The Entrepreneurs Network is an independent, non-partisan think tank which champions Britain’s most ambitious entrepreneurs. We believe that innovative startups are an essential ingredient for increasing living standards by making people richer and driving progress by providing technological solutions to other pressing issues.

We are looking to hire a Researcher or Senior Researcher. The successful candidate will be a core member of the team – producing original policy reports and other written outputs, and contributing on other fronts, such as supporting our events programme and expanding our presence in the policymaking ecosystem.

The ideal candidate will be highly self-motivated with a strong interest in public policy and a drive to proactively identify new opportunities to influence the policy agenda. Applicants may be recent graduates, working in a similar role, or have already demonstrated the core competencies we’re looking for in another role.

Strong applicants will have an active interest in policies and issues that impact entrepreneurs and their values will be in strong alignment with those of The Entrepreneurs Network. We are able to sponsor visas for international applicants, subject to other conditions being met.

Role

• Assist the team in shaping and carrying out The Entrepreneurs Network’s policy and research agenda;
• Author briefing papers, op eds, newsletters, and blog posts on key policy areas;
• Represent The Entrepreneurs Network at events — including delivering speeches and briefings to policymakers;
• Proactively attend events of similar organisations to build a network of policymakers, journalists, entrepreneurs and sponsors;
• Support and lead in organising events, creating descriptions, researching and inviting speakers, attendees, and sponsors.
