These exciting new jobs are an opportunity to help shape the health sector’s decarbonization, sustainability and equity agenda in dozens of countries and at a global level. The ideal candidate will have the skills and drive to form relationships and coalitions that help drive transformational systems change. These positions are also an opportunity to work with an amazing, diverse, and committed team of people from every continent who make up Health Care Without Harm's Global Network.

We are searching for dynamic candidates with a diversity experience from either the health sector, or from the climate/environment sector, or ideally, both. We are looking for committed, articulate individuals with strong international backgrounds who have worked across cultures and continents, who can manage large and growing programs, and who can engage at a high level with governments, UN agencies, health leaders and civil society organizations. The job can be located anywhere, although the ideal candidate would be situated within close reach of time zones in the Americas, Europe and Africa.

The two positions are as follows:

International Climate director

They will form part of an International Directors team across Health Care Without Harm program areas, provide facilitative leadership and work collaboratively with a growing team of five global climate staff, alongside climate staff and leaders from Health Care Without Harm offices and partners around the world.

Appy today.

International Sustainability Director

The International Sustainability Director will lead and oversee the strategic development of an integrated global program focussed on sustainable procurement and circularity that will drive market transformation to decarbonize and detoxify the global health care supply chain.

They will form part of an International Directors team across Health Care Without Harm program areas and as such work in close collaboration with the leadership of the global climate program, our Global Green and Healthy Hospitals Network, and committed teams of people based in Health Care Without Harm offices and partners around the world.
