Are you passionate about developing and coordinating innovative capacity building approaches for complex humanitarian contexts? Could you be our new remote Capacity Building and TeleHealth Project Lead?
UK-Med is a frontline medical aid charity. Born of the NHS, we’ve been working for over 30 years towards a world where everyone has the healthcare they need when crises or disasters hit.
As the focal point for UK-Med’s Telehealth and Capacity Building in Sudan project (REACHES Sudan), the Project Lead will play a critical role in delivering this 10-month initiative, funded by the Sudan Humanitarian Fund and in collaboration with Relief International. The project aims to provide integrated, life-saving healthcare to vulnerable populations in Sudan through innovative remote telehealth and capacity-building interventions.
The Project Lead will focus on designing and coordinating impactful training programs for healthcare workers, ensure learning is aligned and developed based on real-time needs, and managing digital capacity building and telehealth delivery platforms. This role includes working closely with the Health Advisor and senior leadership to develop and document UK-Med’s telehealth methodology, paving the way for sustainability and future use in emergency response programming.
The ideal candidate will have a strong background in learning and capacity building, preferably with experience in designing and piloting new training methodologies. Ideally you will be able to use your experience in humanitarian programming to ensure that solutions are fit for purpose, impactful and accessible in complex humanitarian emergencies. You will have excellent project management skills and the ability to adapt to evolving needs.
A positive, flexible, and solutions-oriented approach is essential, as is the willingness to support in-person training delivery when required.
We offer a competitive salary and benefits along with a friendly working environment and the opportunity to make a real difference.
