Roles with leverage, here in the Netherlands9 roles
This tier is about leverage. Most of these employers — ministries, regulators, universities, banks — would not say they work on one of the world’s largest problems, and nobody has vetted them as a whole. What we look for is different: roles that let you point more at the problem than your own hours. That might be money, or rules that bind a whole sector, or the work of dozens of other people, or an idea that is free to copy afterwards. A credit analyst at an agricultural lender can matter more than a programme officer at a charity. That judgement is ours, made role by role, and we always write down the reason. Competition here is usually a good deal lighter.
