ICF provides the UK Government with expert support in the design and delivery of process, impact and economic evaluations, helping decision-makers to understand what works, with what impact and why. Our clients include Defra, Natural England, DESNZ, DSIT, DCMS, DfE and MCHLG. Working for ICF gives access to intellectually challenging evaluation assignments that have a real world impact.

Strong demand for our services means we are accelerating the growth of our team and recruiting into roles at all levels of our organisation, from early career to experienced practitioners.

Experience of the design and/or delivery of evaluations in the UK.
