Socialprotection.org Seeks Researchers for Its English and Arabic Roster: Remote Opportunity | Apply by 13 October 2026

Overview

The organisation is seeking qualified professionals to join its Researcher Roster, creating a pool of experts who can support upcoming research, policy development, learning, and knowledge management activities. This initiative focuses on English and Arabic language capabilities, and accepted candidates may be contacted for future assignments based on project requirements and organizational needs. Inclusion in the roster does not guarantee employment, a consultancy contract, or a future assignment, as all contractual conditions and deliverables will be determined separately for each individual project.

Who can apply

Applicants must possess expertise in areas such as research, policy analysis, social protection, development studies, knowledge management, technical writing, or e-learning. Candidates need the ability to gather information from reliable sources, analyze evidence, produce clear written outputs, and collaborate with stakeholders. Arabic-language research skills and the ability to work with English-language sources are central to this opportunity, and familiarity with Middle Eastern and North African country contexts may also be valuable.

Requirements

Interested candidates must submit a Curriculum Vitae containing previous positions, primary responsibilities, employment dates in month and year format, qualifications, email address, telephone number, and contact details for at least three recent professional references. Applicants must also provide a cover letter explaining their relevant experience, research expertise, language capabilities, and suitability for the roster. All application documents must be emailed to contact@socialprotection.org using the subject line Roster for Researcher.

Key dates

The application deadline is 13 October 2026. Only shortlisted candidates will be contacted for further steps.
