Senior Manager, SRHR - Innovative Financing

The Senior Manager, SRHR - HIV, TB and Innovative Financing will lead a portfolio of catalytic investment opportunities to improve access, affordability and supply security for priority HIV, TB and SRHR products and delivery models. The role sits at the intersection of strategy, markets and transaction execution, working with manufacturers, procurement platforms, governments, investors and global health institutions to translate access barriers into practical financing structures that support improved health outcomes in low- and middle-income countries.

The role combines investment pipeline development with hands-on deal execution, identifying where catalytic capital can address market failures and selecting the financing instruments, partners and commercial terms needed to make investments viable. This may include prefinance facilities, procurement guarantees, working capital facilities, volume commitments, recoverable grants and private sector outcomes funds.

The role offers breadth across market shaping, commodity financing, manufacturer partnerships, investment structuring, procurement reform and transition planning across CIFF's HIV, TB and SRHR portfolio. The role is expected to maintain a prioritised transaction pipeline and take approximately three to five deals from concept to approval or launch annually, with an indicative aggregate value of US $25-50 million, subject to portfolio need, partner readiness and available capital.

• Prepare investment papers, decision memos and financial analyses that clearly set out strategic fit, expected impact, cost-effectiveness, risks and trade-offs

• Work with the Senior Manager, Product Introduction & Market Development to translate product-specific access barriers into investable market-shaping priorities, including registration, demand generation, route to market, procurement readiness, manufacturing capacity and affordability
• Assess manufacturer economics, supplier constraints, quality assurance pathways, technology transfer requirements and LMIC market-entry barriers to identify where CIFF capital or influence can change access outcomes
