Who we are
We’re Population Services International (PSI), the world’s leading non-profit social marketing organization. We work to make it easier for people in the developing world to lead healthier lives and plan the families they desire by marketing affordable products and services that range from mosquito nets to contraceptives to HIV testing.
There are over 9,000 “PSI’ers” around the world. It’s a motley group of entrepreneurs and professionals with a diverse range of backgrounds all the way from the medical industry to the music business, all with unique skills we bring to the job.
Join us!
Though contested by other program departments, the AEE team is clearly the best at PSI. AEE is known as the jump in, roll up your sleeves and get it done region. While our budgets are smaller than others in the organization, we have the passion, drive and energy to implement new and existing innovations in global health. We also have great food. AND BOLLYWOOD! Currently, we have programs operating in Bangladesh Cambodia, Central Asia, India, Laos, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, Papua New Guinea and Vietnam.
We are looking for a Financial Analyst to help us provide support to PSI’s social marketing programs in the Asia and Eastern Europe region. We are looking for someone with finance acumen and strong business and analytical abilities (especially with numbers) and the belief that “the devil is in details”. An ideal candidate has worked in the private sector, has experience with creating and managing budgets, has done high level financial analysis and worked on preparing and reviewing financial reports.
