About Voluntās (Latin: will, goal, purpose, meaning)

Voluntas specializes in providing meaningful research and monitoring and evaluation services in developing countries, conflict zones, fragile states, and transitional environments. We use our insights to inform fact-based recommendations and policy options grounded in extensive research and data collection. Our goal is to have a positive, sustainable impact on populations affected by crisis to improve their living standards and access to rights.

To-date, Voluntas has implemented over 125 projects in volatile regions with partners including UN agencies, the EU, USAID, and international NGOs. We have a presence in nine countries, with ongoing projects in East and North Africa, the Middle East, and Ukraine. Our projects focus on policy and programming, needs assessments, perception studies, contextual analysis, and monitoring and evaluation. We work on thematic areas such as the environment and climate change, conflict resolution, employment, food security, gender, governance, human rights, migration, political economy, prevention of violent extremism, public health, WASH, and youth.

We are currently looking for a highly motivated individual to support our monitoring and evaluation projects as an associate in Beirut. The ideal candidate will have 2-3 years’ experience working on monitoring and evaluation and/or research projects for an international organization, research institute, consultancy, or university.

We encourage all qualified applicants to apply irrespective of race, religion, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, disability, age, or veteran status.

At Voluntās, philosophers, anthropologists, psychologists, economists, dramaturgists, sociologists, political scientists and people of yet other academic backgrounds are all advisors by profession and philosophers by heart. 

Together, we specialize in advising and working with companies, directorates, boards, investors, foundations, owners, leaders and governments on how to create, adapt and drive a meaningful culture, brand, society and planet.

We believe that this approach significantly increases the quality of living, while we know that it sustainably accelerates the productivity and profitability of doing business.

We pursue advisory and analytics to realize human potential and make more lives more meaningful for the colleagues in organizations, the consumers of brands, the citizens in societies and for all us children of our blue planet. #J-18808-Ljbffr
