The role will involve providing in-country technical assistance to the Ministry(ies) of Health and potentially other supporting agencies to strengthen immunisation programs through a capacity-building approach.
Specifically, the role is expected to be based full-time in Dili, Timor-Leste, for a period of up to 12 months to provide in-country technical assistance and capacity building to the Timor-Leste Ministry of Health in the area of the Expanded Programme on Immunization (EPI) and other immunisation-related activities. Alternately, this role may involve some Australian-based remote work and/or other in-country support to countries in the Indo-Pacific region.
The scope of technical assistance includes support in immunisation policy decision-making, including support for/strengthening of National Immunisation Technical Advisory Groups (NITAGs) and/or related national technical immunisation advisory groups (such as Expanded Program on Immunisation (EPI) technical working groups); support in program design, implementation and review; coverage and disease monitoring; vaccine safety and surveillance of adverse events following immunisation; risk communication; and monitoring behavioural and social drivers for immunisation.
In this role, the Officer will work closely across NCIRS’ and with other Australian partners (e.g. members of the Australian Regional Immunisation Alliance [ARIA]) as relevant in providing technical assistance to support the safe and effective delivery of vaccines in the Indo-Pacific region.
The National Centre for Immunisation Research and Surveillance of Vaccine Preventable Diseases (NCIRS) is the leading independent organisation in Australia. It provides expert advice on all aspects of vaccine-preventable diseases and other immunisation-related issues to inform policy, planning, delivery, and evaluation of immunisation services in Australia. We are primarily funded by the Australian and other state and territory governments.
Candidates must hold working rights within Australia.
