MPI’s Global Program seeks a full-time Associate Policy Analyst to support the team with rigorous empirical research and comparative analysis on a range of migration policy topics — from the impact of demographic change on labor markets to the future of refugee protection to managing climate-related migration. The program operates globally, with an established portfolio of projects in Latin America, East Africa, and Europe, and emerging work in South/Southeast Asia, the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, and Australia.

We are a tight-knit, dynamic team where everyone gets a chance to contribute intellectually.

In turn, we expect team members to be curious, willing to learn, and ready to jump into diverse types of work along the lifecycle of a project (from background research to fieldwork to convening to project management to grant reporting). Successful applicants will demonstrate exquisite attention to detail and the ability to juggle multiple projects and deadlines in a fast-paced environment. 

About MPI and the Global Program

From direct policy advice to deep comparative research, its work interrogates policy design and effectiveness, helps countries newer to immigration learn from innovation and evidence in other regions, and anticipates how demographic, economic, and technological shifts will reshape migration in the years ahead. It supports governments in responding to crises with greater coordination and foresight, and provides a trusted off-the-record space for engaging with sensitive topics. 

Duties and Responsibilities

• Deliver in-depth policy analysis with clear interpretations and actionable recommendations, and help shape the methodology behind new research projects.
• Draft and edit background notes and analytical reports, policy briefs, and other research materials with minimal supervision and under tight deadlines. 
• Contribute to and co-author MPI publications and short-form work, with opportunities to single- or lead-author policy briefs as experience grows. 
• Assist senior staff in fundraising and grant management duties, including contributing to grant proposals and reports, and researching prospective funding opportunities.
• Support with organizing high-level roundtables and private meetings, including developing agendas and concept notes, liaising with participants, and briefing speakers.
• In time and with support, engage with the news media.

Required Skills 

• Master’s degree with 3–5 years of direct experience, or equivalent combination of education and experience. 
• Strong research and analytical skills, with the ability to collect and make sense of large volumes of data from primary and secondary sources, surveys, and/or fieldwork. Experience conducting original quantitative analysis (using statistical programming software) is a plus, though not required.
• Knowledge of international migration trends and policies with specific expertise in one or more countries outside the United States preferred (particularly in Africa, Latin America, or Europe).
• Sharp writing and oral communication skills (comfort with public speaking and/or ability to visualize, present, and explain data effectively is a plus). 
• High motivation and initiative, with the ability to juggle multiple assignments, prioritize, and meet deadlines in a fast-paced, rapidly evolving environment. 
• Curiosity and willingness to read widely and bring in new thinking or methods from other policy areas.

About Emergent Fund  

Movements have long relied on creative collective responses to crises and catalytic moments as strategic opportunities to advance visionary organizing. Emergent Fund and Emergent Action Fund are movement rapid response funds led by and for organizers with intersectional, collective liberation values. As a nationally recognized philanthropy culture disruptor and praxis leader, Emergent Fund challenges power in who we fund as well as with how we fund. We serve as one of the few open, accessible trust-based, no strings attached grants for rapid response and emergent organizing led by frontline Black, Indigenous, and people of color. All our grantmaking is driven by the leadership of directly impacted communities who are committed to building movement and transforming sociopolitical catalysts into lasting social change. Our model demonstrates that people-powered philanthropy can move at the speed of trust and at a pace that meets movements’ needs. 

The need to build capacity for our work is clear. In the almost 10 years since our inception, the Emergent Fund has mobilized almost $20 Million directly into the hands of frontline organizers and thousands of movement organizations across the US and its colonized territories. The Movement Building Team is now in critical need of support and partnership to execute their vision for movement-aligned grantmaking and movement building.
