Global Solutions Venture (GSV) – a joint-venture partnership between ZemiTek, LLC and Dexis is implementing the Long-term Exceptional Technical Assistance Project (LEAP), a mechanism used by USAID to battle against infectious diseases such as malaria, HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, neglected tropical diseases, and pandemic influenza. This initiative aims to address the complex human resource challenges faced by national infectious disease programs in USAID-supported countries.
LEAP seeks to create self-reliant and efficiently managed national infectious disease programs in low- and middle-income USAID-supported countries. This will be achieved by deploying technical advisors and subject matter experts within the national programs. Embedding these experts has been a proven model that has consistently led to the development of national leadership, evidence-based policies, best practices, improved essential systems, effective program implementation, and enhanced coordination with stakeholders, ultimately resulting in self-reliance and sustainability.
ZemiTek is currently seeking a Senior Procurement and Contract Specialist (SPCS) to support the Director of Procurement and Finance (DPF) in effective and compliant project implementation and administration. They will be responsible for ensuring contract compliance, procurement management, and quality assurance in project implementation and technical deliverables.
They are responsible for procurement of services, materials, components, and supplies for the company and its partner in a Joint Venture in accordance with Procurement procedures, contract requirements, and federal acquisition regulations. They will liaise with internal and external stakeholders, work independently to meet deadlines, and achieve project goals. The incumbent will work with other technical specialists and administrative staff to support the LEAP project.
