Country Director – Africa

The MENTOR Initiative (‘MENTOR’) is a humanitarian organisation specialising in disease control and improving access to healthcare in emergency settings currently across countries in Africa, the Middle East and South America. MENTOR is the leading organisation dedicated to the control of malaria and other vector-borne diseases in complex, challenging settings.

MENTOR delivers large scale disease control interventions working with remote and underserved communities affected by emergencies such as conflict and natural disasters. We also help build the technical and operational capacity of local and international partners to incorporate medium- and long-term disease control systems into their operations and country strategy.

We are now looking for an experienced and highly motivated Country Director with a strong interest in disease control to lead and develop a country programme, partnering with a strong UK-based team.

The successful candidate will be trained in our systems and approaches, and then take on the leadership of a country programme in an emergency setting.
