seeks a seasoned Chief of Party (COP) to lead the management,
coordination, and reporting of all activities under an anticipated $40M
5-year USAID/PMI-funded project in Tanzania. The project will strengthen
the capacity for malaria case management, malaria in pregnancy, and
surveillance in the public and private sector, while maintaining gains
made under previous PMI investments.

The COP should have
significant leadership and management experience; a demonstrated track
record in successfully managing government, donor and malaria community
relations; a commitment to capacity building; and experience
successfully conducting and implementing USAID-funded projects of

of time and cost. The COP will act as the main point of contact with
USAID and other stakeholders involved in program implementation. The COP
will also ensure that the program is represented in national technical,
policy, and planning forums with USAID/PMI, the United Republic of
Tanzania, and key malaria stakeholders. This position will be based in
Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.
