Are you interested in International Development? Do you know something about crime and justice? Do you think you have ideas to prevent conflict, improve social cohesion or reduce violence?

We are looking for dynamic and talented people who are passionate about using behavioural science to improve lives. If you have a background in government, academia or consultancy, please read further.

We are interested in candidates at all levels - if you are just starting out in your career or have a wealth of experience, that doesn’t matter.

About BIT

The Behavioural Insights Team works with governments around the world in almost every policy area. Whilst the subject and output of our projects vary considerably, there are common threads: we try to understand the contexts in which people make decisions; we notice small details; we find out what has and hasn’t worked before, and we measure everything we do as robustly as we can.

About the Team

In Home Affairs, you could be working closely with police forces, the Ministry of Justice and the Home Office, to design and implement field trials on issues such as police recruitment, reducing cybercrime and reducing re-offending, among others.

In International Programmes, you could be working on field trials with middle- and lower-income countries across Latin America, Eastern Europe, Africa and South-East Asia, looking at issues such as financial inclusion, education, health, crime and corruption prevention, and social security, among others.
