Description

Oxford Policy Management is looking for a Quantitative Impact Estimation (QIE) Principal Consultant to join OPM's Global Research and Evidence Practice.


The Research and Evidence Practice is a global team of MERL experts that seek to improve policies, programmes and service delivery in LMICs through strengthening the production and use of information and evidence and the systems and processes that support it, and so contribute to the reduction of poverty and disadvantage at scale.

We do this in collaboration with our Sector Practices (Health, Education, Poverty and Social Protection, Climate and Resilience and Governance).

This approach offers high levels of methodological rigour in combination with deep thematic and contextual knowledge and expertise.


As a QIE Principal Consultant you will lead on the acquisition, design and delivery of quantitative impact evaluations involving experimental or quasi-experimental designs and analytical methods including: randomised control trials, propensity score matching, regression discontinuity, difference-in-differences, interrupted time series, and other econometric techniques for causality assessment.

Your role will also include leading mixed-method evaluations, including supervising qualitative research studies and other evaluation workstreams such as process evaluation and value-for-money.


In addition to leading on the implementation of impact evaluation projects, this role is expected to also lead new business generation, develop strong client relationships, and liaise with OPM's Sector Practices with the aim of supporting their monitoring and evaluation strategies and work.

Finally, the role is expected to lead internally on setting the company's technical standards for QIE work, coordinate staff capacity building on QIE, and facilitate knowledge management of QIE resources.


Why join us?
Our work bridges the gap between evidence and practice.

We produce high-quality, leading thinking that addresses the drivers of poverty and barriers to sustainable growth to help bring about change where it is needed most.

Working at OPM allows each of us to play our part in that over-arching mission.

Above all of this, we are committed to helping all of our employees to develop personally and professionally.

Build your career with us and you'll benefit from training and learning opportunities, internal knowledge sharing, and a network of experienced colleagues.

We encourage a healthy work-life balance, and our working environment is informed by an open, supportive culture. OPM also offers a very generous holiday allowance and contributory pension scheme, as well as a highly competitive salary
