East-West Management Institute (EWMI) is seeking a Monitoring and Evaluation Team Lead for an anticipated 5-year Healing and Accountability through Human Rights activity in Ukraine. USAID/Ukraine will provide up to $25,000,000, subject to the availability of funds, for the five-year activity. The purpose of the new Healing & Accountability through Human Rights activity is to help Ukrainians achieve justice and address social divisions resulting from Russia’s full-scale invasion by supporting processes aimed at accountability for war crimes, fostering dialogue on difficult questions related to post-conflict recovery, and beginning healing and reconciliation using human-rights-based approaches, including transitional justice tools.

The M&E Team Lead is critical to the success of the activity implementation through ensuring processes and procedures to operationalize the MEL Plan, as well as leading reporting to USAID. The M&E Lead supports the COP in ensuring that interventions are evidence-based and that the activity gathers appropriate data to inform adaptive management. The M&E Team lead plays a critical role in sharing information with USAID and other stakeholders related to the activity’s evidence-based impact, lessons learned, and other successes.

Required qualifications:

• Demonstrated experience leading the M&E function of a large project and expertise in developing and operationalizing a comprehensive monitoring and evaluation plan, routine monitoring system, and USAID reporting.
• A minimum of 8 years of M&E experience in international development projects with a Master’s degree or 5 years of M&E experience with a PhD.
• Fluency in English (both spoken and written); professional proficiency in Ukrainian is desirable.
