Contract Director Jobs

We’re looking for a MEAL specialist who is, at heart, a peacebuilder.  You’ll deputise for the Regional Director as needed, and work collaboratively as a key part of the Regional Leadership Team to shape the strategic direction of Concordis’ future work across the Central African region.

As Regional Head of MEAL, your work will go above and beyond reporting to the donor on logframe outputs and outcomes to the donor, as important as those are.  With your extensive peacebuilding experience, you’ll work with the team to develop and implement sophisticated metrics for measuring these changes over time.  You’ll feed this information back into programme delivery, to ensure programmes remain accountable to the wider population and adapt to the rapidly changing and fragile contexts in which we work.

You’ll also use your flair for writing and your publishing skills to produce more informal news items, telling stories of the impact of our work, and publicising the recommendations that come from dialogues we facilitate.  This will help us amplify voices that are often ignored by decision makers, leading to evidence-based policy making.

Role Duties and Responsibilities:

Develop and implement the programme’s monitoring and evaluation systems

Develop and oversee the systems to monitor and evaluate activities and their impact

Evaluate and enhance existing data collection tools used during previous monitoring exercises

Evaluate and enhance existing metrics to measure attitudinal and behavioural change resulting from programme activities.

Design the implementation plan to monitor and evaluate programme delivery.

Contribute to the development of Concordis’ peacebuilding methodology, policy, strategy and monitoring and evaluation.

Responsible for programme monitoring and evaluation

Ensure the programme adapts and evolves to meet the needs identified, remaining accountable to communities affected by conflict.

Monitor against performance indicators to check that the project is delivering as planned.  Identify issues and agree action plans to address.

Monitor against the Theory of Change and ensure the programme is achieving the intended impact.   If not, identify what needs to change and how to create that change.

Capture learning and identify what worked, what didn’t work and what we’d do differently next time.

Responsible for producing timely internal and external reports

Lead the MEAL team to produce monthly and bi-annual donor reports on all regional programme activities.

Generate clear, professional and visually attractive reports that explain the impact of our work and the recommendations from our dialogues.

Work with the Communications team producing informal news items, telling the story of the impact of our work and publicising the recommendations that come from dialogues facilitated by Concordis.

Create a culture of accountability and learning across the Regional Team

Lead on ensuring staff across the programme understand the role of MEAL in their work and have the skills to operate the required systems and capture the data.

Deliver training and coaching on our approach to MEAL, techniques and tools to the wider team.

Leadership responsibility in the Regional Team

Deputise for the Central African Regional Director in their absence.

As part of the regional Senior Leadership Team oversee the work and staff teams in the regional hubs in CAR, Cameroon, Chad and Sudan.

Do you want to be part of a mission-driven team focused on transforming young people’s lives? If so, we’d love to hear from you!

Role Summary

In 2020/21, the Careers & Enterprise Company appointed its first ever Youth Board Member to the strategic board of directors, to give young people a decision-making voice. The CEC subsequently established a national Youth Advisory Group, to establish and embed an organisation wide approach to capturing Youth Voice, both for the purpose of driving impact and measuring the value of our work. This work has already had a huge impact on the company, and we are looking to embed Youth Voice still further into our work at a more strategic level.

The Youth Advisory Group has three primary functions across The Careers & Enterprise Company, to:

• Govern: challenge CEC’s work to consider youth voice
• Enrich: focus on the future of CEC's strategic direction
• Advise: mobilising their voice in key projects and priorities

The Careers & Enterprise Company is seeking to recruit an 18-month fixed term Youth Engagement Officer to support the administration, facilitation and delivery of youth engagement and participation across our organisation. The role will sit within the Education Development Team and work closely with our Youth Advisory Group and Youth Board members. You will work collaboratively with colleagues across the organisation to champion youth voice and deliver high quality youth participation activities.

This new role has an exciting remit to develop practice, to innovate in youth voice practice, to lead on the operational delivery of the Youth Advisory Group and support with the strategic direction of this work. Reporting directly to the Education Manager responsible for youth voice, but also working effectively across the directorate and across the company, you will manage the delivery of various aspects of our operations including, but not limited to:

1. Effective project management – to ensure that CEC’s YAG has the greatest impact possible, you will work with colleagues from across the business, including at times the Careers Hub Network and put in place the right tools and processes for effective delivery of all elements of the youth voice. This may include establishing and managing relationships across teams, efficient reporting procedures and may extend to other areas of CEC’s ever evolving programme of work.
2. Innovate and design – CEC’s work, and the careers education landscape, is continually evolving. Responding to changing needs of the company, skills of the YAG members and proactively planning for project pivots, will be essential to success in this role. You will look for creative ways to strengthen youth voice across the company.

The Youth Engagement Officer will support the ongoing delivery of our Youth Advisory Group to ensure that young people bring their lived experience to meaningfully and authentically shape our work: from shaping our priorities and projects, through to supporting us to guide policy makers.
