01 / THE ROLE

Help turn ambitious ideas into functioning programmes.

Selected fellows contribute directly to the work required to run a growing AI safety organisation. Assignments may involve research programmes, university engagement, policy convenings, institutional relationships and the internal systems that hold this work together.

Assignments will depend on each fellow’s experience, availability and Project AWARE’s current priorities. Individual fellows will not necessarily work across every area.
