**Position**:
**PUBLIC POLICY PROGRAMME**

The Public Policy research programme works alongside policy makers to explore how data-driven public service provision and policy innovation might help to solve long running societal problems. We also work hand-in-hand with public sector organisations and citizens to develop practice-based ethical standards for the responsible development and use of data science and AI. Our dynamic group has co-produced—with the Office for AI and the Government Digital Service—the UK Government’s official public sector guide for designing and implementing ethical and safe AI. We have also co-authored—with the Information Commissioner’s Office—the first guidance ever released by a UK regulator on explaining AI-assisted decisions.

**THE ROLE**

The Public Policy programme is looking to recruit an Ethics Fellows to help us advance our innovative and high-profile research. As an Ethics Fellow, you report to the Director of Ethics and Responsible Innovation Research, and work closely with the leadership of the Public Policy programme to (1) support the programme’s important role as an advisor to public sector organisations on the responsible design and deployment of AI systems; (2) engage in original and cutting-edge academic research, which marshals an interdisciplinary vision to interrogate the social, political, economic, environmental, legal, and ethical impacts of AI and ML technologies; and (3) take a proactive role in advancing our commitment to inclusive participation in AI governance and regulation through public engagement at all levels of civil society, both nationally and internationally.

Among the ongoing Ethics Theme projects in which the Ethics Fellow may be actively involved are:

- Developing innovative curricular material and delivery methods for our national Turing Commons training platform;
- Producing an algorithmic impact assessment and assurance framework with a concentration on international human rights as well as an accompanying user’s guide;
- Advancing global and intercultural perspectives on data justice through collaborative research and public engagement;
- Supporting the development of a global AI policy and governance network that brings together civil society organisations, policymakers, developers, and impacted communities to explore some of the most pressing AI and technology policy issues facing the society of tomorrow.

**DUTIES & RESPONSIBILTIES**

The core responsibilities of Ethics Fellow are as follows:

- Support the Director of Ethics and Responsible Innovation Research in achieving the goals of the Public Policy programme and in advancing a forward-looking research agenda in the fields of digital ethics and AI and society.
- Carrying out original and high-quality interdisciplinary research by contributing to existing funded projects and by pursuing your own research passions and interests in the fields of digital ethics or AI and society.
- Assisting the Public Policy programme in its public sector advisory capacity by forming strong relationships with government partners and by initiating values-based conversations on policy direction and innovation.
- Developing and leading on the Ethics Theme’s public engagement work with a focus on ensuring that the voices of those individuals and communities most impacted by AI and ML innovations are heard.
- Participate in knowledge exchange activities as appropriate.
- Representing the Turing at external conferences and events.
- Working with the Institute’s Communications team to ensure that the Turing’s ethics research is effectively promoted in the mainstream media.
- Working in close coordination with other members of the Public Policy programme to maximise the programme’s influence on ongoing policy debates.
- Building relationships with external organisations concerned with digital rights and freedoms to support the Ethics Team’s commitment to social and data justice.

**Requirements**:

- A PhD or equivalent experience in a discipline that provides suitable theoretical tools for understanding the ethical issues raised by data science, ML, AI, and other digital technologies, as well as their social implications. This degree may either be in a discipline of the humanities and social sciences or in an academic field directly related to the technical aspects of digital innovation such as computer science, HCI, robotics, or statistics;
- Experience in applied ethics research and/or technology policy, e.g., computing ethics, business ethics, biomedical ethics, environmental ethics, or the regulation of technology, within organisational contexts such
