Jhpiego is a lead implementing partner for private foundations and large international donors supporting HIV programs globally, including HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP)-related products and services. The regionally-based Implementation Science and Service Delivery Advisor is responsible for contributing to research planning, including identification of research questions and study methods to answer knowledge gaps related to existing HIV PrEP implementation and introduction of new PrEP technologies under a new USAID-funded project focused on expanding access to HIV prevention technologies. Knowledge gaps span the full spectrum of implementation/product introduction, including: regulatory and policy; provider training and competency assessment; supportive supervision and mentorship; forecasting and supply chain management; marketing and demand creation, including counseling and interventions for behavior change; all aspects of service provision; monitoring and evaluation; and quality assurance and improvement.  Key work will focus on differentiated service delivery models, to include private pharmacies and e-commerce partners.  For imminent PrEP products, national rollout studies are planned for a number of key countries, and Jhpiego’s Implementation Science and Service Delivery Advisor will be responsible for coordinating protocols across countries and providing technical assistance to ensure uniformity in execution.  This coordination work will involve close engagement with other non-governmental organization implementers supporting HIV PrEP, stakeholders from the US President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), ministries of health, and normative agencies, among others.  Each country engaged in national rollout studies will have dedicated staff to execute agreed research activities, and the Implementation Science and Service Delivery Advisor will provide director technical oversight for these positions, though there will not be supervisorial responsibilities.  Beyond responsibilities for national rollout studies, this technical advisor will provide HIV PrEP technical assistance across an array of HIV PrEP work, including: serve as the implementation science liaison with advisory committees that include product developers; engagement with local partners and private sector stakeholders; coordination of programming to maximize integration opportunities with gender considerations, sexual and reproductive health, and health services relevant to adolescent girls and women;  and, represent evidence stemming from implementation research on research utilization endeavors.  All Jhpiego HIV PrEP efforts aim to provide evidence for use by the World Health Organization in formulation of normative guidance and recommendations, with an eye toward demedicalization of PrEP toward self-care strategies for health.   This position will also provide technical assistance to Jhpiego PrEP projects by providing strategic and technical leadership in the development of PrEP materials and implementation approaches.
