  • Upskilling MEL staff across multiplier development and humanitarian agencies

If we could compose the perfect you…

…You are able to problem-solve, multi-task, determine priorities and take initiative. You have highly developed interpersonal skills and the ability to train and upskill staff. You have a passion for your sector and are driven to use your specialised knowledge to build local capability.

This role requires:

  • Experience evaluating programs in the Pacific, ideally in Vanuatu

  • Evaluation design skills including the development of sample sizes and sampling techniques
  • An ability to balance multiple projects, priorities and stakeholders at one time

Working at Save the Children is more than just a job.

It's the feeling of knowing that your work is contributing to making the world a better place for children and working with others who feel the same. We offer a competitive salary, a friendly and flexible work environment, and great career opportunities - both locally and internationally.
