**Background and Context**:
The Independent Evaluation Group (IEG)'s mission is to improve World Bank Group (WBG) development results through excellence in evaluation. IEG is responsible for the assessment of the relevance, efficacy, and efficiency of WBG operational policies, programs and activities, and their contribution to development effectiveness. IEG's evaluations aim to enhance accountability and learning to inform the formulation of new (and course corrections of ongoing) core work of the WBG.

IEG is directly responsible for:

- Proposing strategic choices about the IEG work program after consultations with external stakeholders, the Boards, and WBG management, ensuring it is relevant and aligned with the Institutions' key strategic priorities, overall resources, and with the main development challenges affecting its member countries.
- Evaluating whether the WBG Institutions' core work is producing the expected results, including global, regional, and other programs in which the institution(s) is a participant.
- Incorporating evaluation assessments and findings into recommendations designed to help improve the development effectiveness of the WBG's core work, and their responsiveness to member countries' needs and concerns.
- Reviewing the Institutions' operational self-evaluations.
- Reporting regularly to the Boards on actions taken by the institution(s) in response to evaluation findings, and on the measures, being taken to improve the overall operations evaluation system and enhance learning, including dissemination and outreach activities.
- Identifying, disseminating, and promoting the uptake of evaluation findings and lessons to maximize contributions to the WBG's learning and knowledge framework and reinforce learning and accountability within the WBG in reference to achieving the corporate goals.
- Contributing to the international evaluation community, including knowledge-sharing with other multilateral and bilateral institution
- Encouraging and assisting member countries to build effective monitoring and evaluation partnerships, capacities, and systems.

IEG's organizational structure comprises: The Office of the Director General, Evaluation (IEGDG) which includes the Methods Advisory Function (IEGMA); the Human Development and Economic Management Department (IEGHE); the Finance, Private Sector and Sustainable Development Department (IEGSP); and the Knowledge and Communications Department (IEGKC). Through the VP and Director General of Evaluation (DGE), IEG reports directly to the Board of Executive Directors.

**Methods Advisory Function**

IEG’s objective is to help the WBG meet its goals and enhance its development effectiveness through timely, robust evaluation. In 2016, as part of its organizational renewal, IEG’s Methods Advisory Function (IEGMA) was established to help deepen the quality and credibility of IEG evaluation work. The Methods Advisory Function consists of a small centrally located team of data scientists and methodologists managed by the Head of methods.
- Advising IEG staff on the best available evaluation methods to address specific evaluation questions and supporting teams in the implementation of those methods.
- Quality assuring IEG’s evaluation products and advising the IEG’s leadership on the credibility and rigor of evaluation plans and reports.
- Ensuring consistent and efficient use of data in evaluations through support to IEG’s data arrangements, systems, and staffing of analysts.
- Through a learning program, supporting the development of evaluation skills among IEG staff and ensuring that internal and external audiences understand and appreciate the rationale for IEG’s evaluation methodologies and approaches.
- Sharing IEG’s methodological knowledge and know-how with the broader international evaluation community, including but not limited to other members of the Evaluation Cooperation Group

**Duties and responsibilities**:

- **Provide advisory support to evaluation teams.** The Data Scientist will provide specialized methodological and data support to evaluation teams, including:

- Helping evaluation teams develop their sampling/selection approaches, plan for econometric analysis, develop qualitative data collection and analysis plans (e.g., interview or case-based design), or any other mixed-methods approach
- Advising evaluation teams on their data management, processing and analysis practices
- Coaching evaluation teams on the use of specialized software or tools (e.g, content analysis software, statistical packages)
