What will you be doing?

Our guiding principle is that prevention is better than cure.

As a health think tank we have a track record of provided fresh thinking on health issues from Young People’s Mental Health to Covid, from Obesity to how best to encourage Physical Activity.

We have also acted as a catalyst to research with university partners. on topics from Health Behaviour Change to Student Mental Health.

An area we’ve recently been researching is the potential impact of AI on Mental Health – from social media algorithms and technostress to the impact on employment. So, this is an area where we would welcome informed support.

We’re also interested in how AI might help us operate more efficiently and effectively, from research to recruitment to influencing health policy, which is where your AI and IT experience can also make a significant contribution to our work.
