Dexis is a dynamic professional services firm dedicated to partnering with government and community leaders both in the U.S. and internationally to achieve critical social outcomes in a rapidly changing world.
At Dexis, you will experience a corporate culture of inclusiveness, respect, fairness, and trust. You will be given the means and mentorship needed to succeed, and your creativity will be rewarded.
Global Solutions Ventures (GSV) – a joint-venture partnership between ZemiTek, LLC and Dexis Consulting Group – is implementing the Long-term Exceptional Technical Assistance Project (LEAP Global), a mechanism originally used by USAID to battle against infectious diseases such as malaria, HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, neglected tropical diseases, and pandemic influenza. As of July 1, 2025, LEAP Global transitioned to the U.S. Department of State (DOS). This initiative aims to address the complex human resource challenges faced by national infectious disease programs in the USA-supported countries.
The intervention of this project is to hire and embed technical expert advisors and subject matter experts within government entities. By directly embedding the technical expertise within the national programs, LEAP provides long-term, sustainable lifesaving support to empower host governments to lead and manage key aspects of their infectious disease portfolios and improve coordination between the U.S. Government and the host country.
The Senior Human Resources for Health Advisor will support the Office of Foreign Assistance of the U.S. Department of State Embassy Kinshasa carrying out the America First Global Health Strategy. The primary focus of the Advisor will be technical support to develop a Political Economic Analysis of Frontline health workers management and payment transition operational plan in alignment with the U.S,-DRC Health Cooperation Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) signed on February 26, 2026.
This position specifically supports Section 2.4 of the MOU, with human resources for health responsibilities spanning all health service delivery areas (HIV, TB, malaria, maternal and child health, nutrition, global health security including polio eradication) to strengthen the entire health system rather than individual disease programs.
The Senior Advisor will support the Ministry of Health, Hygiene, and Social Security (MOH) for improving performance and retention of human resources for health of front-line health workers, including community health workers. The Senior Consultant will identify policy and practice bottlenecks and facilitate solutions through coordinated technical support and facilitation of effort through the Ministry’s programming and administration efforts along with the health donors group members.
The Senior Advisor will identify technical and skills bottleneck and facilitate solutions through close mentorship. S/he will be based at the MOH Human Resources Division Office. The Senior Consultant will receive day to day direction from the Division head. S/he will be reporting to U.S. Embassy Public Health Advisor and Frontline Health Workers workstream Lead bi-weekly. The Advisor will support the MOH in carrying out life-saving humanitarian assistance (LHA) service delivery in full alignment with the new Presidential Executive Order (EO) directives.
Reporting:
The Advisor will submit a monthly report to designated officer at the U.S. Embassy Office of Foreign Assistance by the 5th day of the following month. Reports should demonstrate how workforce activities support integrated health system strengthening across all MOU Areas of Cooperation. Additionally, the Advisor will submit a weekly progress report to U.S. Embassy/Department of State (and participate in weekly calls) to include a short paragraph about main successes for that week.
