Hiring trends for gender roles within globaldev's social inclusion sector

To mark International Women’s Day, Devex is taking a look at recent hiring trends around gender-related roles in global development’s social inclusion sector.

This analysis — covering more than 600 positions related to gender within the social inclusion sector that were posted on Devex’s job board from September to February — provides a snapshot of the current hiring landscape for those seeking work in these areas.


Nearly half of the 630 positions that Devex analyzed were for midlevel professionals, while a quarter were aimed at senior-level professionals and 18% at entry-level job seekers. Consulting roles made up about 42% of all postings. These proportions are consistent with other periods in the recent past, including the same six-month stretch from 2020 to 2021.
