Job Description

Suvita is an impact-driven, evidence-based nonprofit focused on increasing uptake of routine childhood vaccinations in India. Roughly half of the 19 million children who still miss basic vaccines are based in India, where one child dies every four minutes from vaccine-preventable diseases.

We are looking for a Research Analyst who is excited to apply rigorous research skills to pressing social challenges. You will contribute directly to a pivotal stage of Suvita’s growth and scale-up plans in India, while gaining hands-on experience with the day-to-day of high-quality research.

​

The position sits at the intersection of research and decision-making. You will synthesise data, prepare analyses, and produce insights that go beyond academic outputs. Your work will directly inform Suvita’s strategy, from where we expand our programmes to how we make them more cost-effective. You will also work closely with leading partners such as J-PAL. In particular, you’ll contribute to an RCT Suvita is conducting with J-PAL. If you are detail-oriented, motivated by impact, and eager to learn from and contribute to top researchers and practitioners, we would be excited to hear from you. For the right candidate, this role also offers the opportunity to take on greater responsibility and grow quickly within the organisation.

• Reporting & communication: Draft project reports, prepare outputs, present findings to the team, and correspond with partners, field teams, or donors as needed.
