PHARMACEUTICAL MANAGEMENT CONSULTANT JOB SOUTHERN SUDAN

Pharmaceutical Management Consultant

Background
In November 2009, the three Save the Children offices in Southern Sudan; Sweden, USA, and UK, combined managerial systems to provide a Unified Presence in Southern Sudan. This structure was registered with the Government of Southern Sudan, the Ministry of Legal Affairs and the SSRRC as Save the Children in South Sudan (SC), and programs are managed by Save the Children Fund (SCUK). The integration is the International Save the Children Alliance’s global strategy to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of Save the Children programs thereby magnifying the impact on the lives of children, mothers and their caregivers. Save the Children in South Sudan draws on the experience of each of the three Save the Children members - which together have a combined operational experience of over 40 years in southern Sudan. Save the Children in South Sudan currently operates across nine of the ten states of southern Sudan. Areas of intervention include: emergency response, nutrition, maternal, newborn and child health, child protection, education and HIV prevention.

Save the Children has been engaged in health service provision, working with and for children, their families and communities, in the Central and Eastern Upper Nile region, the Nuba Mountains, and Western Equatoria Regions since 2000. Under Save the Children, US (SC/US), SC has worked in Upper Nile, Jonglei, Lakes and Western Equatoria States since 2005 and Eastern Equatoria State since 2008. In addition to these health services, SC currently operates nutrition programming in Nyirol and Akobo County, Jonglei State. Programs and interventions consist of capacity building and institutional development (including training and community mobilization), awareness raising, advocacy, and networking for improved access to, demand for and quality of primary health care services, including nutrition, as well as HIV prevention.

In particular, the SC health program is focused on strengthening primary health care services through the Basic Package of Health Services. As of May 2011 SC primary health care programming supports 58 health facilities in 11 counties, in five states: 48 Primary Health Care Units (PHCU), and 10 Primary Health Care Centers (PHCC). Pharmaceuticals are supplied by the MoH, however, the supplies often do not reach the facilities for months at a time, leading to stock-outs of essential medicines.
