HAI EUROPE SEEKS A CAMPAIGNS DIRECTOR
Health Action International (HAI) is an international, informal network of
public interest groups and individuals working to promote the essential
drugs concept, access to essential medicines and rational drug use. The
network has regional offices for Europe, Latin America, Africa and Asia.
The HAI Europe office, based in Amsterdam, is looking for a dynamic and
skilled person to coordinate its advocacy and campaign work.
This post�s key responsibilities include developing and promoting HAI policy
through advocacy and campaign work in association with HAI Europe
members, staff from regional offices and external strategic partners.
This work will be done in close co-operation with other members of
the HAI Europe office staff. The Campaigns Director will also assist
in fundraising efforts and work to identify issues relevant to HAI
Europe�s mission and its current and potential work programmes.
Current campaigns include international issues such as access to essential
medicines, unethical drug promotion and the impact of private/public
interactions. Special attention will be given to European aspects of these
topics.
The Campaigns Director is expected to have proven project management
skills and extensive lobbying experience. Analytical skills relevant
to policy
development are also essential. The preferred applicant should have
experience in effective network communication and consultation, and
working with the media. Clear and convincing written and oral
communication is also needed. Fluency in English is essential and an
understanding of other European languages is desirable. Familiarity
with the HAI network and the European Union is an advantage.
HAI Europe offers a competitive salary in a pleasant, informal working
environment. This senior position is for 32 hours per week and some travel
will be required. The Campaigns Director reports to the HAI Europe Coordinator.
EU residents are encouraged to apply. The planned closing date is 20 March
