders you will need to be good at influencing others and building good working relationships across a wide range of cultures and personalities, quickly.
While prior experience of working in or on public health issues is a key requirement we are willing to accept applications from exceptional individuals who have led campaigns more broadly – for example in other sectors like education or wider advocacy for NGOs
