Do you have ideas for how to improve health systems and public health? Are you passionate about finding out what works to reduce loneliness and increase community wellbeing?

We are looking for dynamic and talented people who are passionate about using behavioural science to improve health and social capital. We are interested in candidates at both Advisor and Associate Advisor levels, from a range of backgrounds, including people who have been working in government, academia, charities, or consultancy. We plan to formally open applications for these new roles in the Health and Social Capital teams in the very near future. These roles will be based in our London office.

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.
