Your approach to work is energetic, positive, adaptable, and sparks joy for the team and our clients If this sounds like you, there may be an opening with your name on it at Common Thread. The Role Here’s some of the exciting things you can expect to be doing as part of this role:

  • Leading Common Thread’s Behavioural Science arm of the company, including how we approach projects and integrate the best of Beh Sci systematically into our processes, and analysing its role within the broader Social and Behaviour Change (SBC) toolkit
  • A large part of the day-to-day for this role will be leading and managing projects and client engagements, ensuring they meet our high standards for rigour, creativity, people-first approaches, and all within budgetary limitations
  • Working closely with the HCD, Design and our entire multidisciplinary team at Common Thread to define and implement Common Thread’s approach to Behavioural Design

Who we are We are a curious and creative bunch of experts and innovators who share in the belief that a change in behaviour can change the world. We believe that human behaviour—however illogical—is never a fault or a flaw. It’s a feature. We seek to understand it. We see people as a critical, yet too often ignored part of successful health initiatives. Our clients include the world’s leading organisations in public health, international development, and philanthropy. By connecting behavioural insights with community insights, we design public health solutions rooted in the social and cultural minutiae of communities across the globe. How we work We’re a virtual company, based across multiple time zones and countries. All our team members are contractors who have the flexibility to choose where they live, though we commit to a core block of hours when everyone can be collaborating. Strong communication and collaboration skills are essential to success in this role We search hard for creative team players who can work independently, but also collaborate with a talented team, learn together, and design powerful behavioural solutions that blend the best of human-centred design, behavioural science, anthropology, marketing and other disciplines. #J-18808-Ljbffr
