Unearthodox is seeking a Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning (MEL) Specialist.

At Unearthodox, we're making space for as many people as possible to rewrite the narrative of nature conservation.

We believe in a world that not only values nature but actively works to regenerate it. By bridging gaps, fostering unique collaborations, and challenging the status quo, we're working to catalyse futures where nature and society thrive.

Dive into a journey of innovation, co-creation, and transformative change with us.


Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning (MEL) Specialist

As our Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning (MEL) Specialist, you will be at the heart of our learning culture, ensuring that our transformative initiatives don’t just inspire but create lasting, systemic impact.

In this role, you will:

  • Refine and implement a MEL framework that tracks the ripple effects of our work.
  • Analyse data and patterns, translating insights into practical, forward-looking strategies.
  • Support our three programmes - Regenerative Futures, the Exploration Co-Lab, and the Creative Futures Space - helping us refine and scale our initiatives.
  • Embed a culture of learning, ensuring that adaptation and reflection drive our mission forward.

This isn’t just about evaluation - it’s about shaping how we learn, adapt, and evolve.

Is This You?

Do you see patterns where others see noise? Can you navigate complexity with confidence, helping teams turn uncertainty into opportunity?

Are you passionate about measuring transformation, not just outputs? Do you believe data is only as powerful as the decisions it informs?

Are you at home in emergent, co-creative environments where learning is continuous and adaptation is key?

If so, here’s what makes you a strong candidate:

  • MEL Specialist and Systems Thinker: You have 5+ years of experience in impact evaluation, data analysis, and learning processes.
  • Futures-Oriented Evaluator: You understand how to assess transformation in social and environmental systems, identifying both intended and unintended consequences.
  • Change Navigator: You’re comfortable in complex, ever-evolving spaces, using foresight and adaptability to refine MEL approaches.
  • Global Thinker: You thrive in international settings, understand cultural nuances, and can work seamlessly across time zones. Fluency in English is essential; another European language is a bonus.
  • Collaborative Learning Champion: You believe in building capacity across teams, embedding MEL into decision-making, and fostering a culture of continuous learning.
  • Diversity Advocate: For you, diversity, equity, and inclusion aren’t just buzzwords - they shape how you work.
  • Team Player: You thrive in multi-disciplinary teams, co-creating solutions with a diverse range of stakeholders.

This role is an opportunity to reshape how impact is measured, understood, and scaled.
