PRACTICE AREA DESCRIPTION
The Human Development team works for a world where everyone can develop to their full potential. We are focused on expanding meaningful rights and opportunities for people who are marginalised. Part of a Global African firm, we are particularly committed to children, women, and young people in Africa and the Middle East. We help governments, their global partners, and private and non-state clients to improve the delivery of key human development services while navigating rapid changes in demography, climate, and technology, and the shock of Covid-19. We work in health, nutrition, and WaSH; youth, education and early childhood development; and social protection and social care. We provide services in diagnostics; regulation; strategy, planning and implementation; financing; service delivery; and monitoring and evaluation


ROLE DESCRIPTION
We are looking for 2(two)strong technical consultants to work on impactful projects that drive economic and social transformation and empower decision-makers in Africa and the Middle East, particularly for the benefit of young people, women, and marginalised people. The candidate will build on our existing work on human development, in particular in social sector financing and youth, and on related sectors, such as disaster finance, to generate a distinctive set of consulting projects that will realise value in the social sectors in our focus geographies.


This is a technical role, where you will be required to lead the design, delivery and quality assurance of economics-based diagnostic work.
