Job Posting Organization:
The Clinton Health Access Initiative, Inc. (CHAI) is a global health organization founded in 2002, primarily in response to the HIV/AIDS epidemic. Its mission is to save lives and reduce the burden of disease in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). CHAI works at the invitation of governments and collaborates with the private sector to create and sustain high-quality health systems. Over the years, CHAI has expanded its focus beyond HIV to include infectious diseases like COVID-19, malaria, and tuberculosis, as well as non-communicable diseases such as cancer and diabetes. The organization operates in 40 countries and employs a diverse team dedicated to maximizing sustainable impact at scale, ensuring that solutions are led by governments and designed for national scale. CHAI is committed to diversity and inclusion, recognizing that a diverse workforce enhances its mission and effectiveness.

Job Overview:
The Associate position within CHAI’s Market Shaping Team (MST) is designed to support market shaping strategies across various programmatic areas.

The Associate will be responsible for developing market access strategies for preeclampsia and maternal anemia-related commodities, as well as for AI-supported diagnostics. The ideal candidate should possess strong analytical and problem-solving skills, be able to synthesize large amounts of data, and work independently while managing multiple priorities. The position requires collaboration with various stakeholders and a commitment to improving access to health commodities in LMICs.

Duties and Responsibilities:
The Associate will undertake a variety of responsibilities, including: conducting market analyses to identify opportunities for enhancing the affordability and availability of health commodities; developing demand forecasts and uptake models to inform pricing strategies; executing cost and impact analyses for innovative financing and procurement models; analyzing country introduction and scale-up requirements to support government adoption; preparing presentations and reports to inform global policy; collaborating with internal and external stakeholders to design and execute interventions; developing market analytic frameworks and tools; supporting business development efforts; and maintaining relationships with senior stakeholders across CHAI and partner organizations.
