Global Solutions Ventures (GSV) – a joint-venture partnership between ZemiTek, LLC and Dexis Consulting Group – is implementing the Long-term Exceptional Technical Assistance Project (LEAP Global), a mechanism originally used by USAID to battle against infectious diseases such as malaria, HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, neglected tropical diseases, and pandemic influenza. As of July 1, 2025, LEAP Global transitioned to the U.S. Department of State (DOS). This initiative aims to address the complex human resource challenges faced by national infectious disease programs in the USA-supported countries.
The intervention of this project is to hire and embed technical expert advisors and subject matter experts within government entities. By directly embedding the technical expertise within the national programs, LEAP provides long-term, sustainable lifesaving support to empower host governments to lead and manage key aspects of their infectious disease portfolios and improve coordination between the U.S. Government and the host country.
About the PositionUnder the America First Global Health Strategy, the United States seeks to protect the American people from global infectious disease threats while supporting partner governments to achieve long-term self-reliance, sustainability, and accountability. In Angola, this strategy emphasizes strengthening Government of the Republic of Angola (GRA) leadership and systems to progressively transition U.S.-supported malaria, HIV, and broader global health security (GHS) programs from externally managed implementation to sustainable government ownership.
The Senior G2G, Data Systems & Transition Advisor will support the GRA Ministry of Health (MOH), Ministry of Finance (MOF), and the U.S. Department of State (DOS) to implement this transition by strengthening government leadership, public financial management, health information systems, supply chain systems, and institutional capacity while ensuring continuity of life-saving humanitarian assistance (LHA) service delivery in full alignment with the new Presidential Executive Order (EO) directives.
The Advisor will provide senior technical and strategic leadership to design, implement, and monitor Government-to-Government (G2G) transition activities that strengthen national ownership of malaria, HIV, and GHS programs. The position will support implementation of the Health Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), oversee transition planning and performance monitoring, strengthen health management information and supply chain systems, and promote evidence-based decision-making, domestic resource mobilization, and long-term sustainability.
