This is a remote position.

Panagora Group is a social enterprise dedicated to providing high-quality, high-impact international health, development, and learning consulting. We are a dynamic woman- and employee-owned small business focused on market-based and integrated local solutions that strengthen country capacity; and on learning, communications, and technology solutions to accelerate and heighten impact.

Panagora Group seeks a Senior Grants Specialist for the USAID-funded Localize Global Health Security (LGHS) project. LGHS supports local partners to address gaps in health security as identified in national health security capacity assessments. LGHS complements the multisectoral cross-technical approaches of other GHS programs to move countries closer to achieving the 2028 Global Health Security Agenda targets. As a result of this support, local partners will be able to address critical caps in health security through grants and technical assistance in prioritized technical areas, strengthen the organizational capacity of local entities to effectively manage the implementation of health security technical interventions and expand global knowledge base on approaches and best practices for local entities conducting global health security interventions.

The Senior Grants Specialist (SGS) will support the development and management of grants that address health security challenges. Reporting to the Deputy Project Director for Grants and Operations (DPD), and working in alignment with other LGHS staff members, local government ministries, local entities, international health organizations, and LGHS stakeholders, the Senior Grants Specialist will support and coordinate a full range of activities required to identify, prepare, and review awards and grants in compliance with USAID regulations. Once the grants are awarded, the SGS will work closely with the technical teams and grantees to set up and maintain a grant management system (with the appropriate tools and operating procedures) that considers the whole grants implementation cycle, including close-out.

This is a full-time remote position in one of the following countries: Kenya, Nigeria, Philippines, South Africa, Uganda, and Zambia. It may require travel to multiple project countries.
