Associate MME (Measurement, Monitoring, and Evaluation), Central

Job Summary

Roles and Responsibilities

• Understand field realities and data requirements - spend time on the ground with teams, children and government partners to know what the numbers actually mean.
• Conceptualise and drive measurement monitoring frameworks define the questions worth asking, the indicators that answer them, and the thresholds for action.
• Design and roll out data collection systems that work at scale across thousands of field staff, balancing rigour with what is practical on the ground.
• Analyse and visualise data that drives decisions at all levels - from a block coordinator s weekly plan to the leadership s annual strategy.
• Structure and present recommendations to senior leadership, government counterparts and funders, and make the case for them.
• Inform program strategy, drive efficient implementation, and track whether the change you recommended actually worked.

Educational Qualifications

• Undergraduate degree or higher in any field (Engineering, Economics, Mathematics and Statistics); a strong quantitative grounding matters more than the discipline.

Skills and Experience

• 2-4 years of full-time work experience, preferably in management consulting, strategy, business or product analytics, market research, or another analytics-centric role.
• Demonstrated ability to structure ambiguous problems, analyse complex information, extract insights, and use them to inform strategic decisions and programmatic approaches.
• Comfort owning a workstream independently and managing multiple stakeholders - central and state teams, government officials, and funders.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills in English and Hindi (spoken) is essential. You should be able to build a crisp deck and defend it in a room with senior leadership.
• Advanced proficiency in MS Excel and PowerPoint is essential.
• Working knowledge of SQL and at least one of R, Python or Stata is strongly preferred; familiarity with Tableau or Power BI is an advantage.
• Willingness to travel to various locations to gain a firsthand understanding of ground realities, collaborate with team members, and contribute to MME initiatives.

Growth and Career Path

• Breadth that is hard to find early in a career you will work with program design, field operations, technology and leadership strategy rather than one narrow slice of a problem.
• Real ownership from day one - your analysis is an input into decisions affecting millions of children, not a slide in someone else s deck.
• Direct and regular exposure to Pratham s senior leadership as well as government and philanthropic partners.
• A clear path to leading a larger program portfolio or a measurement function
