About Us : Love Justice International (LJI) is a Christian nonprofit organization and our mission is sharing the love of Jesus Christ by fighting the world’s greatest injustices. We do this in two primary ways: through our expanding anti-human trafficking work and by caring for orphaned and abandoned children. We are seeking faithful, compassionate, thoughtful problem-solvers who are able to think deeply and carefully about how we can share Christ’s love by fighting injustice. You can make more money elsewhere, and probably find better ways to live an easier, more comfortable life. We see this work as more than just a job, but as a calling to that mission.

Program and Position Overview : At Love Justice International we strive to find and implement the strategies that result in the greatest impact against injustice. We believe that the question of how to create the greatest impact against the greatest injustices is incredibly complex, and warrants an excellence of thought and practice that is rarely brought to bear in our field. We also believe that impact that is not carefully defined and accurately measured is worth very little, that there is much potential to do harm in fighting against injustice, and that our own tendencies will always be to have a biased view of our own work and impact. These ideas are reflected in some of our values, such as “Do No Harm,” and “Admit Your Weaknesses.” Nothing on earth has been more effective than science at discovering the truths that can impact the world, and it’s not even close. Therefore we feel compelled to bring a scientific approach to our work, as reflected in our value “Be Scientific.” Love Justice Labs is where we record and track the evolution of what we believe are our highest potential yet-untested impact ideas. It is designed to be the forge that burns away the ideas or parts of ideas that cannot stand scrutiny, and helps the ones that can be born into and make impact in the real world. The Science Officer / Social Scientist will strive to bring a scientific approach to the defining and measuring of impact in our program work, and Love Justice Labs. He / she will report to the CEO. The position will ideally be based in the North Coast of KZN, South Africa, although remote work may be considered.
