The Administrative and Programme Assistant supports the Policy, Strategic Information and Planning Branch by managing data inputs, providing administrative, programmatic and logistical support, and participating in research specific tasks including, but not limited to data collection, data processing and analysis. The assistant will also provide support in the preparation, editing and finalization of presentations, reports and policies. UNFPA is seeking candidates that transform, inspire and deliver high impact and sustained results; we need staff who are transparent, exceptional in how they manage the resources entrusted to them and who commit to deliver excellence in programme results.

The consultant will provide technical expertise and programme assistance in terms of funding and innovative financing for health system strengthening in the context of one of UNFPA’s global innovative partnerships with a private sector entity. To support the needs of the joint programme, UNFPA and Royal Philips developed a financing model for the initiative in the Republic of Congo, to mobilize a mix of public and private resources, including through a revenue model to attract private investments. The financing model includes health macro data to evaluate revenue inputs and cash flows required to support the national scale-up the programme. A first draft of the financing model is currently ready to be reviewed and validated, including through strategic consultations with relevant ministries in the country.
