Demos

Who we are

Demos is a highly respected cross-party think tank with a unique approach to making policy to solve our long term problems. Building on nearly 30 years of creativity, ideas and impact, Demos is working to shape a more collaborative democracy, in which power is devolved, citizens participate in policy making, and together as a nation we find answers to the challenges of our century.

Our work focuses on:

• Public Service Reform, to liberate citizens and public servants and prevent problems
• A Citizen Economy, where people, businesses, charities and government work together to achieve growth that works for people as well as prots
• More Trustworthy Technology, in which technological progress aligns with the needs and values of citizens
• A more Collaborative Democracy, in which politicians, experts and citizens partner to tackle the challenges facing our country

Equality, diversity and inclusion policy

At Demos, we recognise, celebrate and promote the positive contributions that are made by diverse groups. We exist to proactively tackle social and economic exclusion and engaging with and promoting the voices of people whose voices may not otherwise be heard is core to our work. We believe that this should be reected in our team and we strongly encourage applications from people from minority ethnic communities, people with disabilities, or others with lived experience of disadvantage. We expect all members of our team to recognise and value differences and the unique contributions that people make to the way we conduct our work and develop our insights, and encourage people to bring their diverse perspectives and backgrounds into their work on a day-to-day basis. We have exible working policies and would be happy to discuss exible working requirements with any candidates. Read our full DIEJ policy on our website.
