Technical Consultant

My responsibilities are mainly related to studies and research projects, including stakeholder relationship management, supervision and implementation of data collection, data analysis, and reporting and presenting study results. I co-facilitate enumerator training and supervise data collection in the field, utilizing both quantitative and qualitative methods. Not only do I conduct data analysis, but I also guide other team members during data analysis. Similar to my previous positions in the organisation, I also prepare reports from research findings and at times present the results of the study, best practices, and lessons learned. Additionally, I also contribute to technical proposals for several tender or bidding opportunities, showcasing the organisation’s understanding of research methodologies and extensive capabilities in project execution.
