# Field Strategy Specialist Produce strategies that shape what gets built to protect humanity.We're a nonprofit startup building the workforce that protects humanity. Since 2022, we've trained over 6,000 people in AI safety and biosecurity. Our alumni work at Anthropic, DeepMind, the UK AI Safety Institute, and dozens of other organisations shaping how transformative technologies affect the world.We're a small team based in London, expanding to San Francisco in 2026. We raised $25M in 2025.This year, we're launching an incubator to help entrepreneurs found new projects and ventures. Your field strategy documents would steer that incubator. Why this role matters Many important problems in AI safety and biosecurity are bottlenecked by a lack of strategic clarity. We have a vague intuition that something in X domain matters, but it's unclear what success looks like, what the bottlenecks are, whether we're on track, and what entrepreneurial people should go and build.As the world wakes up to the dangers posed by powerful AI, billions of dollars will flow into these fields. There are nowhere near enough well-scoped projects or teams ready to turn that capital into risk reduction.Your job is to figure out what should exist, why it doesn't exist yet, and make it legible enough that it can get built. You'll rapidly get to the frontier of a new field, talk to all the people who actually know things, form sharp views on what matters, and produce documents that are clear enough to shape what founders build and what funders back.We've developed a for how to do this, and we need you to run it. What you'll do Rapidly get to the frontier of a specific domain Read the best existing material on a problem area and orient fast. Build a map of the field: who's working on what, what's been tried, where the key disagreements are. Find the people with the most important tacit knowledge. Many of the juiciest insights live in people's heads, not on the public web. Talk to the people who actually know things Conduct 50 interviews in 50 days. You'll connect with people via cold outreach and warm introductions. Build trust quickly so people are willing to share non-public information with you. Ask sharp questions to extract non-obvious insights. Identify where experts agree, where they disagree, and why. Maintain a living document of critical unknowns: scientific uncertainties, technical feasibility questions, and cost estimates nobody has pinned down. Write briefs clear enough that researchers can pick them up and run. Produce strategy that shapes what gets built Identify the concrete projects an entrepreneur could build and scale, then communicate them to founders, funders and the broader field so people start moving quickly in the right direction. Entrepreneurs will stress-test your strategies against reality, and you'll iterate and update the strategy with them.A strong first six months looks like producing 3 field strategy docs that inform which ventures we help launch or how a funder deploys millions of dollars.You'll report to , and you'll work in a small team with other field strategists. Example projects You might work on questions like:Over time, we expect this role to shape not just individual interventions, but our broader view of which domains BlueDot should prioritize. About you We're especially excited about smart generalists . You do not need prior domain expertise in biosecurity, technical AI safety or policy to be a great fit.You might be a great fit if you: Learn extremely fast. You can become one of the most informed people in a narrow area within weeks. You read fast and synthesise conflicting views into a coherent take. Get spicy information out of people. You build trust fast, ask questions that get people excited, and become someone that experts want to introduce to people they admire. Think like a strategist, not a researcher. You care about what should actually get built. You notice when prevailing views don't add up due to groupthink, conflicts of interest, or untested assumptions, and you're willing to argue that intervention X matters more than Y with evidence and reasoning. But you change your mind fast when better evidence or arguments show up. Write clearly. Your strategy docs are sharp enough that a founder reads them and gains conviction, or a funder reads them and changes how they deploy capital. You don't waffle. Are entrepreneurial. You don't wait for permission. You're ambitious about what should exist in the world and you can't wait to make it happen.You might be a founder or former founder, a policy or operator generalist, a researcher who's dying to leave academia, or a PM / chief of staff with unusually good judgment.We encourage speculative applications - most strong candidates won't meet all these criteria! What we offer High-leverage work: Your output will directly shape new ventures, programs, and how millions of dollars gets deployed. Rapid learning: This role is designed for people who want to get to the frontier of important domains quickly. You'll talk to the best people in the field within your first few days. San Francisco preferred: We'd love you to work in-person with the team in SF, with flexibility for exceptional candidates. US visa sponsorship available. Freedom and autonomy: Our expense policy is "act in BlueDot's best interest", unlimited PTO, minimal bureaucracy.

ROYAL BOTANIC GARDENS/KEW GARDENS
Richmond, Surrey
This is an exciting opportunity to join the Science Operations team at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, one of the world's most iconic scientific and horticultural institutions. As the Senior Technician (Purchasing), you will play a vital role in keeping Kew's research running smoothly - managing the purchasing of consumables & equipment and ensuring scientists and researchers have what they need to do their work. Based at Kew, this is a varied and hands-on role at the heart of a world-leading plant and fungal science programme. We are looking for an organised and efficient individual with a background in a relevant technical or scientific role, and a genuine commitment to working within a team. You will have a keen eye for detail and a methodical approach to record-keeping, and the ability to apply your skills practically in a busy research environment. Experience of purchasing, invoicing, or maintaining financial records would be an advantage, as this will be part of the day-to-day duties of the role. Following a recent restructuring, purchasing across the Research Infrastructure team has been centralised, and this role offers real scope to help shape how the team works going forward. We need someone who can think creatively about problems and build practical solutions - whether that is designing forms to capture ordering information, developing tracking spreadsheets, or finding smarter ways to consolidate expenditure. You will be a confident communicator, able to work closely with laboratory staff, finance and procurement colleagues, and visiting researchers. The ability to manage competing priorities and to pick up new systems quickly are both essential. Experience of supporting less experienced colleagues, and an interest in plant or fungal research, would be a bonus. Interviews are due to take place w/c 22 June. About Us The Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew (RBG Kew) is a leading plant science institute, UNESCO World Heritage Site, and major visitor attraction. Our mission is to understand and protect plants and fungi for the well-being of people and the future of all life on Earth. We are working to end the unprecedented extinction crisis and to help create a world where nature is protected, valued by all and managed sustainably. We will achieve these goals by drawing on our leading scientific research, unrivalled collections of plants and fungi, global network of partners, inspirational gardens at Kew and Wakehurst, and our 260 years of history. Join us on our journey as protectors of the world's plants and fungi. Our fantastic benefits package includes opportunities for continuous learning, a generous annual leave entitlement, flexible working to help you maintain a healthy work-life balance, an Employee Assistance Programme and other wellbeing support such as cycle to work scheme and discounted gym membership. We also offer a competitive pension, an employee discount scheme and free entry into a wide range of national museums and galleries, as well as access to our own beautiful gardens at Kew and Wakehurst. We are dedicated to equality of opportunity and welcome applications from all sections of the community.
