About City Cancer Challenge
City Cancer Challenge Foundation (C / Can) supports cities around the world as they work to improve access to equitable, quality cancer care. C / Can leads a city-based partnership initiative that aims to improve access to quality cancer care in cities around the world by transforming the way stakeholders from the public and private sectors collectively design, plan, and implement cancer solutions.
Currently active in cities across Africa, Asia, Eastern Europe and Latin America, the approach is built on the core principle that cities can drive impact at national level by crafting data-driven solutions with the support of a network of global and local partners that reflect an understanding of the unique local context.
C / Can was launched by the Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) at the 2017 World Economic Forum Annual Meeting in Davos. It was established as a standalone Swiss foundation in January 2019.
Tasks
Summary of Position
Are you an experienced Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning professional interested in working with a dynamic, innovative and growing global health organization?
The City Cancer Challenge Foundation is at a stage of high growth, and implementing a robust monitoring, evaluation, and learning (MEL) framework across our network of cities is a key to our success. We are looking for a highly motivated and experienced MEL professional to join our MEL Team to effectively advance our learning strategy.
As the Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning Manager, you will play a leading role in the development of learning and impact reports that highlight city and global level successes, challenges, opportunities, and risks. You will work closely with City Managers, Directors, the Technical Cooperation team, as well as the Communications Team to analyze quantitative metrics, generate insights for program improvement, and ultimately turn numbers into meaningful narratives.
The ideal candidate will be a proactive self-starter with a strong background in monitoring and evaluation of health programs in low and middle-income countries and a specialized skillset in data translation and dissemination. This role requires a strong communicator, who is comfortable with both collaborating with a range of teams and fostering an environment of continuous learning and improvement that promotes transparency as well as accountability.
Establishing a systematic approach to collecting organizational learnings across departments and projects will be crucial to this role to ensure that valuable insights are captured consistently and contribute to our collective knowledge. Establishing a centralized and accessible common repository will not only enhance internal knowledge sharing but also support evidence-based decision-making and strategic planning across the organization.
