Identifies and recruits subject-matter experts for primary research interviews supporting life science consulting engagements.
THISÂ APPLICATION ISÂ FORÂ RESEARCHÂ SPECIALISTÂ OPPORTUNITIESÂ COMMENCING IMMEDIATELY, IN 2026.
Location: London, England or New York City.  Fully remote status in the UK or the State of New York may also be considered under special circumstances.  Immediate start.
Employment type:Â Full-time
***Please complete the short answer questions in lieu of a cover letter.  Most interviews will take place remotely, online. Final round interviews will take place either remotely or at a DeciBio office.***
About DeciBio:
See our profile on Vault.com (which ranks us in their top Consulting 50 and #1 in Innovation), our website (decibio.com), and IG @ deci.bio.
The opportunity
Our consulting teams rely heavily on primary research, including interviews with scientists, clinicians, industry executives, commercial leaders, and other subject-matter experts.   They also leverage our proprietary data sets, market reports, and expert network (run by Dexter, our SaaS subsidiary).
Thus, we are seeking a Research Specialist to help us consistently identify and engage the right experts for our primary research conversations.  The Research Specialist will own much of the process for recruiting subject-matter experts for DeciBio’s consulting engagements and proprietary research.  Working across multiple projects at once, you will translate research needs into clear expert profiles, identify relevant candidates, conduct persistent and professional outreach, assess candidates’ fit, and coordinate one-hour interviews between experts and our consulting teams:
This unique role provides an opportunity to engage with and support stakeholders across DeciBio’s departments.
The role combines research, recruiting, relationship-building, project coordination, and elements of sales. It is not a consulting analyst position, although it provides significant exposure to life-sciences markets, strategic questions, and senior industry professionals.
Over time, the role may expand into broader Knowledge Center responsibilities, including:  training and/or managing future research specialists, more complex important sourcing engagements, expert-network development initiatives, supporting DeciBio’s internal and proprietary Intelligence Portal, AI-enabled research, special research projects, business-development support, knowledge management, and eventually the management of additional research-support resources.  The right employee could also grow to help identify and coordinate qualified business development conversations.
Requirements
Compensation
In addition to base salary, DeciBio offers performance-based incentives, year-end company-wide profit sharing, and comprehensive employee benefits.
The incentive component may reflect successful completion of qualified expert interviews, sourcing quality, responsiveness, accuracy, and broader team contribution. Specific compensation will depend on location and experience.

Our portfolio of brands including FailArmy, Family Handyman, People Are Awesome, Reader’s Digest, Taste of Home, The Healthy, and The Pet Collective, is powered by content that’s inspired and created by our fans.

Location:
We have offices in New York, Los Angeles, Milwaukee, and Gurgaon. This position will be based in the United States and can work remotely.
About the role:
TMB is looking for a Director of Data Science & AI to lead the team and efforts to turn data into decisions, deliver scalable intelligence that drives personalized experiences and business outcomes, and lean into AI and Automation where it makes sense. You understand how business users think, what friction looks like in real workflows, and how to communicate technical solutions in ways that land with non-technical users.
Your primary mission is to bridge the gap between what’s technically possible and what’s practically useful. This is a hands-on leadership role: you’ll set the technical direction, but you’ll also be in the data, in the model reviews, and building alongside your team when it counts. We need someone fluent in Google Cloud Platform (BigQuery, Vertex AI, and broader GCP ecosystem), has strong data science capabilities and the grit to take ideas from research to production.
You are a fast learner who is comfortable in ambiguity, energized by solutioning, and motivated by seeing your work drive real adoption across the organization. You’ll spend your time championing smarter ways of working and helping both technical and non-technical teammates integrate AI into their everyday work, not as a disruption, but as a natural extension of how they already operate.
Your day-day: (aka Responsibilities)
You have: (aka Qualifications)
About this team:
The Data Science team is a small but mighty group sitting at the center of the organization. We’re a centralized team, which means we work across nearly every department: from Marketing and Creative to BI, Engineering, Product, and beyond. If there’s a workflow to improve, a tool to build, or a data problem worth solving, chances are we’re involved.
Our work is practical by design. We build internal tools and data products that make real work easier, not to chase trends, but because the right solution at the right moment can meaningfully change how an entire team operates. We use AI where it genuinely helps, and we’re skeptical of hype for its own sake. That pragmatic instinct is part of what makes us effective.
As a team, we move fast and stay scrappy. We’re not a big org with lengthy approval chains. We prototype, iterate, and ship. We collaborate constantly, both within the team and across the business, and we’re at our best when we’re working alongside stakeholders to understand their problems firsthand rather than solving in a vacuum.
If you’re joining us, you’re joining a team that values curiosity, initiative, and craft. Our team genuinely believes the most impactful data work happens when technical depth meets real business context.
Our Benefits:
We value our people and offer a collaborative and engaging culture. As a Trusted Media Brands employee, you will enjoy work/life balance, generous time off and comprehensive benefits and programs. Learn more about what life is like working at Trusted Media Brands at https://www.trustedmediabrands.com/careers/.
Trusted Media Brands embraces inclusivity and values our diverse community. We are committed to building a team based on qualifications, merit and business need.

