Senior Advocacy Specialist

vor 2 Monaten


Berlin, Deutschland M&C Saatchi Group Vollzeit

The Senior Advocacy Specialist will play a critical role in ensuring our campaign reaches political decision makers and their influencers in key donor countries (France, Germany, and Norway), and that they make a public gesture of support for the equitable and sustainable use of vaccines.

This position requires a dynamic individual in each country with proven experience in public health advocacy, public policy, and strategic communication, and with a strong network. The Senior Advocacy Specialist will lead efforts in conjunction with other implementing partners to influence decision-makers, build coalitions, and engage health stakeholders to promote equitable and sustainable use of vaccines at national level.

This is a consultancy position scheduled to commence in April and continue through July, requiring approximately 10 days of work for the duration of the project.

**Background**:In the context of a summer of sport, when everyone is captivated by what is happening at the finishing line, we plan to celebrate the power of vaccines to get millions to the starting line. Our campaign will launch high-profile PR activations around the Gavi Investment Case launch event (20 June) and the Olympics opening ceremony (26 July). It aims to build a chorus of support and demonstrate broad public and cross-party political support for equitable and sustainable use of vaccines.

Our key donor countries are France, UK, Germany, and Norway. We want to engage government decision makers in these countries and make them look good and feel good about their commitment to global health and immunization. Ultimately, we want them to commit publicly to step up funding for vaccines.

- Lead the development and implementation of public health advocacy strategies to advance the campaign’s mission and objectives.

- Coordinate advocacy activities and resources across coalition members to maximize impact and effectiveness.

- In-depth knowledge of public health/ international development and familiarity with relevant laws, regulations, and political dynamics.
