Job description

Overview

ThinkWell is a global health organization that partners with governments, development agencies, and the private sector to reimagine how health systems are financed, governed, and delivered. We specialize in health financing, public financial management, policy reform, and systems strengthening, with a focus on making health systems more sustainable, equitable, and resilient.

In addition to our work with country governments and donors, we collaborate with pharmaceutical companies, diagnostics firms, and industry coalitions to navigate policy landscapes, shape sustainable financing solutions, and expand access to essential health products in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Our team brings a blend of technical expertise, policy insight, and strategic thinking to drive impact at the intersection of health policy and commercial engagement.

With offices and projects in Africa and Asia, ThinkWell is committed to delivering innovative, locally grounded solutions to today’s most pressing health challenges.

The Opportunity

We are seeking a Technical Advisor / Senior Technical Advisor to support a portfolio of global health and commercial health policy engagements with life sciences. This role is ideal for someone who combines strategic consulting experience with a strong grasp of health policy, pharmaceutical market dynamics, and access strategy in LMICs. You’ll help shape how industry partners engage in policy reform, sustainable financing, and market-shaping efforts across a range of health areas, from vaccines to oncology to reproductive health.

What You’ll Do

  • Lead and deliver strategy engagements with pharmaceutical and life sciences clients focused on market access, policy shaping, financing mechanisms, and long-term sustainability.
  • Translate health policy trends into commercial insight—including regulatory developments, procurement modalities, health technology assessment, and reimbursement policies in LMICs.
  • Develop high-impact deliverables, such as policy briefs, investment cases, stakeholder maps, and market opportunity analyses tailored to government and private sector audiences.
  • Support client relationship management, including work planning, coordination across stakeholders, and delivery of executive-level presentations and workshops.
  • Engage with country teams and ThinkWell’s public sector experts to ensure policy and financing strategies are grounded in local systems and realities.
  • Contribute to new business development by drafting proposals, concept notes, and pitching ideas aligned with ThinkWell’s strategic growth in the private sector and life sciences.

What We Offer

  • The opportunity to shape strategy and policy at the forefront of access and sustainability debates in global health.
  • A flexible, global team environment with colleagues from government, industry, and development sectors.
  • The chance to work directly with decision-makers—from Ministries of Health to global life sciences clients.
  • Room to lead, grow, and innovate within a nimble, values-driven organization.
  • Qualifications

  • Master\'s degree in public health, public policy, business, or a related field.
  • 6–10 years of professional experience, including at least 2–3 years in management consulting, life sciences strategy, or a policy advisory role.
  • Experience working with or for pharmaceutical or diagnostics companies, especially in access, public policy, market development, or strategic affairs.
  • Strong understanding of health financing and policy issues in LMICs, particularly how they intersect with commercial strategy.
  • Exceptional skills in client engagement, structured problem-solving, visual and written communication (e.g., PowerPoint, memos).
  • Entrepreneurial mindset and ability to thrive in a fast-moving, mission-driven environment.
  • International experience and working knowledge of global health donors, mechanisms (e.g., Gavi, Global Fund), and public-private engagement models preferred.
