Communication and Evidence Synthesis Specialist

Job Type: Full Time

Location: Nairobi, Kenya

About ICED: The International Centre for Evaluation and Development (ICED) fills an important gap in the evaluation of development initiatives focusing on the Global South. ICED is an independent, African-owned and led think tank that works to use the outputs of innovative research and evaluation to contribute to and enhance development outcomes and impacts.

Position Summary: ICED is seeking an experienced Communication and Evidence Synthesis Specialist to translate complex research findings from ICED's research teams into clear, actionable, and audience-appropriate products. The Specialist will work at the interface of research and communication, converting technical evidence into policy briefs, presentations, media content, and digital/social media products that inform decision-making by policymakers, government officials, development practitioners, and the public. The specialist will support proposal development by contributing communication and dissemination plans for new projects. The role is based in Nairobi and will support multiple ICED research teams across projects and countries.

Key Responsibilities:

Evidence Synthesis: Review, synthesize, and translate technical data and studies from ICED research portals into accessible, non-technical language. Demonstrate experience in evidence synthesis methodologies. Develop evidence-based decision-making products, including policy briefs, technical summaries, fact sheets, infographics, blogs, opinion pieces, executive briefs, toolkits, posters, checklists, guidelines, knowledge products, and slide decks, tailored to the needs of specific audiences. Working closely with researchers and technical leads to accurately distilling key messages, findings, and recommendations without compromising technical integrity. Maintain a repository of synthesized evidence products for reuse and adaptation across ICED's research portfolio, and maintaining an institutional knowledge management system which ensures that products are easily accessible for future use.

Communications & Content Development: Design and produce communication materials (briefs, reports). Manage ICED's social media presence and digital communication channels, developing content calendars and audience-appropriate messaging. Support the update of ICED website to ensure that research outputs are uploaded promptly. Draft press releases, media briefs, and talking points, and support media engagement and interviews for ICED researchers and leadership. Ensure consistent branding, tone, and quality across all external-facing evidence and communication products. Ensure that all communication products comply with donor branding and visibility requirements.

Stakeholder Engagement & Dissemination: Manage the ICED ALL-IN Network and support the planning and execution of dissemination events, webinars, workshops, and policy dialogues with government and development partners which includes coordinating publication launches and conference presentations. Build and maintain relationships with media
