Our work falls primarily in three verticals:
sustainability and climate change (e.g. understanding barriers/enablers to reducing food waste and meat/dairy consumption among Londoners for ReLondon)
health and wellbeing (e.g. supporting NHS England on the future strategic direction of NHS digital channels)
equity and inclusion (e.g. working with disabled benefits claimants to improve service delivery for DWP)

We have one entry-level role open for a Research Executive to join our growing team of 10 people. If you are interested in applying behavioural science to generate insights and evidence that can be applied to issues relating to our core pillars.

We are a two-year old start-up so be prepared to roll your sleeves up and get stuck in to everything from new business to project delivery to contributing to our business strategy and culture. This is a unique opportunity to play a part in building/development a new business.
