But if ever there was a time for action, the time is now. We know that inequitable access, poor quality and insufficient resources continue to prevent millions of children from enjoying an education that unlocks their full potential.

Leading internal research projects to inform programme decision making, you will enable us to build our evidence base for how to deliver equitable, high-quality secondary education, scale our impact and share our findings with our partners.

You will provide support and troubleshooting to MEL Leads based in the countries we work in with the design, running and maintenance of systems that provide timely and relevant data, particularly assisting PEAS Uganda and Zambia teams.

Who we are looking for 

No matter the role, we are looking for people who believe in what we do and how we do it; you will be passionate about transforming lives through education and aligned to our values.

However, to be considered as our Impact and Data Lead, you will also need:

• At least five years’ experience in an MEL or data analysis role
• The ability to work as part of a team and on your own initiative
• Excellent communication and writing skills
• Strong data analysis and presentation skills
• Excellent MS Excel skills
• At least a BA or BSc degree in a discipline related to MEL or data analysis
