- Description
- USAID's programs in the Southern Africa region aim to increase and integrate trade, fight the HIV/AIDS epidemic, mitigate food insecurity, support democratic processes, protect human rights, fight climate change and wildlife crime, and address cross-border issues. USAID�s operations in the Southern Africa region comprise of country offices in Angola, Botswana, Eswatini (formerly Swaziland), Lesotho, Madagascar, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, South Africa, Zambia and Zimbabwe, and the Power Africa office located in Pretoria. Each Mission/Office manages USAID country programs that aim to advance development through bilateral relationships with respective host country governments. These offices vary in size from full, large-scale Missions led by a USAID Mission Director, to smaller non-presence country offices with few staff. USAID�s offices in those countries rely in varying degrees on services, or alternatively surge support, provided out of the USAID Southern Africa (USAID/SA) regional platform, located in Pretoria, South Africa. In addition to bilateral programming, USAID Southern Africa implements regional activities that aim to complement country-specific programs by addressing cross-border issues and common development needs and provides support services to USAID Missions in the region. USAID/ SA, one of the Agency�s largest Missions, also houses and provides support to two other operating units in South Africa: The Regional Inspector General and Power Africa. USAID/SA provides technical, programmatic, legal, financial, and administrative services to USAID�s offices in 11 Southern African countries, and it serves as a regional center for conferences and training for the African continent. The USAID/SA Regional Office of Acquisition and Assistance (ROAA) provides acquisition and assistance (A&A) services supporting USAID�s programs in the Southern Africa region, including the bilateral programs in Angola, Botswana, Eswatini, Lesotho, Madagascar, Namibia and South Africa, as well as for cross-border regional programs and for Power Africa. ROAA is comprised of 28 positions that include: eight U.S. direct hires, five US/TCN personal services contractors and fifteen cooperating country nationals (CCN). ROAA also provides technical oversight for theA&A team at USAID/ Madagascar. ROAA�s portfolio is currently comprised of approximately 150 A&A awards with a total life of project value of $3.7 billion for development assistance activities throughout Southern Africa and across the continent. The Contractor serves as a Senior Regional Acquisition and Assistance Specialist (SRAAS) located within USAID/SA ROAA in Pretoria, South Africa. While the ROAA serves a number of countries, the Contractor primarily works on actions relating to assigned portfolio(s).�The incumbent is expected to deal with cross cultural issues and occasional travel is required.�USAID/SA and its client Missions and Offices (in the non-presence countries) have a wide range of multi-million-dollar actions and very complex multisectoral programs with high funding levels.�
