Sectors and profiles we engage.
We engage specialists across the humanitarian and development sectors — from senior thematic experts to local research assistants and multilingual enumerators. Below is the range we typically draw on.
Senior thematic experts
Sector specialists in protection, GBV, MHPSS, migration, livelihoods, peacebuilding, and inclusion. Team-leader profiles for evaluations, feasibility studies, and research assignments.
Field researchers & enumerators
Local research assistants and multilingual enumerators with strong field-work track records, ethical-research training, and hands-on experience with mobile data-collection platforms.
Technical & data specialists
M&E and MEAL specialists, statisticians, GIS analysts, full-stack developers, and data engineers — the technical depth behind PRISM and our bespoke client systems.
The practice areas we engage on.
Mandates we have run, or are currently running, fall under the following thematic areas. Profile your expertise against the sector that best fits.
Protection & GBV
Protection mainstreaming, case management, GBV service mapping, PSEA, child protection, and disability inclusion.
Migration & durable solutions
Forced displacement, return management, EU externalisation policies, durable solutions, and reintegration research.
Health & MHPSS
Mental health and psychosocial support, public health programming, and intervention design across emergency and recovery contexts.
Livelihoods & economic recovery
Cash and voucher assistance, livelihoods restoration, market analysis, and economic recovery in post-crisis settings.
Education & capacity
Education in emergencies, sectoral training, capacity-building, and learning-review work for INGOs and local partners.
Peacebuilding & social cohesion
Conflict analysis, transitional justice, social cohesion, peacebuilding, and rule-of-law research.
Gender, inclusion & rights
GEDSI analyses, feminist development frameworks, human-rights-based programming, and PSEA institutionalisation.
WASH, shelter & food security
MSNAs, baselines, post-distribution monitoring, and sectoral assessments across WASH, shelter, and food security.
M&E, MEAL & data
Third-party monitoring, evaluation, real-time analytics, statistical analysis, GIS, and data-engineering mandates.
Four reasons professionals stay.
The roster is built on long-term relationships rather than one-off engagements — here is what that means in practice.
Meaningful impact
Contribute to projects that produce measurable results for affected communities — not just outputs filed against a results framework.
Professional growth
Access training opportunities, peer-review networks, and the chance to work alongside senior practitioners across sectors and regions.
Flexible engagement
Match your expertise to mandates that fit your schedule. No exclusivity; you decide whether each opportunity is a fit before committing.
Diverse network
Join a multicultural network spanning the Middle East, East Africa, and Europe — with senior thematic experts, local researchers, and technical specialists.
