**Role Overview**
The Ipsos Northern Ireland team sits within the Ipsos Public Affairs policy offering. It is one of the most innovative and fast-moving professional services operations within Northern Ireland. We respond to the needs of government, helping to design, deliver and evaluate policies in areas, such as Energy, Education, Early Years and Housing.
We work with prestigious clients such as Dept. for Energy Security and Net Zero, DHLUC, DE (NI), DoH (NI) and other NI public and voluntary sector organisations.
We are looking for an Evaluation Consultant to join us to support the continued growth of the team and the delivery of our evaluation work in these key areas.
As a Senior Evaluation Consultant, you will be responsible for the day-to-day management and delivery of mixed-method evaluations of social policy-related programmes. You will manage inputs from evaluation and research project teams, as well as partners.
You will also play an important role in business development, supporting the growth of social policy evaluation by contributing to winning evaluation proposals and identifying market opportunities, while supporting the team and wider management of the business.
Working across the social policy space, you will be uniquely positioned to evaluate interventions at the intersection of society’s most pressing problems. You will be supporting an established team of evaluators and policy specialists to advance the use of key methodologies, such as randomised controlled trials (RCT), quasi-experimental designs, and other mixed methods studies. Many evaluations are complex and will require nuanced designs such as trauma-informed approaches, systems thinking, and more.
