Expert Application Advice
What this role involves
You will design and lead a participatory baseline study in Freetown, gathering gender-disaggregated data through field surveys, focus groups, and stakeholder consultations. Day-to-day tasks include managing local research teams, analyzing qualitative and quantitative data, and delivering a final report with actionable recommendations for gender programming in Sierra Leone.
Key skills to highlight
Show expertise in gender analysis frameworks (e.g., GESI, gender mainstreaming) and participatory research methods. Strong candidates demonstrate experience with community-based fieldwork in West Africa, proficiency in KoboCollect or similar digital tools, and ability to produce clear, policy-oriented reports.
Taf4All CV tip
List a specific past project where you conducted a baseline study or gender assessment, including location, sample size, and key findings. Use bold headings like “Gender Baseline Study – Freetown, 2023” to immediately signal relevance to this consultancy.
Before you apply
Verify the hiring organization by requesting a formal contract and checking their registration with Sierra Leone’s Ministry of Gender. Never pay for application fees or “training deposits.” If the contact email isn’t from a recognized NGO or UN domain, proceed with caution.
🎯 Make your application ATS-ready

- •Never pay any amount of money — for a file, a training, a uniform, or an interview. A real employer never asks the candidate to pay.
- •Never send a photo of your ID card, passport, or banking details before you have physically verified the employer exists.
- •Always meet in a public place, during the day — never an isolated address, a private home, or a location you cannot verify in advance.
- •Tell a relative or friend exactly where you are going, with whom, and at what time — and share your live location if possible.
- •Search the company name online before going: a real business has a trace (website, reviews, other employees, an official address).
- •A salary that is far above the market rate for the position and the city is a red flag — be extra cautious.
