Aquarius Population Health is an independent healthcare consultancy based in London. We develop bespoke solutions to address our clients’ needs and unique challenges.

Our speciality is developing creative ways to explore and solve healthcare problems. We generate the insight and evidence to support informed decisions that can impact on policy and commercialisation and improve patient care in an efficient way.

We work to tight commercial timelines, and understand that the world of healthcare is fast-moving – and that the right answers are needed quickly to achieve business goals. 

Ashanti Development (AD) is a charity which was set up in 2005, when London-based Ghanaians asked their friends and neighbours for help to improve the lives of people in their home villages. We are a 100 per cent volunteer charity and pay no salaries or wages for work done in the UK, though we employ staff in Ghana.

We are looking for healthcare professionals to spend 2 weeks to 6 months in Central Ghana to work as volunteers at Mampong Government Hospital and/or one of the five community clinics we have built and/or with the Public Health Directorate. The charity has other work strands including water, sanitation and hygiene training, farm support and income generating activities. If interested in volunteering in these areas please contact us.

Mampong Hospital serves 6 local authorities and has 98 beds in the general wing and a further 56 elsewhere including the Maternity wing. There are daily outpatient clinics, with specialist clinics for HIV and Sickle cell, and an emergency department. It is short of staff in all departments and much of the day-to-day care is provided by physician assistants and nurses.  Malaria is the most common indication for admission followed by anaemia, pneumonia, diarrhoea, typhoid, hypertension and diabetes. Projects in Public Health include screening in communicable and non-communicable diseases, women and girls’ health, and children’s nutrition

Ashanti Development’s headquarters are in the village of Gyetiase, some 3km distant from Mampong. The village has changed little over the centuries but now has electricity and an internet connection. The community and the AD Ghanaian team of  Nicholas, Christobel and Elizabeth welcome volunteers & do all they can to help.  The charity will provide volunteers with free board, lodging and laundry.

The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) helps people around the world affected by armed conflict and other violence, doing everything we can to protect their lives and dignity and to relieve their suffering, often working with our Red Cross and Red Crescent partners around the world.

People know they can count on the ICRC to carry out a range of life-saving activities in conflict zones and to work closely with communities to understand and meet their needs. Our experience and expertise mean we can respond quickly and effectively, without taking sides. 

While our traditional health activities (first aid, war surgery, physical rehabilitation and health care in detention) have lost none of their relevance, other disciplines (primary health care, comprehensive hospital care, and mental health and psychosocial support) are increasingly our focus.

Operational context

• In line with the principle of neutrality, the ICRC does not assign personnel to a country of which they are nationals

• Candidates must be in good health and will have to do a medical check-up prior to departure in the field

• Candidates must possess a driving license (for manual transmission vehicles)

• Candidates must be prepared to accept unaccompanied postings (i.e. no spouse, partner, children or dependents) for at least the first 24 months to any location

General criteria

• Degree and valid license to practice in your country of residence

• Depending on the role, 2-5 years of professional clinical experience with 1- 2 years of international humanitarian experience

• Experience in project management and public health

• Proficiency in English. Knowledge of a second language of relevance to the ICRC, such as French, Arabic, Spanish or Russian, is a strong asset or mandatory for some roles.

 We are looking for health professionals to leave on humanitarian assignments, worldwide for generally 1 year (with some exceptions), under a ‘mobile contract’.

We recruit over 40 different health profiles, including physicians, nurses, midwives, physical therapists and psychologists, often with additional specialties in surgery/OT, anesthesiology, emergency care, paediatrics, obstetrics and gynaecology, psychiatry and public health. We also need paramedics, orthotists prosthetists, physiotherapists, clinical psychologists and nutritionists.

Why leave with us?

•            You will work with colleagues from various fields of expertise (water engineers, logisticians, deminers, ..) in a cross-cutting manner to help victims of conflict and other situations of violence. 

•            You will be dealing with humanitarian situations that require experience, resourcefulness and innovation in order to achieve the best possible impact, often with limited resources.

•            You will work for a humanitarian organisation, adding to your sense of achievement in alleviating the suffering of people and communities and giving you the chance to promote humanitarian values in these turbulent times.

 What we offer

•            A competitive employment package with attractive social benefits: a salary paid on thirteen months, a pension plan, medical and accident cover, annual paid leave: 20–27.5 days, accommodation provided and paid by ICRC, one paid return ticket home every year, etc.
