What You'll Do
Conduct deep, on-the-ground research in challenging environments using qualitative methods such as contextual interviews, observation, journey mapping, and co-creation workshops. Translate findings into behavioral diagnoses by applying structured frameworks to uncover root motivations and barriers to change. Develop compelling, narrative-based strategies—including visual models, decision tools, and client playbooks—that guide organizations toward meaningful action.
Design interventions across messaging, organizational behavior, habit formation, and service design. Support clients through uncertainty, helping them make difficult decisions with clarity and confidence. Act as a trusted advisor, building relationships rooted in honesty and mutual respect. Contribute to the refinement of research methods, strategic approaches, and organizational culture.
Requirements
You bring substantial hands-on experience in behavior change—ideally around ten years or more—and a track record of applying behavioral science to real-world challenges. You’re skilled at turning ambiguous, complex data into clear, persuasive stories that mobilize teams. You’ve led field research in unpredictable, resource-constrained environments and remain composed and effective under pressure.
You’re adept at identifying core behavioral drivers and translating them into practical recommendations. You thrive in small teams, value candid feedback, and are committed to continuous growth. You’re comfortable with physical discomfort during periodic field trips—such as stays without reliable water, power, or sanitation—and adapt easily across time zones. You lead with calm, humility, and resilience, stepping forward or back as the situation demands.
Benefits
This role begins as a paid project with competitive fees and the possibility of transitioning to a core team position. Enjoy a 4-day workweek with full pay, 30 additional paid days off annually, and paid international travel for fieldwork. Access stipends for professional development, workspace improvements, and healthcare support. Participate in annual team retreats and industry conferences. The initial project fee ranges from USD $16,000 to $24,000 (negotiable), covering all taxes. Future compensation scales with impact, offering significant growth potential.
