Monitoring and Evaluation Team Leader (INT0890)

Contract Type:One year with possibility of renewal

Oxfam takes action against poverty all over the world. That includes fighting the symptoms of poverty and inequality. Join us as a key figure in our Zimbabwe team and you’ll help us to have more impact than ever before.

The role

Shaping and strengthening the way Oxfam works and increasing the impact of programmes is a substantial undertaking. Embedding monitoring, evaluation and learning systems, you’ll work collaboratively and inclusively with staff and partners to give thorough grounding in everything from monitoring methods right through to evaluation and analysis for the project in question. That means developing and delivering training plans as well as offering expert advice to enhance quality, coherence and effectiveness. You will also be involved in the documentation of project visibility through structured assessments, case studies and research. Beyond that, you’ll make sure we share what we learn and feed those lessons into reviews and future planning processes – really helping us become more effective.

What we’re looking for

To drive improvements across our teams, we need someone who is highly skilled at using research methods for monitoring, evaluation and learning. Someone who has developed and delivered successful training and coaching initiatives, and who has strong technical skills and experience in both the quantitative and qualitative sides of social science research. A strong critical thinker with an analytical mindset, you’ll also bring us a proven ability to communicate complex ideas, simply, effectively and engagingly. This experience should be supported by at least a university degree in Social Sciences, Developments studies, Agriculture or Economics with at least three years experience in the development context.
