Farringdon, United Kingdom Save the Children Full time

We are looking for a **Monitoring, Evaluation, Accountability and Evaluation (MEAL) Officer **to join the **Start Network** within our **Humanitarian Department** role to support the ongoing MEAL activities for the Start Funds to enhance its performance, learning, and accountability.

**About Us**

Save the Children UK believes every child deserves a future. In the UK and around the world, we work every day to give children a healthy start in life, the opportunity to learn and protection from harm. When crisis strikes, and children are most vulnerable, we are always among the first to respond and the last to leave. We ensure children's unique needs are met and their voices are heard. We deliver lasting results for millions of children, including those hardest to reach.

**About the Team**

Start Network is an independent charity made up of more than 80 aid agency members across five continents, including international, national and local organisations.

Our aim is to deliver more effective emergency aid, harnessing the power and knowledge of the network to make faster and better decisions to help people affected by crises. We advocate for radical change in the global aid system so that the world can deal better with the humanitarian challenges of today, and of the future. Our work focuses on three areas to change the system:

- Localisation - shifting power to those closest to the front line to enable more effective and appropriate responses.
- New forms of financing - providing fast, early, and dependable funding, to help communities to become more resilient to crises.
- Collective innovation - testing new ways of working and sharing learning and expertise to build a more effective humanitarian system.

The position sits within Save the Children UK as a Grant Custodian on behalf of the Start Network supported by a Grant Custodian Agreement (GCA) which describes the roles and commitments of each entity.

For more information on the SCUK and Start Network arrangements please refer to the FAQ document here.
