* Continuously improve and maintain a Monitoring and Evaluation Framework to support Directorates to develop and maintain robust M&E plans to assess project delivery against objectives
* Work collaboratively with the internal stakeholders including the ODA, to agree a consistent 'lessons learnt' approach and the provision of advice and guidance on how M&E plans can monitor project performance, measure and capturing deliverables and evaluate impact of projects once completed
* Provide leadership and direction to the Performance team; planning and allocating resources and coordinating work. Ensure objectives are set and monitored and that staff are given the tools, the development, training and autonomy to do their job
