Join the team at CPD

At the Centre for Policy Development, we believe our team is our key asset and we are committed to recruiting and retaining talented and committed individuals. 

There are currently no vacancies.

Our Culture:

We build constructive, respectful working relationships — internally and externally — and we take equity and inclusion seriously. We are committed to listening, learning and growing.

We recognise the best solutions are developed when diverse voices contribute, so we try hard to integrate all perspectives into our work — especially those of people with lived experience of the issues we are trying to address.

CPD Internships

Internships are available on a case-by-case basis depending on research project needs. CPD only accepts internships that are part of an accredited program of study, and we are committed to ensuring mutual benefit and genuine professional development through the internship process.

All general applications should be addressed to ‘Centre for Policy Development’ and sent via email to [email protected]. The subject line must be ‘Internship Application for CPD’.

Please attach a CV and cover letter. The cover letter must include a comment (one or two paragraphs) on a CPD research paper and a policy issue the applicant is passionate about. Applications that do not meet these criteria will not be considered.
