It is in this context that the WSSCC is looking to recruit an Evaluation Support Officer to support the growing Evaluation portfolio. The overall responsibility of the incumbent is to provide technical assistance and support to the Senior Monitoring and Evaluation Officer in ensuring Quality Standards in the Evaluation portfolio of the organisation.
