Elements of the MEL function at FCDO include developing high quality Theories of Change (ToCs) for our Business Planning and programmes at the design stage; operationalising the ToCs through robust results or monitoring frameworks to track progress toward objectives; and using the monitoring and evaluations data to learn, adapt, and improve effectiveness of programmes (learning), and assessing whether they succeed in achieving their desired impacts (evaluations).

The purpose of this role is to provide Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning expertise across the British Embassy Jakarta to ensure our Country Business Planning and programmes are based on high quality Theories of Change; have best monitoring frameworks and systems in place; ensure programme teams take best evaluation decisions; and ensure we derive best learning from our monitoring and evaluation activities; all geared toward maximising the effectiveness of our work in support of the UK’s International Development Strategy.

The job holder will be a member of the Development Management Unit (DMU), a small cross cutting team which sits at the heart of the Embassy. The DMU provides oversight of effective delivery of Official Development Assistance (ODA) and contributes to setting wider development policy, under the strategic direction of the Development Director. The job holder will report to the Head of the DMU.

In this role, the MEL adviser will:

- Work closely with the Development Management Unit and senior management to develop robust Theories of Change and results and monitoring frameworks to underpin the Country Business Planning process
- Work with programme teams in FCDO Indonesia to ensure MEL is mainstreamed through the programme life cycle, including development of quality Theories of Change, clear and robust monitoring frameworks, making effective evaluation decisions, and supporting the annual review process, including analysing and validating progress data (both quantitative and qualitative) provided by our partners.
- Work closely with our implementing partners to clearly communicate to them the ambition of our programmes; theories of change; ensure they understand our expectations on results, data quality, and methodologies (such as UK’s Climate Finance Indicator methodologies).
- Work with policy teams to identify relevant Theories of Change and KPIs to underpin non-programme work and feed into Country Business Plan reporting.
- Act as a link between the Embassy and central MEL and other resources, including, but not limited to, Evaluation and Statistics Cadres, ensuring the Embassy is updated with the latest guidance that FCDO produces centrally on Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning.
- Lead the commissioning, analysis and validation of data for reporting on performance of the Country Business Plan, ICF reporting and other M&E products as required by FCDO centrally.
