Our Secretariat is staffed and managed by PATH. PATH is a global nonprofit dedicated to achieving health equity. With more than 40 years of experience forging multisector partnerships, and with expertise in science, economics, technology, advocacy, and dozens of other specialties, PATH develops and scales up innovative solutions to the world’s most pressing health challenges.
PATH, on behalf of the Coalition Secretariat, is seeking Control Tower Analyst to support the Global Family Planning Visibility & Analytics Network (VAN). The VAN is governed by a Steering Committee of supply chain professionals. The VAN supports cost-effective delivery of family planning products to developing countries by allowing supply chain professionals to make coordinated supply and planning decisions based on shared visibility into a common set of data. The Analyst will work with other VAN Control Tower Members to ensure that all required inventory and supply plan data is uploaded on-time, is complete, and meets defined quality standards, so as to be reliable for decision-making.
As a key person collecting country stock level and shipment data, this position is a critical member of the team that drives the development and roll-out of the VAN. This position will get to see first-hand how an active supply chain Control Tower works across organizations to balance supply and demand for family planning products and facilitate more timely supply chain responses. It is an exciting role for someone looking to gain more exposure to providing technical assistance in health system strengthening to countries and in developing a strong network with key partners in the reproductive health field.
