Integrating qualitative findings with telemetry and survey data to develop a holistic understanding of impact, progress against indicators and our Theory of Change
Collecting and analysing data and feedback from partners, end users and stakeholders eg. interviews, surveys and the development of case studies

Ensuring the secure and organised storage of M&E data and supporting system improvements for capture and access
Supporting fundraising and communications through evidence-based storytelling and impact narratives

If you don’t meet all the criteria but you’re inspired by Jangala's mission and are eager to work on programmes that help some of the world’s most excluded populations, we want to hear from you.

Excellent interpersonal skills, including the ability to collaborate across technical and programme teams, and with partners
An understanding of data protection principles, and an appreciation of ethical considerations of M & E activities involving underserved communities, including in conflict-affected countries
