Role Overview
This role sits at the core of what Outline India does. Our work depends on rigorous M&E, credible data, and evaluations that can stand up to scrutiny — methodology, reporting, and recommendations. This is a hands-on role. You'll be in the data, in the field, and working directly with teams and clients.

- Develop evaluation reports, policy recommendations, and presentations for clients and partners.
- Manage data quality, cleaning, documentation, and analysis from field collection through final findings.
II. Field & Project Management
- Lead field teams through training, data collection, monitoring, and quality assurance.
- Oversee field implementation across project locations and travel as required.
- Manage field timelines, budgets, logistics, and coordination with field partners.
- Adapt tools for local contexts and manage translation/localisation requirements.
III. Reporting & Client Management
- Work directly with clients and project teams to translate programme questions into robust evaluation approaches.
- Present findings through clear visualisations, reports, and presentations.
- Ensure M&E systems align with programme objectives and donor requirements.
- Turn evaluation findings into practical recommendations that can influence programme design and decision-making.
What We Want
