Requirements

Education

Bachelor’s degree in Statistics, Economics, Public Health, Development Studies, Social Sciences, Communications, Data Science, or a related field. Postgraduate training in M&E, public policy, data analytics, or a related discipline is an added advantage.

Experience

• Minimum 4–6 years of relevant experience in M&E, research, communications, or insights/analytics roles, with at least 2 years focused on producing reports and insights for senior or external audiences.
  
• Demonstrated portfolio of high-quality reports, dashboards, presentations, or learning products you personally led from data to final output.
  
• Experience working with monitoring or program data in education, nutrition, public health, or large-scale service delivery contexts is strongly preferred.
  
• Experience collaborating with BI/data engineering, design, and program teams to deliver polished, decision-ready outputs.
  

Reporting & insight generation

• Lead the production of internal and external impact reports, donor reports, board updates, learning briefs, and presentations — owning the end-to-end process from data pull to final design-quality output.
  
• Translate complex monitoring and evaluation data into clear narratives, visuals, and “so what” insights that help leadership and program teams make decisions.
  
• Maintain a reporting calendar that maps every recurring deliverable to its data sources, owners, review cycles, and deadlines, and ensures timeliness across all reporting commitments.
  
• Balance methodological precision with communication clarity: keep the thread of sample size, design, and limitations intact internally, while producing simple, decision-ready facts externally.
  

Data visualization & storytelling

• Partner with Measurement Systems teammates and the BI/Tech team to specify and review dashboards, ensuring reported metrics align with indicator definitions, the Theory of Change, and donor commitments.
  
• Work with designers to produce visually compelling, accessible, and on-brand reports, infographics, and presentation decks; uphold a consistent visual identity for Impact outputs.
  
• Build reusable templates, chart libraries, and report components that improve speed and consistency across the team.
  

Learning & adoption

• Facilitate learning sessions that close the loop between evidence and action — surfacing what data is telling us, what we should change, and who needs to act.
  
• Track recommendations from evaluations, monitoring reviews, and learning sessions through to adoption, and report regularly on what has shifted as a result.
  
• Document institutional knowledge so that lessons travel across teams, regions, and time.
  

Quality assurance & cross-team coordination

• Apply rigorous QA to every output: triangulate figures across sources, audit indicator definitions, verify disaggregation, and ensure citations and methodologies are transparent.
  
• Coordinate with Senior Associates across Data Systems, Field Monitoring, and Research & Evaluation to integrate inputs into coherent insights products.
  
• Support the Manager and Senior Manager with cross-cutting analyses, ad-hoc deep dives, and inputs to strategy and grant-making conversations.
