Welcome to PSI!
PSI is a network of locally rooted, globally connected organizations working to achieve consumer-powered healthcare — people-centered health systems that ensure quality, affordable care wherever and whenever it is needed. Our origins in sexual and reproductive health have grown into a broader mission. Today, we work with the public and private sectors as well as local communities, prioritizing people’s voice and choice and developing solutions to meet their essential health needs. Over the past five decades, we have helped push boundaries, break taboos, set trends, and develop innovative solutions to complex global health challenges.

Join us!

The Delivering Innovation in Self-Care (DISC) project is a multi-country initiative funded by the Children’s Investment Fund Foundation (CIFF), with co-funding from the Gates Foundation. DISC works with Ministries of Health and partners in countries including Nigeria, Uganda, Malawi, Zambia, Mozambique, Pakistan, Ethiopia, DRC, and Kenya to expand women’s access to self-care sexual and reproductive health (SRH) methods, particularly DMPA-SC self-injection, through demand generation, provider training, and health system strengthening.

Reliable demand and supply planning is critical to DISC’s success, ensuring that women can access their chosen method without interruption. DISC has made meaningful progress in improving supply visibility and linking supply to real demand across administrative levels in its current and planned countries.

PSI seeks a Technical Project Advisor (TAI) to lead DISC’s efforts to ensure that demand forecasts drive better supply decisions and that teams can respond quickly to emerging supply risks. It will involve integrating timely data from multiple sources, improving visibility at all levels, and enabling proactive, data-driven decisions that work across diverse country contexts and systems.

This role will strengthen end-to-end supply chain visibility, planning, and coordination across the projects footprint. Combining strategic leadership in demand forecasting with operational oversight of supply planning, the Advisor will support internal and external capacity building efforts, and work with DISC Country Leads, Implementing Partners, and Ministries of Health to ensure that national and subnational supply decisions are timely, accurate, and based on robust data. This role will report to the DISC Deputy Project Director.
