We have an opportunity for someone to join our dynamic, committed Australian team in the role of Senior Project Lead - Impact and Evaluation.

Based in either Perth or Melbourne we are seeking someone with strong skills and experience in leading impact and evaluation programs and initiatives. We have a number of long-term contracts for evaluation and impact measurement work and this senior role will continue to support these projects and take on new evaluation and impact work with new and existing clients.

The successful candidate will have experience in:

• Leading the design of evaluation approaches that match client needs, even in complex situations where flexibility is required to align with budgets, expectations, and our team’s capacity
• Managing relationships with funders, overseeing the work of team members and growing their evaluation skills, undertaking some of the more complex and/or sensitive tasks, and taking overall responsibility for the quality and presentation of deliverables.
• Growing work in this area and an aptitude for promoting our offerings to new clients would be an advantage.

In addition to the above skills, you should also have...

• An entrepreneurial mindset, energy and optimism, and an affinity for outcomes
• A strong network and a passion for building relationships
• Subject matter expertise in areas relevant to social innovation and change
• A commitment to self-determination, equity and systems change.

The roles will be based in either our Melbourne or Perth offices. Each offers slightly different opportunities: In WA, you would step into a leadership and development role with a larger team. In Victoria, you would be helping us grow the networks, relationships and partnerships that will contribute to future sustainability.

Travel may be required, but most of the work will be carried out from a base in either location. We offer a flexible blend of home and office-based working, with the expectation that you’ll spend time in the office.

We offer a fixed term contract for one year at the outset, before considering permanent appointments. Our intention is for these roles to be continuing, business conditions allowing. You can read more about this opportunity on our website Recruiting Impact and Evaluation.
