We’re thrilled to announce four exciting opportunities to join the dynamic Evidence & Impact team at MSI Reproductive Choices! We’re looking for talented, driven individuals who are passionate about sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR), and who thrive on data, evidence generation, and impact communication. This is a chance to help shape how we measure and disseminate the real-world impact of our work — not from the sidelines, but by rolling up your sleeves and diving in. If you're a bold thinker who loves turning complex data into compelling stories, thrives in fast-evolving environments, and is excited about helping build a future-focused, resilient team, we want to hear from you. You’ll be part of a team that champions innovative research and drives sector-shaping insights — with the chance to become a thought leader and influencer in the global SRHR space. Come push boundaries with us and help drive meaningful change around the world.

Why This Matters 

In a world where 218 million women lack access to contraception, evidence isn't just academic—it's life-changing. Your work will directly influence: Delivering of lifechanging services to millions of women; $2+ billion in annual global SRHR investments that transforms healthcare delivery across 36 countries 

The Opportunity 

We are recruiting roles to spearhead different dimensions of our evidence ecosystem. Whether you are inside or outside SRH, or from health economics, development research, tech analytics, or academic evaluation, we want people who are driven by impact and excel at translating complex data into compelling action. If that matters to you, then we want you. 

About MSI

MSI Reproductive Choices is one of the world’s leading providers of sexual and reproductive healthcare. We believe that everyone should have the right to choose. From contraception to safe abortion and life-saving post-abortion care, we are committed to delivering compassionate, affordable, high-quality services for all.

Today, our organisation has almost 9,000 team members working in 36 countries across the world. Our success lies in the fact that MSI teams are locally led, entrepreneurial and results-driven, and are passionate about delivering high quality, client-centred care in their own communities. As a social business, we focus on sustainable delivery, efficiency, and funding models that are built to last, so that the women and girls we serve today will have a choice in the future too.

We know that access to reproductive choice is life changing. For some, it can mean the ability to complete an education or start a career. For others, it means being able to look after the family they already have. For everyone, it means the freedom to decide their own future, creating a fairer, more equal world.
