About the Syphilis-Free Start Team Every year, there are over 200,000 stillbirths and newborn deaths and over 100,000 instances of disability among newborns because of a preventable infection — maternal syphilis. In fact, the infection causes more stillbirths and newborn deaths than pediatric HIV, yet receives only a fraction of the resources. Without effective and timely treatment, syphilis infections in pregnancy continue placing undue burdens on pregnant women and health systems globally. At Evidence Action, we’re proving that addressing maternal syphilis is possible. Through our Syphilis-Free Start program, our aim is to close syphilis screening gaps via introduction of HIV/syphilis dual testing and to close treatment gaps by implementing strategies to address context-specific treatment barriers for women who test positive for syphilis. We’ve already reached mothers across Liberia, Zambia, Cameroon, and Côte d’Ivoire, with new pilots underway in Indonesia and more countries eager to follow. As Senior Program Manager, you will provide strategic leadership and oversight for the current country portfolio. You’ll collaborate with a mission-driven team across multiple countries to deliver results that save lives.
