Job Description
Background:
The change in lifestyle, demography, health services and disease epidemiology engendered an unprecedented increase in cancer burden in African countries including Ethiopia. However, evidence to guide control interventions and improve health services for cancer patients is limited. The Delta consortium Research and Excellence in Africa Capacity to Control and Treat CANcer (REACCT-CAN) aims to bridge this evidence gap. We envision establishing Africa-led, interdisciplinary research groups in oncology and cancer sciences. This will help expand global collaborations and contributes to increased research output on cancer. As part of this initiative, we have launched Ethiopialed consortium on cancer research. The consortium comprises six institutions (universities and research centers) from Egypt, Tanzania, South Africa, Germany and the International Agency for Research on Cancer under the World Health Organization. The consortium envisions further collaboration with more institutions in African, Europe and the United States of America to form an enduring network of institutions that work on cancer research across the African continent.
Long-term goal for REACCT-CAN project is to generate high quality research evidence to inform policy and programmatic implementation for effective primary and secondary cancer prevention programs in Africa and achieve universal access to affordable, high quality and timely diagnosis, treatment, and care for cancer patients. Morbidity and mortality due to cancer will thereby be reduced and lives will be saved.
Job summary:
The project manager ensures that the project is carried out as per the research protocol and operational manuals developed by the different research teams in the consortium. The responsibility includes project administration and providing inputs to the technical execution of the research activities. Human resource management, overseeing the project finance and logistics management units falls under the project administration responsibilities of the manager. Contributions to the technical operations of the study include planning, pre-approval, implementation and completion with publication of research results and following up the subsequent management of research data. These activities will be carried out by working with the Principal Investigator of the project, who is based at Addis Ababa University, and by engaging project leads of the teams in the respective consortium member academic and research institutions.
