Hanoi, Vietnam CIAT Full time

**The Organization**

The Alliance of Bioversity International and CIAT delivers research-based solutions that harness agricultural biodiversity and sustainably transform food systems to improve people’s lives. Alliance solutions address the global crises of malnutrition, climate change, biodiversity loss, and environmental degradation.

The Alliance works with local, national and multinational partners across Latin America and the Caribbean, Asia and Africa, and with the public and private sectors. The Alliance is part of CGIAR, a global research partnership for a food-secure future, dedicated to reducing poverty, enhancing food and nutrition security, and improving natural resources and ecosystem services.

**About the position**

Food systems transformation for sustainable healthy diets is impeded by the absence of accessible science-based evidence and practical tools for decision-making. Knowledge gaps range from an incomplete understanding of the demand for sustainable healthy diets; to the constraints in delivering affordable sustainable nutritious foods; to the limited evidence on food systems power and governance dynamics; to the poor understanding of trade-offs between goals and incentives of different actors; and to the lack of tested successful transformative pathways. The Alliance is involved in several initiatives and projects aiming to fill these gaps and seeks a research associate to contribute to this work.

The position will be based within the Alliance office in Hanoi, Vietnam. The Senior Research Associate will work in a multi-disciplinary team composed of national and international experts and will participate in various research activities, including characterizing, developing and implementing food systems/food environment interventions, and in documenting their outcomes and possible impacts. He/She will work with multiple national and sub-national stakeholders and food systems actors notably including micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), informal actors and consumers.

**Key duties and responsibilities**
- Conduct field research activities, including overseeing research implementation and data collection, and monitoring progress. Fieldwork methods will include, among other, quantitative data collection and qualitative interviews, focus group discussions and participatory workshops;
- Coordinate with external partners for data collection and other project activities, ensuring that research team needs are met;
- Deliver synthetic periodic reports describing the process and the outputs and publications of the research, to support the execution of research projects;
- Lead or contribute to data analysis, and production of research outputs and project deliverables (including notably progress reports, research reports, policy briefs and peer-review publications);
- Advise researchers on team capacities, processes and protocols, proposing solutions to anticipate and address issues that may affect research execution. Support identifying and linking with key national and sub-national stakeholders to be included in research activities;
- Contribute to the cohesion and development of good practices and trust among food systems actors, proactively identifying ways to increase engagement of national and sub-national stakeholders and opportunities to make processes more efficient and inclusive; and
- Join coordination meeting with other team members, participate to project schedules, and ensure the logistics, to ensure timely delivery of project activities.

**Required qualifications and experience**
- At least 5 years of relevant professional experience, in a research organization or an NGO;
- Bachelor’s degree (Master’s degree is desirable) in social sciences, international development, or business development;
- Experience conducting quantitative and qualitative research-action.

**Skills and competence**
- Ability to communicate complex ideas effectively, verbally and in writing, in both English and Vietnamese;
- Strong drive to learn new topics and skills, and to see research and ideas having positive impact in practice;
- Strong sense of professional pride and curiosity;
- Comfort with public speaking and workshop facilitation;
- Ability to work collaboratively in a team environment;
- Ability to work with various stakeholders in both public and private sector;
- Willing to spend time on the field, working with local stakeholders; and
- Enjoy working in an international environment and produce deliverables in English.

**Terms of employment**

This position is graded at **_BG7_** level, with a minimum basic salary of **_VND 29,629,345_** in a scale of BG01 to BG14 (BG14 being the highest level according to the Alliance job classification framework policy).
