Dear all,

Our team at the Alan Turing Institute in London currently has a number of open positions that may be of interest to community members. I would be very grateful for your help in spreading the word. (The application deadline for the three ethics positions is fast approaching.)

Many thanks and all the best,
Florian

The Public Policy Programme at the Alan Turing Institute (London, UK) is looking for four new members to join its growing team. The vacancies comprise three postdoctoral roles (open to candidates with equivalent non-doctoral experience) and one research assistant role in different areas of thematic focus, including AI for Government and Digital Ethics. Details on each position can be found following the links below:

The Alan Turing Institute is the UK’s national institute for data science and artificial intelligence. The Institute’s goals are to undertake world-class research, apply its research to real-world problems, driving economic impact and societal good, lead the training of a new generation of scientists, and shape the public conversation around data and algorithms. Having launched in 2015, the Institute has grown an extensive network of university partners from across the UK and various major partnerships with industry, public and third sector organisations. Today it is home to more than 500 researchers, a rapidly growing team of in-house research software engineers and data scientists and a business team.
The Public Policy Programme works alongside policy makers to explore how data-driven public service provision and policy innovation can help to solve long running societal problems. We also work with public sector organisations and citizens to develop practice-based ethical standards for the responsible development and use of data science and AI. Our dynamic group has co-produced—with the Office for AI and the Government Digital Service—the UK Government’s official public sector guide for designing and implementing ethical and safe AI. We have also co-authored—with the Information Commissioner’s Office—the first guidance ever released by a UK regulator on explaining AI-assisted decisions. In addition to our work with government and regulators, we carry out interdisciplinary academic research on a wide variety of topics, from identifying policy priorities using agent computing to tackling modern slavery and quantifying online hate speech.
