Location(s): Raqqa, Syria (with support to Hasakah)
Reports to: Quality and Impact Coordinator (day-to-day); MREL Lead overall.
Duration: June 2026 – May 2027
About ASI and AFS
Adam Smith International (ASI) is a global advisory company that works locally to transform lives by making economies stronger, societies more stable, and governments more effective. Our clients are governments, international organisations, companies, and foundations. They come to us to develop strategies and to design, deliver and evaluate programmes that address the big challenges facing the world. Our core team of staff and technical experts, in multiple offices around the world, ensures the quality of delivery and high ethical standards that we and our clients require.
ASI is owned and operated by its employees. We are committed to corporate integrity and a triple bottom line of social, environmental and financial performance. This commitment was formally recognised when we became a certified B Corp. The certification indicates we balance profit and purpose through the highest standards of transparency and accountability as well as social and environmental performance.
The Aid Fund for Syria (AFS), formerly the Aid Fund for Northern Syria (AFNS), is a multi-donor pooled fund established in October 2022 to meet critical needs in Syria. Initially focused on addressing acute humanitarian needs in northern Syria through the cross-border response, AFS has since evolved into a flexible funding mechanism supporting efforts towards Humanitarian-Development-Peace (HDP) Nexus. Following the fall of the Assad regime in December 2024, AFS expanded its strategic focus to areas previously not accessible to AFS partners, adapting to Syria’s evolving political, economic, and institutional landscape. The Fund continues to work with aid actors, including communities, civil society organisations, the cluster coordination mechanism, the United Nations, and donors to identify where needs and opportunities are greatest and where it can add the most value.
Objective
The Quality and Impact Officer provide field assurance, evidence and insight for AFS delivery, with primary support to MEL (overseen by the MREL unit) and shared responsibilities to other units (Partnership and Delivery, Risk and Safeguarding, Finance, etc).

Work is organised through a monthly plan issued by the Quality and Impact Coordinator, who consolidates support needs submitted via an online tool and assigns tasks. The plan may be amended during the month, and additional tasks may be assigned as needed. Work is tracked against a performance indicator focused on quality and efficiency of delivery

Officers may be tasked to support other locations as needed, including cross-cover (e.g., an officer based in Aleppo supporting other governorates). Regular travel to Damascus, where feasible, may be required for workshops, coordination meetings and training. This distribution will be reviewed and adjusted based on demand, Allocation Strategies and project amendments. Priority will be given to applicants with demonstrable experience or knowledge of their chosen locations. Applicants may indicate more than one governorate in their application and rank their preferences based on experience.
