Description
Nickol Global Solutions (NGS) seeks to engage at least one intermittent M&E Advisor with a technical focus in M&E for media and communications programming (both traditional and digital) under a support contract with USAID’s Office of Transition Initiatives (OTI). USAID/OTI is a fast-paced, dynamic organization that supports U.S. foreign policy objectives by helping local partners advance peace and democracy by providing fast, flexible, short-term assistance targeted at key political transition and stabilization needs.
M&E Advisors serve in senior consultative roles to the OTI field team and Washington-based regional team leadership on all aspects of monitoring and evaluation for the assigned OTI country programs. This includes working at all levels of the OTI program and with a wide variety of staff to include both OTI staff and implementing partner staff based in the country or region where OTI is programming.
The Advisor delivers technical expertise, consulting, training and development, and other services based on the specific needs of the given OTI program, at the direction of the OTI field team (Country Representative and Deputy Country Representative); in coordination with OTI’s Media Team; and aligned with OTI’s M&E approaches, requirements, and expectations.
The role is remote with a substantial portion of the support to be provided while on temporary duty (TDY) travel to OTI field programs. Additional remote or reach back support may also be requested. Initially we expect discrete engagements with OTI country teams for specific projects but anticipate that the support could expand up to full time if the needs of OTI and the skills of the Advisor align. No minimum guarantee of hours will be provided in the initial consulting agreement.
