Job Title: Monitoring and Evaluation Assistant – Abuja, Nigeria
Job description
Join our dynamic Monitoring and Evaluation team and capture the results in the final year of this exciting project
Duration: As soon as possible to December 2017
Abuja, Nigeria
The Programme
Coffey International Development is managing a five year project in Nigeria to facilitate improvements in the performance and inclusiveness of the wholesale and retail sector. The Growth and Employment in States (GEMS) programme, a joint initiative of DFID, the World Bank and the Federal Government of Nigeria is targeted at four states of Nigeria: Kano, Kaduna, Lagos and Cross River, but as with other components, work in the wholesale and retail component will expand beyond these states where impact can be maximised. In the case of this component, work may be required in the trading centres of Aba and Onitsha (in Abia and Anambra states, respectively).
Like the wider GEMS programme that it comprises, GEMS4 will use a Making Markets Work for the Poor (or M4P) approach to diagnose the problems and inefficiencies within the sector and design interventions that facilitate systemic change. The project will work to build local capacities and change market incentives so that the sector better meets the long-term needs of the poor, including women across the country.

The core purpose of the position is to work with the Planning and Results Manager (PRM) to ensure effective monitoring and evaluation of all aspects of the programme delivery. The position holder will report to the PRM.
