Overview
The Clinton Health Access Initiative, Inc. (CHAI) is a global health organization committed to our mission of saving lives and reducing the burden of disease in low-and middle-income countries. We work at the invitation of governments to support them and the private sector to create and sustain high-quality health systems.
CHAI was founded in 2002 in response to the HIV/AIDS epidemic with the goal of dramatically reducing the price of life-saving drugs and increasing access to these medicines in the countries with the highest burden of the disease. Over the following two decades, CHAI has expanded its focus. Today, along with HIV, we work in conjunction with our partners to prevent and treat infectious diseases such as COVID-19, malaria, tuberculosis, and hepatitis. Our work has also expanded into cancer, diabetes, hypertension, and other non-communicable diseases, and we work to accelerate the rollout of lifesaving vaccines, reduce maternal and child mortality, combat chronic malnutrition, and increase access to assistive technology. We are investing in horizontal approaches to strengthen health systems through programs in human resources for health, digital health, and health financing. With each new and innovative program, our strategy is grounded in maximizing sustainable impact at scale, ensuring that governments lead the solutions, that programs are designed to scale nationally, and learnings are shared globally.
At CHAI, our people are our greatest asset, and none of this work would be possible without their talent, time, dedication and passion for our mission and values. We are a highly diverse team of enthusiastic individuals across 40 countries with a broad range of skillsets and life experiences. CHAI is deeply grounded in the countries we work in, with majority of our staff based in program countries. Learn more about our exciting work: http://www.clintonhealthaccess.org
CHAI is an Equal Opportunity Employer, and is committed to providing an environment of fairness, and mutual respect where all applicants have access to equal employment opportunities. CHAI values diversity and inclusion and recognizes that our mission is best advanced by the leadership and contributions of people with diverse experience, backgrounds, and culture.
Cameroon Program Overview:
CHAI began work in Cameroon in 2007, with a focus on improving access to lifesaving HIV diagnosis, treatment, and care. CHAI helped the Ministry of Public Health to introduce and scale up paediatric and second-line antiretroviral therapy (ART) and improve laboratory systems to better diagnose the disease, including Early Infant Diagnosis (EID). Since then, CHAI has helped introduce point-of-care testing for HIV and innovative mobile health technology to improve turnaround time for EID results. We have helped to integrate EID, Viral Load (VL), and tuberculosis (TB) testing on one device, and we are working to increase access to newer and better medications for adults and children with HIV alongside the National AIDS Control Committee. CHAI has also supported the government in its efforts to save the lives of women and infants through mentoring of service providers and increasing access to long-acting contraceptives to help women safely plan their families. We have supported the government to introduce and scale up better treatment for severe malaria and are now helping to ensure that it is consistently available and properly used by health workers across the country.
CHAI recently initiated engagement with the Ministry of Public Health (MoH) in Cameroon through its National Malaria Control Program (NMCP). CHAI aims to build sustainable access to timely and high-quality information across relevant levels of the health system and help programs to routinely use data and generated analytics to inform programmatic and strategic planning and operations.

CHAI seeks a highly motivated individual with exceptional analytical, communication, and teamwork skills to contribute to its crucial work in reducing malaria morbidity and mortality in Cameroon.

This individual will work closely with various stakeholders and subject matter experts, driven by a deep personal commitment to achieving impactful results.
CHAI seeks a highly motivated individual to play a pivotal role in bolstering malaria cases and supply chain management through collaborative efforts with the NMCP. This individual will ensure the optimal availability of essential commodities for malaria prevention, diagnosis, and treatment through meticulous needs assessment, procurement processes, and supply chain planning strategies. They will also closely monitor the delivery of malaria case management services at both health facilities and community levels, identifying areas for improvement and ensuring efficient service provision. Furthermore, the Associate will actively participate in developing and implementing interventions that mitigate the growing threat of antimalarial drug resistance in Cameroon. Functioning as an integral part of a broader team, they will collaborate effectively with CHAI’s malaria team, the NMCP, and other relevant stakeholders within and outside the Ministry of Health. This collaborative approach will be crucial for supporting community health initiatives, strengthening malaria case management, and optimizing supply chain management practices.
The successful candidate will possess exceptional analytical and communication skills, as well as strong problem-solving and relationship-building skills. He/she must have a deep personal commitment to producing results and working independently without day-to-day supervision. CHAI values the ingenuity, tenacity, patience, humility, and high ethical standards of its staff. This position will be ideally based in Yaoundé, Cameroon, with some in-country travels on country leadership approvals.
