Key responsibilities
- Leading analytical workstreams within client projects – designing the approach, managing the data and evidence, and owning outputs from start to finish.
- Managing small to medium sized client projects – responsible for developing workplans, overseeing project finances, managing internal and external teams, and maintaining project administration.
- Conducting and directing rigorous quantitative and qualitative analysis across early years projects: system diagnostics, financing and costing studies, public-private partnership feasibility, workforce analyses, and policy benchmarking.
- Developing core client deliverables – technical reports, investment cases, policy notes, slide decks – and presenting findings with clarity and authority to senior audiences.
- Engaging directly with clients in working sessions, technical reviews, and in-country engagements.
- Mentoring and supporting junior colleagues – contributing to a culture of siyakhana (growing together)
- Contributing to proposal development and business development, including methodology sections, workplans, and commercials.
- At Senior Associate level, this work further extends to leading client relationships and business development processes, reviewing work and outputs of more junior colleagues, and owning workstreams within the team. You will be supported by experienced Principal and Partner-level colleagues and given the space to develop. But you will be trusted with responsibility early because that is how excellent consultants are made, and because we are investing in you as a future leader of this practice.
