| Beth Tritter |
FGS Global brings back Beth Tritter, who was most recently director of the COVID-19 Response Team at USAID, as partner in its government affairs division, based in Washington, DC.
Tritter served from 2007 to 2015 as managing director in the international affairs practice at the Glover Park Group, one of FGS Global’s legacy companies. She has also served as executive director at the Primary Health Care Performance Initiative, a Gates Foundation-funded initiative involving the WHO, UNICEF, World Bank, Global Fund and others focused on improving primary health care in low- and middle-income countries.
At USAID, Tritter led the team responsible for designing and implementing a significant portion of the US government's global COVID response, including vaccine and therapeutic dose donations, supply chain and cold chain assistance, and last-mile service delivery for vaccinations, testing, treatment and COVID care.
In her new position at FGS Global, Tritter will focus on advocacy and stakeholder engagement across markets on the most significant global issues, while building out the firm’s business where these issues intersect.
“Beth’s roles in complex global crisis responses—working at the intersection of government, global organizations, and the private sector—suit her perfectly to strengthen our International team here in Washington, DC, and to collaborate with our colleagues around the world,” said Joel Johnson, partner and co-CEO of North America at FGS Global.
