Careers

At The Remedy Project, we're always on the lookout for talented individuals who share our passion for delivering exceptional results for our clients. 

We work with the private sector on a range of business and human rights-related issues, focusing on human rights due diligence, operational grievance mechanisms, and remediation. We also collaborate closely with governments, civil society, and UN agencies on policy, research, and capacity-building programs to counter exploitation in global supply chains. 

Our vision is for a future where all workers in global supply chains are respected, protected, and have the remedies provided to them in a fair and transparent manner. To make this a reality, we need exceptional people who can think big while also being willing to dive into the nitty-gritty. 

While we may not have open roles posted at all times, we welcome the opportunity to review CVs and get to know prospective candidates. If you believe you have the skills and experience to contribute to our team, please submit your CV and cover letter to carmel@remedyproject.co. We'll keep it on file and reach out if a suitable opportunity arises in the future.
