Both GiveWell and the Centre for Effective Altruism (CEA) --an Oxford-based umbrella organization consisting of Giving What We Can, 80,000 Hours, The Life You Can Save, and Effective Animal Activism-- have been discussed here before.  So I thought some folks might want to know that these organizations are recruiting for a number of positions.  Here are relevant excerpts from the official job announcements:

GiveWell: Research Analyst

Responsibilities will include creating content, managing the community, publicizing the site, and overseeing as well as undertaking further charity research.
