Careers

We offer career opportunities to people committed to more impactful innovation and productivity policies

IGL is a global policy lab dedicated to fostering productive, inclusive, and sustainable economies. We champion the use of experimental, data-driven, and evidence-based approaches to policymaking to accelerate science, innovation and productivity. To do so, we partner with policymakers, researchers, practitioners, and funders worldwide, working across the policy lifecycle to design, deliver, and evaluate impactful interventions.

IGL is a non-profit initiative hosted by Nesta, the UK Innovation Foundation, and the Barcelona School of Economics (BSE). Launched in 2014, IGL has become the global leader in this nascent field, achieved substantial policy impact across the OECD, and helped advance the experimentation agenda in this policy space. 

Our work focuses on developing and testing innovative policy ideas, building capacity for experimentation and data science, and generating robust evidence to inform decision-making. We’re not just about research; we’re about translating insights into action.
