LEAP Program Description

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 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.

Position Description

The Senior Technical Advisor - One Health will support the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW) in carrying out life-saving humanitarian assistance (LHA) in full alignment with the new Presidential Executive Order (EO) directives.  The primary focus of the Advisor will be technical leadership to ensure the successful implementation of cost-effective, lifesaving direct service delivery for tuberculosis prevention and treatment.

The Senior Technical Advisor - One Health will provide technical leadership to MoHFW and the One Health Secretariat to strengthen multisectoral coordination for early warning, surveillance, and response to emerging and endemic infectious diseases. This includes facilitating joint outbreak investigations, capacity building, and policy development to reduce epidemic and pandemic risks, while ensuring coordination and implementation of USG-funded One Health activities. The position will work closely with government counterparts and will report to the Chair, One Health Secretariat Coordination Committee and Office of Assistance Coordination (ACOORD), U.S. Department of State as appropriate.

Responsibilities

• Coordinate with One Health interlocutor ministries, development partners, and UN agencies for integrated surveillance and early warning systems.

• Strengthen capacities in diagnostics, sample transportation, laboratory networks, data sharing, and risk communication.

The Senior Advisor will provide a detailed monthly report to the U.S. Department of State, submitted by the 5th day of the following month. Additionally, the Advisor will submit a weekly progress report to the U.S. Department of State (and participate in weekly calls) to include a short paragraph about main successes for that week. The format for reporting may be adjusted with concurrence from the AOR/COR.
