Main Purpose of Job

The Office for National Statistics (ONS) and the National Institute of Statistics of Rwanda (NISR) entered into a partnership in 2018. The partnership is led by a Strategic Adviser who started in country in April 2019.

The partnership aims to support NISR to deliver on its “vision to unlock the potential of a productive data value chain and a mission for NISR to deepen its role as leader of the National Statistical System”. NISR see the UK as a natural partner to enable them to lead the Data Revolution Policy for Rwanda and deliver on the objectives set out in Rwanda’s Third National Strategy for Statistics by modernising their operations and improving evidence-based decision making by stakeholders. ONS is supporting NISR in five key areas:  Progress towards building a fully-functional Data Science Department in NISR, improving the operating environment for data science in Rwanda, SDG Platform fully functional with correct data being used, more effective communications improving the awareness and use of NISR data and increased capacity in terms of working practices improving the underlying efficiency of NISR.

The partnership model relies on deploying technical expertise from the ONS, as well as taking advantage of support from other organisations with the appropriate expertise.  To effectively deploy this expertise and deliver on the workplan, a substantial amount of networking and collaboration is required both with internal NISR stakeholders as well as externally with both State and non- state actors in the data ecosystem. The Project Delivery Officer will be instrumental in managing, leading and the implementation of several high-level support portfolios.

The position will be managed by the Strategic Advisor with support from ONS Headquarters in the UK.  ONS will also ensure that the role stays plugged into the team in FCDO Rwanda due to their interest and leadership on Statistics within British High Commission (BHC) and to facilitate regular contact with colleagues in the BHC.




Main Duties and Responsibilities

To support NISR to make improvements on how they operate and support NISR to deliver key policy objectives set out in Rwanda’s Third National Strategy for the Development of Statistics and the 2017 Data Revolution Policy. It requires a motivated self- starter interested in delivering on a range of topics and building relationships across varied stakeholders. The postholder will need to work independently and be confident in managing, leading and implementing several portfolios. There are technical statistical elements to this work, however the postholder does not need to have technical statistical expertise; rather the understanding of how this expertise should be delivered to achieve planned objectives.




NISR – ONS Partnership:

  • Develop a good understanding of NISR, the services they provide, how these are implemented and how they work with other parts of Govt. A keen understanding of the institution and how it is run will be crucial for the job.
  • Develop a clear understanding of the partnership Theory of Change (ToC), workplan and activities and develop working relationships with NISR officials as well as Officials in other areas of Govt to ensure that the partnership workplan is well understood including requirements from these colleagues especially for expert visits and training.
  • Manage, lead and implement several statistical and partnership portfolios that will help us deliver against our programme objectives, in line with the ToC. This will involve working closely with senior NISR leaders, their staff and broader stakeholders as well as ONS staff.
