We are seeking a Global Director – Monitoring, Evaluation & Learning to join our Melbourne team.

The Movember Institute of Men's Health’s mission is to lift the profile of men’s health and propel Movember’s leadership and enterprise across the sector. To achieve this, the Institute, in collaboration with key partners, advocates for and drives critical policy and practice reform in its markets to improve understanding and investment in programs and services that advance boys’ and men’s health and reduce health inequities experienced by sub-populations of men.

The role of Global Director – Monitoring, Evaluation & Learning will report to the Global Director, Movember Institute of Men’s Health, and work closely with key reports, the Executive Director of Programs, and the Global Director of Advocacy.

Working in partnership with the Impact Team global leaders, the role will be responsible for overseeing Movember’s Monitoring, Evaluation & Learning team to support our projects and programs in achieving Movember’s charitable goals. The role is a combination of ‘hands on’ activity as well as managing and leading a team of evaluation specialists in providing internal consultative support to program teams. The role will also manage external evaluation partners, as well as liaising with external and internal stakeholders in the conduct and dissemination of evaluation outcomes.

To fulfill this role, the individual will bring strong experience in designing, conducting and translating monitoring/evaluation studies in the programmatic domains relevant to the cause areas of Institute. The individual will be skilled in managing and leading a high performing team of evaluation specialists. Ability to lead Movember’s implementation science work will be essential.

For this role, you’ll need:

• Postgraduate degree in a health-related area
• Research and evaluation expertise: skilled and experienced in the design and implementation of research and evaluation projects
• Health / science sector expertise: prior role(s) in a scientific, population health or health policy area for a minimum of 10 years
• Stakeholder relations: highly competent manager of both internal and external relationships to ensure a smooth flow of information across different parts of the organisation
• Demonstrated experience in a role handling complex stakeholder relations both within and outside of the organisation; on a global basis preferable
• Impressive strategic thinker, and with strong attention to detail
• Outstanding communicator, using both written and verbal means
• Excellent manager of teams, including creating conditions that support team development, growth and success
• Skilled and experienced in connecting research and evaluation activities and results to other organizational functions, including for informing decision making, organizational learning, promoting success and demonstrating accountability
• Budget management experience for large programs or departments
  

Desirable:

• Experience with governmental stakeholders including provision of health-related evidence to ministerial advisers
• Contribution to health policy at a local or national level
• Experience of working in a global context

GOOD CAUSE:
Working for Movember, you’ll help raise millions for men’s health (not for a CEO’s bonus). And all those dollars do a whole lotta good. We’ve funded cancer research. Created lifesaving medicines. And helped make cancer treatments less “one-size-fits-all”, and more specific to each patient’s needs.

We’re even calling for governments worldwide to get it together on men’s health. By meeting directly with policymakers so they change the systems that change men’s health.

GOOD VIBES:
The vibes aren’t just for Fridays – even though we start weekends early nine months of the year. Here, it always feels like something big’s about to happen. Be it an office-wide surprise birthday party (with cake!) or an impromptu all-staff boogie.

Come the hairy season, the energy gets silly. We’re talking celebrity visits. Live stunts on-site for TV and radio. And when we hit a fundraising milestone, the office gong might even go off. And that means one thing: it’s conga time.

GOOD CREW:
Let’s just get this out of the way: big egos need not apply. We’re all about straight-up solid human beings out to do meaningful work. People who’ll help you reach career-best moments. And give you the freedom to get there the best way you see fit.

Hybrid remote working is the norm. And in the office, you can sit where you please. Who knows? On any given day you could even end up desk buddies with the man who started this all.

• Flexible hybrid working from home and our modern Richmond office
• Finish work at 2pm on Fridays (Dec-Aug)
• NFP salary packaging (pay less tax)
• 13 weeks paid parental leave and 5 weeks annual leave
• Fun & collaborative culture with employee social events
• Free Headspace subscription and other wellbeing initiative
• Relaxed dress code

Boy, do we know the feeling of being judged. (Over how we look, and other things that shouldn’t matter.) Being different is how we started. And it’s also helped us raise $1 billion for men’s health. So, we know the power of diverse experiences, skills and perspectives.

And another impressive number is our WGEA gender pay gap: it sits at a big, fat, round 0%. If you’ve got the relevant skills and the right attitude, let nothing stand in your way of firing off your application.

Do you want to DO GOOD?
If so, we’d love to hear from you.
