Summary job description

Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning (MEL) is a vital cyclical process within conservation programming which helps us to learn about what is and isn’t working for communities or the environment. By implementing this process we are able to refine our programming and contribute to improved conservation outcomes.

The Blue Ventures MEL team is focused on working with field staff and managers to develop and support them with the right methods, tools and systems to collect the information needed for adaptive management.

Blue Ventures has been working in Maintirano since 2009 supporting the development and implementation of the Barren Isles Marine Protected Area. We are recruiting a Monitoring,

The job will involve a wide range of tasks related to data management and interpretation, as well as supporting colleagues in both data collection, and the development of content for effective communication across a variety of audiences.

We seek to recruit a pragmatic, methodical and creative person, with excellent coaching skills. This position offers the opportunity to gain experience working on innovative conservation projects, supporting local communities, in a challenging yet rewarding environment in western Madagascar. The evolving nature of the organisation will provide the successful candidate with opportunities for innovation and initiative within a dynamic team.
