5 billion people do not have access to safe, affordable surgical and anaesthesia care when needed. Can you help us address this neglected area of global health? 

Surgery and anaesthesia have a fundamental and growing impact on global health outcomes. Surgical intervention could address over 30% of the global burden of disease, and yet the poorest 33% of people receive just 3.5% of all surgery. Post-operative mortality rates 1,000 times higher than in some high-income countries can be found in parts of the world where surgery and anaesthesia have been neglected, and in some countries as many as 90% of anaesthetic departments do not have the equipment to provide a safe anaesthetic for a child. 

With 142 Member Societies made up of anaesthesiologists in 151 countries, WFSA is uniquely placed to influence these inequalities and help ensure universal access to safe surgery and safe anaesthesia.

This role offers huge scope for development and learning across a broad remit. You will contribute to our vision and mission and build the overall capacity of our programme team to deliver impactful project work across low-resource countries. As Project Manager you will support and lead delivery of project objectives and make sure critical milestones are delivered on target and within budget. You will also contribute to external and internal reports for specific projects.

This role sits within our Programme Team and reports to the head of the team. You will work closely with all members of the Secretariat (what we call our staff team), as well as many of our committees and other key stakeholders involved in project outcomes. Relationships with Member Societies and our Board and Council will also be important; an ability to interact across a range of stakeholders is essential.  /

Hybrid working is offered with up to three days per week able to be worked remotely and two days spent in our small office in North London. The role includes some international travel.
