About the Project

  • The Fleming Fund aims to respond to the global threat of drug-resistant infections, also known as antimicrobial resistance (AMR).
  • The aim of the Fleming Fund’s program of country, regional and fellowship grants, managed by Mott MacDonald, is to improve the ability of Fleming Fund countries to diagnose drug resistant bacteria, and generate data and strengthen surveillance to inform policy and practice at national and international levels.
  • During Phase I, support has been provided to >200 surveillance sites in Africa and Asia. About two-thirds of these have been in the human health sector with the remainder being in animal health, veterinary services, food safety and environment laboratories.
  • Phase II of the Fleming Fund is set to provide further support to Fleming Fund countries. Investing in similar areas, the program focusses on four outcomes:
    • Production of quality AMR/U/C and burden data
    • Quality analyses of data
    • Sharing analyses and data with decision-makers
    • Promoting sustainable investment to counter AMR

About the Role

  • The Project Director (PD) is responsible for leading, coordinating, and managing all activities for the Fleming Fund One Health project in Nigeria.
  • The PD is responsible and accountable for the development, regular update and implementation of the country work plan and budget to ensure attainment of the program goals and objectives in line with the project’s mandate and approaches.
  • The PD is the primary liaison between the project and the Fleming Fund, Mott MacDonald, Government counterparts, stakeholders, and other partners and grantees.
  • The Project Director is accountable for the management of the project team and provides strategic and technical guidance and works closely with the assigned US-based Portfolio Manager, other project home office technical and operational staff, and other MSH projects in the country.
  • The PD ensures the timely and quality delivery of project products and activities and supervises in-country project staff.
  • The PD will draw on global best practices, MSH’s global support resources, and ensure that they and their staff contribute to MSH’s global learning and strategic thought leadership in global health security.
