Senior Evaluation Specialist

SIH Inclusive Solutions supports institutions to turn disability inclusion, accessibility and inclusive governance commitments into sustainable practice. Founded by international advisor Selena Imerovic Hodzic, SIH works with governments, UN agencies, NGOs and regional organisations across Europe, Africa, the Middle East and Asia. Its work combines strategic advisory, institutional and programme analysis, capacity strengthening and practical implementation support, drawing on a flexible network of specialist associates tailored to individual assignments.

SIH Inclusive Solutions is seeking a Senior Evaluation Specialist for a potential short-term international consultancy involving fieldwork in Vietnam.

The specialist will provide strong evaluation methodology and quantitative expertise within a multidisciplinary team. Responsibilities will include contributing to the design and implementation of a complex final evaluation; developing the evaluation framework and methodology; designing sampling approaches and data collection tools; analysing quantitative and qualitative data; triangulating findings across multiple sources; and contributing to evidence-based conclusions and recommendations.

The assignment will involve collaboration with a senior disability inclusion and policy specialist and other technical/local expertise, as well as engagement with institutional stakeholders, service providers and programme participants.

• Significant experience designing and conducting final evaluations, baseline/endline studies or comparable evaluation processes
• Strong expertise in mixed-method evaluation, combining quantitative and qualitative approaches
• Demonstrated experience with sampling methodologies, quantitative data analysis, data quality and triangulation
• Strong ability to analyse programme performance and translate findings into clear, evidence-based conclusions and actionable recommendations
• Experience evaluating international development programmes, preferably involving health, rehabilitation, social services and/or disability
• Experience with results-based management and evaluation frameworks
• Strong stakeholder consultation, interviewing and facilitation skills
• Excellent analytical and report-writing skills in English
• Experience working in multidisciplinary and multicultural teams
• Relevant advanced university degree or equivalent professional experience
• Experience with US Government/USAID-funded programmes, evaluation standards or reporting requirements is a strong asset
• Experience in Vietnam or Southeast Asia is an asset
• Availability for a short-term consultancy, including potential fieldwork in Vietnam

Disability inclusion expertise is not essential, as this expertise is already represented within the proposed team; however, experience evaluating programmes involving disability, rehabilitation, health or social services would be an advantage.
