We are looking for a dynamic and highly committed **Project Manager** with a
passion for working in low to middle income countries to co-ordinate our study
examining culturally contextualised technological solutions for people with
epilepsy in resource poor settings.
Epilepsy is one of the most common serious neurological conditions affecting
around 50 million people worldwide. 80 to 85% of people with epilepsy live in
low resource settings where access to accurate diagnosis and appropriate
treatment can be very limited. The lack of infrastructure and the deep
stigmatisation of epilepsy further compound these difficulties. The Oxford
Martin Programme on Global Epilepsy aims to tackle the diagnostic gap by
building culturally contextualised technologies that can be delivered at
scale. The eventual aim is empower primary health care workers to help
streamline the care pathway for people who have seizures.
The current role is instrumental in the delivery of our Oxford Martin
Programme on Global Epilepsy. If appointed, you will be dedicated to ensuring
the success of the project and be committed to improving the care of people
with epilepsy worldwide. You will be co-ordinating a large, ambitious
programme with multiple inter-locking workstreams. You will need to liaise
with multiple partners across Brazil, Ghana, India, Kenya, South Africa,
Tanzania, Zimbabwe – our core collaborating sites. You will also be working
with Principal Investigators across multiple departments within University of
Oxford. As such, time management, cultural sensitivity and the ability to
deliver work on time and to a very high standard are mandatory requirements.
You will need to have outstanding communication skills across all media and be
keen to develop and deliver communication strategies for this and our other
programmes in Global Epilepsy. Being a team player with an egalitarian
approach and having clear regard for our international colleagues is
essential.
Details of our programme can be accessed here and we are very happy to answer
any queries you may have.
