Johannesburg, Gauteng, South Africa IDinsight Full time

About IDinsight

IDinsight is a global advisory, data analytics, and research organization that helps development leaders maximize their social impact. We provide data and evidence tools to support decision-making and rigorously test what works to support communities. Our work spans various sectors, including agriculture, education, health, governance, sanitation, financial inclusion, and more.

Our Expertise

We have expertise in various rigorous approaches and methodologies, which we tailor to each client depending on their needs and constraints. To achieve a positive social impact, we:

  • Support clients' use of data and evidence for routine and major decision-making.
  • Inform funding decisions – toward high-impact initiatives and away from less effective programs or approaches.
  • Create and share tools, knowledge, and ideas that expand the use of data and evidence for social good.

About the Role

IDinsight's Associates and Senior Associates are high-performing early-career professionals passionate about evidence-informed decision-making. These roles provide a rich, varied experience with responsibilities ranging from in-depth research and analysis, data collection management, client interactions, and internal team building. We seek intellectually curious, resilient, and team-oriented individuals who are highly motivated to grapple with the difficulties and unpredictability of trying to improve lives at scale.

Responsibilities

Associates and Senior Associates are responsible for the following areas of work:

  • Managing project team workflow, systems, and deliverables.
  • Conducting and supporting research design, data collection or acquisition, technical analysis, and results visualization/packaging, etc. for project tasks.
  • Creating client deliverables, including reports, slide decks, and oral presentations to inform decisions and actions of clients.
  • Developing strategic communications to build awareness of IDinsight projects and learnings, contribute to sectoral knowledge, and shift the sector towards more evidence-informed policy and practices.

Career Development

Skill and career development are core to IDinsight's values and long-term impact strategy. Associates and Senior Associates receive significant mentorship from IDinsight leadership, support from talented peers, and considerable autonomy in their work. They maintain professional development plans and are given 'stretch' opportunities designed to strengthen a variety of skills. Real-time feedback and structured reviews are regularly provided to enable maximum professional growth.

Qualifications

IDinsight Associates and Senior Associates come from a wide range of disciplinary backgrounds, including economics, data science, policy research, development projects, engineering, environmental science, political science, public policy, literature and more. Given that no Associate or Senior Associate comes in with the same exact background as another, we're typically looking for candidates with a broad range of qualifications and former experiences.

Location

Associate positions will be based in one of IDinsight's offices or satellite teams with possible significant regional travel depending on project needs and organizational expansion.
