Senior Policy Manager at Innovations for Poverty Action (IPA)

Posted on Thu 27th Mar, 2025 - hotnigerianjobs.com --- (0 comments)


Innovations for Poverty Action (IPA) is a research and policy nonprofit that discovers and promotes effective solutions to global poverty problems. IPA brings together researchers and decision-makers to design, rigorously evaluate, and refine these solutions and their applications, ensuring that the evidence created is used to improve the lives of the world’s poor. In recent decades, trillions of dollars have been spent on programs designed to reduce global poverty, but clear evidence of which programs succeed is rare, and when evidence does exist, decision-makers often do not know about it. IPA exists to bring together leading researchers and these decision-makers to ensure that the evidence we create leads to a tangible impact on the world. Since its founding in 2002, IPA has worked with over 600 leading academics to conduct over 900 evaluations in 52 countries. This research has informed hundreds of successful programs that now impact millions of individuals worldwide.

We are recruiting suitable candidates to fill the position below:

  • Support the Country Director in IPA Nigeria’s business development process.
  • Proactively identify business development opportunities and cultivate relationships that lead to developing projects with key WEE and gender sector decision-makers
