JOB: Growth Research & Development Officer, Amnesty International, London, United Kingdom

£34,884
Central London 

Amnesty International (AI) defends people’s most basic rights and fights to make the world a fairer place. And now, as our organisation sets out ambitious plans to make a bigger impact, we have an opportunity and a challenge to find effective ways to increase our presence and influence in countries where AI does not have a national entity. Your work to support the efforts of regional colleagues with research and development capacity will inform, guide and shape that growth. You will be instrumental in ensuring AI is able to increase the movement in innovative new ways with stronger routes to impact.
 
About the role
 
In this new global role, you will be working to support regionally based colleagues to support the growth of AI in countries where there is no entity by:
·         Researching and analyzing global growth trends of AI and civil society actors
·         Carrying out scoping exercises to inform the development of presence where there is a need to increase AI’s movement for increased impact.
·         Support the development, implementation and monitoring of criteria, standards and key performance and impact indicators for new forms of Amnesty International entity.
·         Carrying out the monitoring and evaluation of existing initiatives and gather learning, draft recommendations and share learning with regionally based colleagues. You will create a network of AI’s regional colleagues focused on growth of new presence to become a community of practice.
·         Supporting AI in its partnerships development and quality assurance.
 
About you
 
You will have a research and development background with strong participatory research skills. This would suite someone who has experience in developing new programmes of work based on empirical evidence. Having previously worked in the civil society and/or NGO field, you will have a good understanding of active participation, partnership best practice and growth and mobilization in relation to human rights change. You will have excellent analytical skills and communication skills, including at a distance. Strategic thinking and the ability to network and build relationships are essential. You will also be prepared to travel and undertake local research.
 
About us
 
Our aim is simple: an end to human rights abuses. Independent, international and influential, we campaign for justice, freedom and truth wherever they’re denied. Already our network of over three million members and supporters is making a difference in 150 countries. And whether we’re applying pressure through powerful research or direct lobbying, mass demonstrations or online campaigning, we’re all inspired by hope for a better world. One where human rights are respected and protected by everyone, everywhere.
