AAH is recruiting a West and Central Africa Analyst to join its Regional Analyst Network– a team focused on systematic, futures focused context analysis. The main objectives of the RAN are to complement and empower the existing analytical capacity of the country directors, regional and technical staff in AAH and amplify its impact.
The Regional Analysts are part of an innovative team in AAH– the Department of Strategy and Analysis. They form a network that covers four key regions for the organization, building on the expert judgment and experience of AAH staff with structured analytical techniques and quantitative analysis. They have the confidence and expertise to work independently while also maintaining a strong link with the rest of the RAN. They are reliable and responsive – team players willing to support and advise their colleagues. They are able to critically engage in discussions on analytical tools and methodologies and eager to be creative in seeking the optimum, context appropriate approaches for humanitarian analysis. They are network-builders, creating a diverse source network within their regions including NGO staff, government officials, think tanks and universities with whom they can triangulate information, test hypothesis and collaborate on analytical projects. Based in regional hubs, the Regional Analysts are managed remotely by a Chief Analyst based in London.
Operating on a model premised on collaboration the Regional Analysts will, first and foremost, develop close relationships with the country offices and regional structures that they work with. They will frequently travel to country offices to work with country teams to create analytical products specifically tailored to the organisation’s needs. We are always looking to recruit passionate and dedicated individuals who are keen to join our team and contribute to the fight against child hunger. The Regional Analyst roles are new opportunities within Action Against Hunger, offered as a full-time fixed term contract ending in December 2017.
