Gavi recruiting consultant positions for its next Vaccine Investment Strategy (VIS)

                                    

Gavi is currently recruiting three consultant positions to support Gavi’s next Vaccine Investment Strategy (VIS). The VIS is Gavi’s evidence-informed process that takes place every 5 years to evaluate the full value of new vaccines (or underused ones) in support of Gavi’s Board investment decisions. Selected vaccines would then be included into Gavi’s portfolio at the next strategic period (2026-2030). The consultant roles are one-year roles with possibility of extension. Candidates are sought with experience in public health, epidemiology, health economics, impact modelling or closely related field and with strong quantitative and qualitative analysis skills. In particular, the consultant positions are a great opportunity for researchers with an interest in policy analysis and investment case development to get exposure to how policy and investment decisions are made, including engagement with numerous stakeholders.

The following consultants are being recruited:

1 x Senior manager (L4)

2 x Data analyst (L2)
