The Senior Economist (Evidence & Evaluation) will work in a dedicated Impact and Evidence directorate, working at the heart of Youth Futures Foundation.
You will be central to our ambition to create the largest repository of robust evidence and evaluations of what works to support young people into good jobs.
In the directorate, you will support the Head of Evaluation (Data Lead), the Deputy Director and Director to ensure all Youth Futures' investments are designed to provide robust evidence of what works.
The postholder will design, commission and manage evaluations, working across our main priorities of 'Creating Opportunities (employer-focused interventions), 'Building Capacity' (programmes and interventions supporting young people directly) and 'Systems Change' (place-based approaches).
Working closely with commissioned independent evaluators, programme staff, wider delivery partners and colleagues in our Grants and Investment directorate, you will support existing programmes to move towards undertaking an economic impact evaluation (often a Randomised Controlled Trial (RCT) or quasi-experimental designs).
You will also work with colleagues to develop new programmes, which will improve the evidence base on supporting young people into good jobs by working with partners able to run larger-scale trials.
