Girl Hub's mission is to empower the 250 million adolescent girls living in poverty to reach their full potential. Girls are a proven force for change and the catalyst to end global poverty – it's called the Girl Effect. When you improve girls' lives through education, health, safety and economic opportunity, these changes have a positive ripple effect on their families, communities and nations. Our work aims to shift the social norms that hold girls back, and drive better investments that directly benefit girls. Everything we do is based on what girls tell us they need and what will work for them. Girl Hub is a strategic collaboration between DFID and the Nike Foundation. We currently operate in Rwanda, Nigeria and Ethiopia with headquarters in London.

We are offering a unique opportunity for an experienced researcher/monitoring and evaluation professional to join our Girl Hub team in Rwanda. Rwanda is one of the most progressive countries in Africa. It has a fast growing economy, a rich culture and is leading the way in achieving its Millennium Development Goals. Three years ago, the Girl Hub team created the Ni Nyampinga brand, Rwanda’s first teen brand, developed by and for girls. In a short time, it has grown to become a much-loved and trusted brand in Rwandan culture.

If you are looking for an opportunity to take your rigorous research methodology skills and M&E experience and be challenged to apply it to the level of difficult to measure issues, this is the right position for you. This role will be key in helping the organization produce evidence on the effectiveness of perception change and girl’s empowerment and applying new technology and methodologies to this task. The successful candidate will work with MLR colleagues across the organization to promote engagement in the rig orous use of evidence-based learning, ensuring that Girl Hub has a strong reputation amongst the international development community.

The Senior MLR Manager will work with Girl Hub's cross-functional team (including Insights, Brand, Communications & Girl Specialists), and with local and international partners. The Girl Hub Rwanda office is situated in beautiful Kigali and employs over 30 people, a mix of local and international staff.
