Program and Position Overview : LJI's anti-human trafficking strategy and its orphan care work depends greatly on finding the right people. Given this, we’ve made it our mission to specialize in finding the right people. Our core competency is searching out the people, places, and tools to maximize mission impact . To do this, we’ve developed (and have ideas to develop) a number of human assessments using predictive modeling, including:
- Mindset, Work Beliefs, and Moral Reasoning assessments used for hiring LJI Staff
- Specific assessments for national office staff, teachers, parents, monitors, and fundraisers
The Human Assessment Specialist will report to the CEO. The position would ideally be based in the Dolphin Coast, South Africa, however, it’s also possible for it to be remote.
Primary Duties and Responsibilities : The primary duty of the Human Assessment Specialist is to carry forward and further develop the methodologies developed by LJI for building these assessments, and use it to continually improve them, including:
- With stakeholders, coming up with potential evolutions of the assessments and testing them
- Regularly gathering new data from Love Justice staff and other sources, including coming up with unique ways to get data to make these assessments more robust
- Collecting and helping to prepare data from these assessments for predictive modeling (to be done by our Data Science team)
- Helping to build tools to use these assessments and the predictive models generated by them for hiring and developing staff
The duties listed above are conducted within a work culture that is striving to emulate Christ and make him first and central. Staff should agree with the following ideas included in what it means to us to Abide in Christ (our first Global Value):
- Our Primary Identity is in Christ
