Uniting to Combat NTDs are looking for an exceptional administrator and coordinator to provide complex logistical support to the Uniting team and governance groups.
Salary: circa £33,000 per annum
Location: UK Remote, with quarterly travel to Brighton
Contract: Fixed Term Contract to December 2025 with possibility of extension, funding dependent.
Hours: This is a full-time role with some flexibility around hours worked
Neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) are a group of preventable and treatable diseases that affect about 1.65 billion people around the world. The World Health Organization currently recognises twenty diseases as NTDs.
Uniting to Combat NTDs is a global advocacy organisation that exists to end NTDs by mobilising resources in support of the World Health Organization's NTD road map and the Sustainable Development Goals. We envision a world where no-one suffers from these preventable and treatable diseases. We are hosted by Sightsavers and offer a great place to work.
In February 2023, we conducted a mid-term review of our 2021-2030 strategy to assess its continued relevance in light of the substantial global challenges that have emerged since its inception. While we re-affirmed the strategy's continued importance, we recognized the imperative of intensifying our efforts in resource mobilisation to address persistent funding gaps, the absence of dependable, long-term funding mechanisms for global NTD programs, and significant changes to the global health architecture.
Our target over the next five years is to mobilise over US$2bn towards the WHO NTD road map from a range of sources, existing and new, including from donor governments, multi-lateral development banks, affected countries, and innovative financing. Our success will be measured by the volume of funding we are able to mobilise for countries and individuals affected by NTDs.
About the role
We are looking for an exceptional administrator and coordinator to provide complex logistical support across the Uniting to Combat NTDs team and governance groups, including on major projects, events and communications activities.
This is a varied role, please read the full for further details.
To succeed in this role, you will need:
Essential
- Demonstrable experience in a complex administrative and coordination role
- Experience of providing remote PA and logistical support to multiple team members, including at senior level.
- Experience of diary management and complex international travel management
- Proficiency with multiple technology platforms including Microsoft 365 (SharePoint, Teams Office), Zoom and Google Workspace. Google Workspace and SharePoint are of particular importance.
- Available and able to travel to Brighton quarterly
- Ability to set priorities while balancing the needs of providing support for multiple individuals, including calendar management, travel arrangements, and event planning assistance.
Desirable
- Experience or understanding of International Development, INGOs, NTDs
- French language proficiency
To apply for this exciting opportunity, please complete an application via our recruitment portal.
As an equal opportunity employer, we actively encourage applications from all sections of the community. Sightsavers is a Disability Confident Leader and qualified people with a disability are particularly encouraged to apply.
