Singapore Centre for Evidence and Implementation (CEI) Full time

Do you have a passion to help drive meaningful, actionable change in the social sector? Are you ready to join a diverse, global team that values its people, nurtures professional growth and emphasises collaboration?

Location: Singapore (hybrid)

Remuneration: Competitive salary reflective of skills and experience

Contract terms: 12 months (maternity cover), with possibility for extension

**What does the Principal Advisor do?**:
A large proportion of the role (0.6 FTE+) involves collaborating with the Centre for Holistic Initiative for Learning and Development (CHILD) at the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore, where CEI is a Founding Research Partner. CHILD brings together experts in the field of translational research, child development, and implementation science to help give children the best start to life. The Principal Advisor leads and supervises project teams within CEI and alongside CHILD collaborators to design, enhance and evaluate interventions targeting children (0-6 years), families and early childhood educators.

CEI provides government, service sector, and philanthropic decision-makers with rigorous data analysis and feasible solutions to support them in improving the lives of people facing adversity. The Principal Advisor leads and supports projects using rigorous methodology applied to real-world research and evaluation.

The role supports CEI’s partners in Singapore and regionally to evaluate policies, programmes, and service models: conducting evidence reviews (e.g., evidence insights, landscape studies, rapid reviews); developing theory of change and programme logic models; conducting and overseeing data collection and analysis; report writing; facilitating workshops; coaching and advising on methods and approaches; developing implementation plans and presentations of findings. The Principal Advisor also contributes to project management, research activities and publications - as required by CEI’s project portfolio.

As part of a global organisation, there may be occasions when work and meetings will be conducted outside regular business hours, and this role may involve working on projects and initiatives across CEI’s offices, i.e., working virtually with our UK or Australian teams.

**Key areas of responsibility**:
Key areas of accountability are outlined below. Other duties will be performed as required.

- Preparing publications for various audiences, including academic audiences, policymakers, programme managers and practitioners.
- Participating in appropriate research and evaluation networks and collaborations.
- Developing and presenting outcomes from research and evaluation activities at relevant internal and external forums.

**Project management**:
