Context:
The Global Migration Data Analysis Centre (GMDAC) is part of the International Cooperation and Partnerships Department (ICP) and responsible for providing all stakeholders with a better understanding of global migration data. GMDAC is involved in a variety of tasks including data analysis and collection, support for IOM missions, capacity building for IOM member governments and knowledge management (communication).
GMDAC is expanding its support to IOM missions’ Monitoring & Evaluation activities regarding rigorous impact evaluations. In this context, GMDAC has been conducting a series of impact evaluations of IOM information campaigns. IOM is implementing information campaigns to raise awareness of the risks of irregular migration and legal migration options through various
programmes and in various countries. GMDAC is coordinating impact evaluations in different IOM regions in close collaboration with the country and regional offices and provides technical assistance to assess the effects of information campaigns using robust methods and data collection. To support this work, we are looking for an Impact Evaluation officer. A growing body of research suggests that potential migrants are generally distrustful of information campaigns on irregular migration and that they are more likely to believe information obtained through trusted social networks. The ‘Migrants as Messengers (MaM)’ campaign – one flagship IOM information campaign in West Africa – addresses this distrust by informing potential migrant communities in West Africa through peer-to-peer messaging.
The project started in 3 countries in November 2017 and will expand to include 7 countries in the region (Nigeria, Senegal, Guinea, Gambia, Cote d’Ivoire, Sierra Leone and Liberia) over 3 years. It is carried out by volunteer returned migrants using storytelling techniques to record peer interviews broadcast on social media. In close cooperation with the Migrants as Messengers campaign implemented by the IOM Regional Office in Dakar, GMDAC will design and implement four rigorous impact evaluations of information campaigns over the course of 3 years.
Under the direct supervision of the Survey & Data Officer/ Impact Evaluation Coordinator (GMDAC) in IOM’s Global Migration Data Analysis Centre and in coordination with the Head of the Regional Awareness Raising and Communications Unit, the successful candidate will design, manage and implement several rigorous impact evaluations of awareness raising campaigns in West Africa. The position will be based in the Regional Office for West and Central Africa in Dakar, Senegal.
Core Functions / Responsibilities:
1. Provide substantive inputs for the formulation of four rigorous (quantitative) impact evaluations. Take the lead in designing and developing impact evaluations of awareness raising campaigns in West Africa.

2. Recruit, manage and supervise field coordinators and survey teams/enumerators for each of the four studies in close collaboration with the Global Impact Evaluation Coordinator; ensure capacity building, mentor staff and participate in resolving performance issues.
3. Provide technical advice to IOM country offices and survey firms. Review draft Terms of Reference, Proposals, Methodological reports and tools, Inception and Research reports as needed.
4. Develop the overall framework for and ensure the development of questionnaires, field protocols, enumerator training manuals and other tools and guidelines. Ensure their application within the region including through training and close follow up with field coordinators and survey teams.
5. Lead on the harmonization of tools and evaluation systems developed in coordination with GMDAC to ensure further use and optimization.
6. Manage and supervise logistics, procurement and field implementation with IOM country offices and survey firms, ensuring arrangements and action comply with relevant agreements, rules, policies and procedures.
7. Provide advice, guidance and support for data management, cleaning and analysis.
