Assignments may range from short-term (1–3 months) to longer-term (up to 11 months), they may be on premise or as remote working modalities involving tasks like:

Monitoring

• Reviewing country-level M&E approaches
• Identifying gaps in M&E information flows
• Designing and implementing M&E systems, including reporting formats tailored to the needs of various internal stakeholders (e.g., senior management, field staff, programme and protection teams, and donor reporting) and UNHCR’s RBM system COMPASS

Evaluation

• Conducting reviews and various types of project and programme evaluations, desk reviews and learner-centred briefs associated with evaluation.

Longer-term assignments may involve facilitation, staff training, strategy development to build ownership, and drafting recommendations for sustainable M&E systems. Therefore, consultants must possess not only technical M&E expertise but also knowledge of and experience with capacity development and organizational change. Furthermore, candidates should have in-depth knowledge and practical experience in humanitarian interventions, protection, and solutions for forcibly displaced populations.

This implies that candidates can apply either: with an RBM technical profile for assignments mainly focusing on monitoring and evaluation systems design and implementation; as an evaluation expert to conduct evaluations and reviews – so focusing on evaluations, or with a profile that combines a) and b).
