Job description

We are seeking aManager, Monitoring, Evaluation & Learning (MEL)to join our London team.

The purpose of the Manager, Monitoring, Evaluation & Learning (MEL) role is to design, commission, oversee and share the insights and impacts from monitoring and evaluation activities conducted across a range of Movember’s strategic goals. This role is focussed on facilitating internal organisational learning from those insights and impacts, contributing to building the evidence of what improves men’s health , and sharing this evidence externally to drive knowledge translation into practice.

The Manager, MEL will manage a range of MEL activities across Europe, Canada and US to support Movember in achieving its Impact Goals. Working, as both a team member of the MEL team, and a member of multiple cross-functional initiative teams, this role will:

• Oversee the implementation of MEL plans for Movember initiatives
• Design, develop and implement a MEL Strategy that meets the MEL needs of a Movember Impact Portfolio
• Facilitate the sharing and translation of organisational learnings from MEL activities
• Contribute to the continual improvement of the MEL foundational policies, processes, frameworks, and tools.

For this role, you’ll need:

• Possess relevant qualifications in public/population health, psychology, medical research and/or evaluation, implementation science or a related health discipline.
• Skilled and experienced in designing and delivering research and/or evaluation projects in relation to health problems.
• Skilled and experienced in monitoring and evaluation end-to-end project management (~10 years).
• Skilled and experienced in supporting internal individuals and teams from non-research or evaluation functional areas to understand and value MEL work.
• Skilled and experienced in the development of Theory of Change / Program Logics.
• Skilled and experienced in using a range of quantitative and qualitative research methods.
• Skilled and experienced in communicating research and/or evaluation results to a range of audiences using a variety of mediums and channels.
• Demonstrated skills in anticipating and solving problems.

Desirable:

• A post graduate qualification in public/population health, psychology, medical research and/or evaluation, implementation science or a related health discipline.
• Experience in commissioning and working with external consultants.
• Experience working in oncology/cancer (particularly prostate cancer) and/or mental health would be highly regarded.
• Experience developing or working with outcome frameworks and developing indicators & measures.
• Experience working within, or knowledge of, a collective impact model approach.
• Knowledge and experience using psycho-social measures, particularly those used with cancer patients.
• An understanding of, or experience working with, PROMs data and oncology registries.
• Journal publications and/or experience in presenting at conferences.
• Experience working in a global context.

GOOD CAUSE:
Working for Movember, you’ll help raise millions for men’s health (not for a CEO’s bonus). And all those dollars do a whole lotta good. We’ve funded cancer research. Created lifesaving medicines. And helped make cancer treatments less “one-size-fits-all”, and more specific to each patient’s needs.

We’re even calling for governments worldwide to get it together on men’s health. By meeting directly with policymakers so they change the systems that change men’s health.

GOOD VIBES:The vibes aren’t just for Fridays – even though we start weekends early nine months of the year. Here, it always feels like something big’s about to happen. Be it an office-wide surprise birthday party (with cake!) or an impromptu all-staff boogie.

Come the hairy season, the energy gets silly. We’re talking celebrity visits. Live stunts on-site for TV and radio. And when we hit a fundraising milestone, the office gong might even go off. And that means one thing: it’s conga time.

GOOD CREW:
Let’s just get this out of the way: big egosneed not apply. We’re all about straight-up solid human beings out to do meaningful work. People who’ll help you reach career-best moments. And give you the freedom to get there the best way you see fit.

Hybrid remote working is the norm. And in the office, you can sit where you please. Who knows? On any given day you could even end up desk buddies with the man who started this all.

We offer:

• Hybrid/Flexible working – we offer our team a split of home and office working
• 13 weeks paid Parental Leave and 6 weeks annual leave
• Health Cash Plan – to support the costs of everyday healthcare needs (dental, optical, wellbeing)
• An Employee Assistance Programme offering face to face counselling, plus legal and financial support
• A fun stimulating and collaborating culture, with company events
• Service awards after 3, 5 and 10 years
• Committees to join – Culture team, Diversity Equity & Inclusion, Movember book group
• Bike to work scheme
• Half day Fridays for 9 months of the year

Boy, do we know the feeling of being judged. (Over how we look, and other things that shouldn’t matter) Being different is how we started. And it’s also helped us raise $1 billion for men’s health. So, we know the power of diverse experiences, skills and perspectives.

Movember is committed to promoting a diverse and inclusive community and workplace - a place where we can all be ourselves, and each have the equal opportunity to succeed and be recognised for our unique contribution. We value the experiences, skills and perspectives of all individuals and actively encourage applications from people with diverse backgrounds. We make recruitment decisions based on applicants’ skills, experience and knowledge, ensuring all applicants are treated fairly.

Do you want to DO GOOD?
If so, we’d love to hear from you.
