This recruitment will establish a pool of candidates from which the Lab will draw to fill various current and future positions at the Project Manager / Senior Analyst level. These roles are hybrid in nature, combining project leadership with analytical depth.
Project Manager
The Project Manager is responsible for leading the effective design, delivery, monitoring and impact of the Lab’s projects. This includes taking ownership of project planning and execution, ensuring quality and timeliness of deliverables, and proactively managing risks, stakeholders and resources. The Project Manager works closely with the relevant Project Lead and provides guidance and coordination across administrative, operational, analytical and engagement functions.
Senior Analyst
The Senior Analyst leads the production of high-quality research and analysis that is responsive to stakeholder needs and aligned with the Lab’s mission. This includes identifying research priorities based on emerging policy questions, designing and delivering analytical products, and shaping the Lab’s thought leadership. The role spans traditional analytical work as well as testing and advancing innovative methodologies.
Hybrid functions
Across both roles, the most critical expectations are that the Project Manager / Senior Analyst can:
• Manage complex and often time-sensitive communications with a diverse and frequently senior stakeholder group, exercising sound judgement and discretion.
• Operate flexibly and confidently in environments that require iteration, adaptation and growth, often in the face of ambiguity.
• Lead or contribute to the development, production and dissemination of research and analytical products through formal and informal channels, tailoring outputs to varied stakeholder needs.
The Project Manager / Senior Analyst will report to a member of the Lab’s leadership team or a designated Project Lead, and will work closely with the internal research team and our network of contractors, partners and vendors.
As part of a small and dynamic organisation, the Project Manager / Senior Analyst will also contribute to the Lab’s internal operations, strategy and organisational health, and play a key role in shaping culture.
Applications will close by 11 January 2026 and will be reviewed on an ongoing basis. Early applications are encouraged.
