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 the country programme, partnering with the UK-based team.
The Country Director (CD) is required to assist The MENTOR Initiative in the overall implementation of the programmes. Key to this is ensuring that the objectives are fully achieved in a timely manner whilst also identifying needs, opportunities and informing strategic and operational responses.
The CD will provide leadership and have overall responsibility for the management of all fundraising, financial and grant management, human resources management, technical programme support, and logistics support.
The CD will coordinate the different programmes to ensure consistent levels of high-quality delivery, accountability and transparency across them all.
