We are seeking a Global Director - Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning (MEL) to join our Melbourne team. (NB- this role must be based in Melbourne, Australia)
This role will lead Movember’s Global MEL team and drive a step-change in how we measure, learn from, and communicate our impact.
Reporting to the Global Director, Movember Institute of Men’s Health, you will work in close partnership with Institute leaders.
You Will Be Responsible For
* Overseeing the design and delivery of Movember’s global MEL function to ensure projects and programs contribute to our charitable goals. These include investments in Cancer, Mental Health, Indigenous Health and Gender Responsive Healthcare.
* Leading the refresh of Movember’s MEL strategy, including a clear framework for when and how to apply different evaluation approaches (e.g. formative, summative, economic, developmental, realist, systems/nested, participatory), aligned to available resources, capabilities, and priorities.
* Introducing a Learning strategy (currently absent) to embed organisational learning, support evidence-based decision-making and inform strategic priorities.
* Shaping the MEL operating model (including MEL capacity management) and building capability across the organisation.
* Managing and mentoring a high-performing team of evaluation specialists (across Movember’s core markets including Australia, Canada and the UK), who both conduct evaluations as well oversee external evaluation partners.
* Engaging internal and external stakeholders to ensure the effective conduct, communication, and use of evaluation findings to drive knowledge to action.
* Leading Movember’s implementation science agenda
This role blends strategic leadership with hands-on delivery and requires
both deep evaluation expertise and strong organisational leadership
For This Role, You’ll Need
* Postgraduate degree in a health-related field.
* Research & evaluation expertise – extensive experience in the design and implementation of research and evaluation projects.
* Health/science sector experience – at least 10 years in scientific, population health, or health policy roles.
* Proven ability to develop and implement organisational MEL strategies in a health-related context.
* Skilled at managing and developing high-performing teams.
* Strong track record in building organisational capability in MEL.
* Demonstrated ability to connect research and evaluation outputs to decision-making, organisational learning, and accountability requirements.
* Exceptional stakeholder management skills, with experience navigating complex relationships (global experience preferred).
* Strategic thinker with excellent attention to detail.
* Outstanding written and verbal communication skills.
* Experience managing budgets for large programs or departments.
Desirable
* Experience working with government stakeholders and providing evidence to ministerial advisers. Contributions to health policy at local, national, or international level.
* Experience working in a global, cross-cultural context.
* Experience in Mens Health would be highly advantageous.
Good Cause
Working for Movember, you’ll help raise millions for men’s health (not for a CEO’s bonus). And all those dollars do a whole lotta good. We’ve funded cancer research. Created lifesaving medicines. And helped make cancer treatments less “one-size-fits-all”, and more specific to each patient’s needs.
We’re even calling for governments worldwide to get it together on men’s health. By meeting directly with policymakers so they change the systems that change men’s health.
Good Vibes
The vibes aren’t just for Fridays – even though we start weekends early nine months of the year. Here, it always feels like something big’s about to happen. Be it an office-wide surprise birthday party (with cake!) or an impromptu all-staff boogie.
Come the hairy season, the energy gets silly. We’re talking celebrity visits. Live stunts on-site for TV and radio. And when we hit a fundraising milestone, the office gong might even go off. And that means one thing: it’s conga time.
Good Crew
Let’s just get this out of the way: big egos need not apply. We’re all about straight-up solid human beings out to do meaningful work. People who’ll help you reach career-best moments. And give you the freedom to get there the best way you see fit.
Hybrid remote working is the norm. And in the office, you can sit where you please. Who knows? On any given day you could even end up desk buddies with the man who started this all.
* Flexible hybrid working from home and our modern Richmond office
* Finish work at 2pm on Fridays (Dec-Aug)
* NFP salary packaging (pay less tax)
* 13 weeks paid parental leave and 5 weeks annual leave
* Fun & collaborative culture with employee social events
* Free Headspace subscription and other wellbeing initiative
* Relaxed dress code
Boy, do we know the feeling of being judged. (Over how we look, and other things that shouldn’t matter.) Being different is how we started. And it’s also helped us raise $1 billion for men’s health. So, we know the power of diverse experiences, skills and perspectives.
And another impressive number is our WGEA gender pay gap: it sits at a big, fat, round 0%. If you’ve got the relevant skills and the right attitude, let nothing stand in your way of firing off your application.
Do you want to DO GOOD?
If so, we’d love to hear from you.
Movember is the global leader in men’s health. Our focus is on mental health, suicide prevention, prostate cancer and testicular cancer. Since beginning over drinks at a bar in 2003 in Melbourne, we’ve expanded internationally, raised over $1 billion for men’s health and funded more than 1,320 men’s health related projects globally.