Growth Strategist
About the Role
We are looking for an exceptional Growth Strategist to join our Growth team. This is one of the most senior strategic roles within FINN Partners and is suited to an experienced agency strategist with deep research expertise and the judgment to turn findings into clear, actionable strategy. Research is the foundation of this role, and it exists to drive decisions. This person will move fluidly across primary and secondary research, digital and social listening, and AI-enabled methods, using whichever combination best answers the question at hand, and will translate what they learn into insight that reframes how clients see their business, audience, market, or competition. From there, they will make clear strategic recommendations, working closely with specialists across the agency to ensure those recommendations are realistic and implementable.
While the role sits within the Growth team and plays a critical part in winning new business, it extends beyond RFPs and pitches. This person will also provide strategic and research leadership on existing client accounts, including engagements they were not involved in winning.

Conducts desk reviews, designs surveys, collects primary data through interviews and focus groups, and analyzes findings to evaluate technical assistance programs across African health systems.
This role was posted on August 6, 2026. Please note that we will review applications on a rolling basis.
The Role​
At Last Mile Health (LMH), we dig data. Are you passionate about using research and evaluation to strengthen community health systems across Africa? If so, you may be the perfect fit to join the Africa Frontline First (AFF) Initiative as a Technical Assistance Evaluator.
Since 2023, the Africa Frontline First (AFF) Initiative has coordinated the delivery of technical assistance (TA) to strengthen community health systems and financing across a portfolio of 17 countries in Africa. AFF is now undertaking a comprehensive evaluation to assess the relevance, quality, utility, influence, and sustainability of these technical assistance efforts. The evaluation will document key results and lessons learned while generating actionable recommendations to strengthen the design and delivery of future technical assistance.
To support this work, AFF is recruiting two individual consultants to join the evaluation team. One consultant will primarily support Anglophone countries and one consultant (with fluency in French) will primarily support Francophone countries, as part of a team delivering on the defined evaluation framework. Both consultants will play a central role in data collection, analysis, and reporting throughout the evaluation, under the guidance of an Evaluation Manager, Steering Committee and Evaluation Advisory Group. This work will involve extensive desk review of existing program documentation, design and implementation of a written survey, travel to two African countries each (two English-speaking and two Francophone) for primary data collection through KIIs and FGDs, and analysis of findings, validation workshops, and development of final presentation materials.
This is a remote consultancy open to candidates working within Europe and Africa time zones.

Partner with our ESP events team to host workshops, convenings, and meetings that bring partners together around our agenda.
The Economic Security Project (ESP) advocates for ideas that build economic power for all Americans by legitimizing bold concepts through cutting-edge research and the elevation of key champions. By winning concrete policy victories for communities in immediate need and provoking conventional wisdom, the organization actively shifts the boundaries of what is considered possible in the economic landscape. Their diverse team of academics, organizers, practitioners, and culture makers facilitates this change by disbursing grants, running targeted issue campaigns, developing creative interventions, and convening leaders to spur broader investment and collective action.
By convening thousands through strategic briefings and marquee events, ESP has successfully set a bold agenda for a more just political economy. Their advocacy led to the modernization of tax codes in over seven states and secured more than $1 trillion in direct relief for families during the pandemic, including a pivotal federal campaign for the expanded Child Tax Credit. These cash-based interventions famously “defied gravity” by reducing poverty in the midst of a recession. Beyond policy wins, they have fortified the field by investing over $25 million into groundbreaking research, grassroots coalitions, and narrative interventions that advance racial and economic justice. Through these efforts, they have moved once-radical ideas into the mainstream, championing a vision where individuals possess the agency to be the true authors of their own lives.
The Economic Security Project fosters a high-performance, remote-first culture rooted in accountability and growth. Committed to diversity and inclusion, ESP ensures its policies are informed by diverse lived experiences while investing heavily in professional development. ESP supports employee well-being through flexible remote work, regular office closures, and a five-year sabbatical program, balancing rigorous strategic planning with in-person connection and a spirited office culture.
