About This Role
This role blends technical data analysis with on-the-ground monitoring and evaluation in an agricultural development context. You will not just sit behind a screen—you will support field teams, train development agents, and help translate data into actionable improvements for rural livelihoods. It is ideal for a data professional who wants to apply their skills in a mission-driven, international NGO setting, rather than a corporate or tech-only environment.
What the Requirements Say About This Role
The position calls for a mid-level professional with three to five years of experience who is comfortable moving between technical data systems and field realities. The emphasis on CommCare and M&E suggests the employer values practical experience with mobile data collection tools and a willingness to train non-technical staff. They are looking for someone who can bridge the gap between raw data and real-world program decisions, not just a pure analyst.
How to Approach This Application
Highlight any experience you have with M&E systems, agricultural projects, or working with development agents in rural Ethiopia. If you have used CommCare, ODK, or similar platforms, make that explicit in your CV and cover letter. Emphasize your ability to train others and your comfort with field-based work, as the role requires frequent coordination with project teams outside an office setting.
Who This Role Suits
This role is best suited for a data analyst with a passion for social impact and experience in NGO or agricultural development contexts. It is moderately competitive, as it requires a niche combination of technical and field skills that may not suit purely corporate analysts.
