Grow your career at CitizenLab

We strive to build a strong, connected team of change makers who share the goal of revolutionizing community engagement. You’ll find yourself working in a kind environment surrounded by others who excel at moving our democracies towards the next big frontier.

We’re on a mission to make local governments more inclusive, participatory, and responsive - and we know that mission begins with us. We are fully committed to being a workplace that values diverse backgrounds and perspectives, provides equitable opportunities, and builds an inclusive culture of belonging.

We believe that profit serves purpose.

We are  driven by growth and impact. We take our impact goals seriously, and strive to create truly participatory democracies through our work.

We think bold and move at the speed of light.

To solve the complex challenge of digital democracy, we must dare to think beyond what is expected. We know our success relies on how fast we can adapt and that means challenging ourselves to try new things.

We favor autonomy and take ownership.

We don't rely on heavy bureaucracy. Instead, we have a three-word policy: use good judgement. We give continous insight into where we are going, not micro-directions on how to get there.

We are vulnerable and generate trust through transparency.

We also know that transparency is about being open, not about making decisions by consensus. Everybody has a voice, but not everybody always has a vote. We are raw, open, vulnerable, no-bullshit, and get straight to the point.
