Love Justice International (LJI) combats human trafficking through transit monitoring—intercepting potential victims at key transportation hubs, where traffickers and victims are most visible. Because trafficking is already underway at these points, our teams can gather vital information to assist law enforcement in arresting traffickers and disrupting trafficking networks. To date, LJI has intercepted over 84,000 individuals, resulting in more than 1,700 arrests. For more information on our impact, visit our website: lovejustice.ngo. LJI prioritizes a rigorous, data-driven approach to maximize impact and minimize harm. We use careful data collection and analysis to measure our effectiveness, continually refining and improving our anti-trafficking interventions. Adhering to the principle of "fail fast and often," we test innovative ideas quickly, discard what doesn't work, and scale interventions proven to produce the greatest measurable good per dollar spent. This disciplined, iterative approach helps us remain accountable to our mission, ensuring that every action we take truly benefits those we serve. LJI's anti-human trafficking strategy and its orphan care work depends greatly on finding the right people in the places we operate. Given this, we’ve made it our mission to specialize in finding the right people. In fact, our core competency is searching out the people, places, and tools to maximize mission impact. To do this, we’ve developed (and have ideas to develop) a number of human assessments using predictive modeling, including: Mindset, Work Beliefs, and Moral Reasoning assessments used for hiring LJI Staff Specific assessments for national office staff, teachers, parents, monitors, and fundraisers Our goal is to form a team that is constantly working to improve our assessments and particularly to make them more predictive. We use assessments within our application and hiring process for LJI and we’d like to apply some of the lessons we’ve learned there (in selecting the right people) to more of our program work. For example, an assessment to help us select the best transit monitors to intercept potential victims of trafficking or an assessment to select the best parents for one of our Family Homes caring for orphaned and abandoned children. The Human Assessment Specialist will report to the CEO. The position would ideally be based in South Africa, however, it’s also possible for it to be remote.
