Impact and Value Manager

Elrha is a global organisation that finds solutions to complex humanitarian problems through research and innovation.

We are looking to recruit an Impact and Value Manager to lead an exciting new initiative on Value for Money for Humanitarian Innovation. As part of our Monitoring, Evaluation, Accountability and Learning (MEAL) team, you will have the opportunity to help shape an approach to Value for Money that is appropriate to humanitarian contexts and responsive to the specific challenges of assessing ‘value’ and ‘impact’ for humanitarian innovation.

• Deep understanding of humanitarian practice.
• Outstanding analytical skills, using both quantitative and qualitative approaches to analysis and problem-solving.
• Excellent communication skills, both written and oral, with the ability to communicating complex ideas with clarity and enthusiasm, targeting them to different audiences, often without a Value for Money background.

Experience of humanitarian innovation, humanitarian programming, and MEAL would also be an advantage.

If you want to be part of an organisation that creates positive change in the humanitarian sector, then join us and we’ll give you every opportunity to succeed.

We offer:

• Remote working as standard – staff can access office bases in London, Cardiff, Edinburgh and Manchester if required/ appropriate. We expect staff to attend team meetings and away days in person as required.
