Careers

We acknowledge that many social groups and identities are under-represented in our team and we’re committed to changing this. We are particularly keen to receive applications from people of colour, people with disabilities, people who identify as LGBTQIA+, and people from other marginalised groups.

Our recruitment approach aims to make the opportunity as accessible as possible and ensure a diverse range of people are able to demonstrate their potential. We know that there is more that we can do to make this recruitment process more accessible, particularly if you have experienced exclusion, disadvantage or discrimination, or if you have specific accessibility needs.  

Research shows that men tend to apply for jobs when they meet around 60% of the criteria, while women and marginalised people tend to only apply when they check every criteria. So if you think you have what it takes, but don't necessarily meet every single point on the job description, please still apply.

DEAL is taking a precautionary approach to using AI powered tools, as it is a broad, complex, and rapidly evolving field. DEAL is minimising the use of AI, to ensure the authentic, human tone and relational approach remains the priority and at the core of everything we do. We  do not currently use AI to assess or shortlist candidates.

We encourage applicants to express their authentic voices, experiences, and capabilities throughout the application process as this helps us to assess and gain an understanding of your skills and abilities. We value genuine, experience-based responses and look forward to seeing the individuality and lived experiences that each candidate brings. 

However, we recognise the value AI is as a form of reasonable adjustments where it supports neurodiverse candidates, individuals with language barriers, or those with accessibility needs. If you wish to have a further conversation with us, please contact us on recruitment@doughnuteconomics.org.
