You’ll spend most of your time working on the innovation challenges faced by our clients. You’ll typically work on 3-4 projects at once, and the nature of these projects can be remarkably varied, but here is a list of key things you will be doing:

• Bringing your technical skills and creativity to innovation challenges
• Collaborating closely with colleagues from different fields to solve broad and complex problems
• Conducting desk-based research (e.g., literature reviews) and primary research (qualitative and quantitative)
• Creating new ideas, insights, and models, and transferring this thinking between different applications and industries
• Challenging conventional thinking and industry-specific assumptions
• Helping to structure and create presentations for colleagues and clients

Requirements

It is important that you:

• Hold a Master’s/PhD degree in Behavioural Science or a closely related applied field (or have equivalent experience), with a strong foundation in psychology gained either through a psychology-focused master’s programme or an undergraduate degree in psychology.
• Have a good understanding of key principles in cognitive, social, biological and behavioural psychology, including behaviour change theories, and the ability to apply these insights to unfamiliar problems.
• Be comfortable managing and analysing datasets from studies and literature reviews, with a high level of attention to detail.
• Are keen to work in a dynamic commercial and client-focused environment.
• Have a strong interest in collaborative teamwork and have good communication skills.
• Are comfortable giving your considered opinion on complex questions, and taking part in lively discussions.
• Have excellent timekeeping and task management skills, to be able to take responsibility for your own work and time.
• Have an interest in applying your creativity across a wide range of industries, and the ability to quickly learn about new areas.
• Demonstrate commitment to valuing diversity and contributing to an inclusive, collaborative working and learning environment.
