Actively Interviewing
This organisation is scheduling interviews as applications come in. They're ready to hire as soon as they find the right person. Don't miss your opportunity, apply now!
Be Part of Something Meaningful
We're building an AI-powered platform that transforms how organisations prevent burnout and support employee wellbeing-and we need your expertise to get it right.
If you're an HR professional, People and Culture leader, manager, or employee who's frustrated with generic wellbeing initiatives that don't actually help, this is your chance to design something better from the ground up.
What You'll Do
Deep Dive Discussions (Monthly)
- Share your real experiences with workplace wellbeing challenges
- Critique our approach before we build the wrong thing
- Help us understand what managers actually need versus what surveys tell us they need
User Testing Sessions (Bi-weekly)
- Test early prototypes of our dashboard, intervention tools, and manager toolkits
- Tell us what feels authentic versus robotic
- Challenge our assumptions about privacy, data ethics, and implementation barriers
Shape Real Features
- Your feedback directly influences what we build
- We're not asking you to validate our ideas-we want you to tear them apart
- See your suggestions implemented in real-time as we develop the MVP
What Makes This Different
This isn't a token "advisory panel" where your input disappears into the void. You'll:
- Have direct access to our founding team
- Participate in specific feature decisions with veto power
- Receive detailed updates on how your feedback shaped development
- Get early access to the platform for your own organisation (if desired)
- Have the opportunity to transition to our formal Advisory Board as we scale
Who We're Looking For
HR/People/Culture Professionals who:
- Have battled C-suite for wellbeing budgets and know what evidence actually works
- Understand the gap between "wellbeing is a priority" and actual resource allocation
- Can speak to security, compliance, and integration barriers that kill good initiatives
Managers who:
- Have had those difficult "I think you're struggling" conversations and know what makes them go well or badly
- Want expert guidance but feel underprepared for wellbeing situations
- Can articulate what would make them consistently use a wellbeing tool versus letting it gather dust
Employees who:
- Have experienced burnout or watched colleagues struggle
- Can identify what actually helps versus performative wellbeing theatre
- Want to ensure employee privacy and agency are protected in wellbeing tech
The Bigger Picture
Our research shows:
- 75% of managers want expert guidance but feel underprepared for wellbeing conversations
- 62% want training on "recognising early signs" but 68% already identify struggling team members—so the gap isn't detection, it's intervention
- Wellbeing is flagged as "high priority" but budget allocation is often unclear or absent
We're building a system that uses predictive modeling to detect burnout risk 1-4 weeks before crisis, identifies hidden patterns in motivation data, and deploys targeted interventions at individual, manager, and organizational levels.
But here's the truth: We'll only build something valuable if people like you tell us where we're wrong.
Time Commitment Breakdown
- Monthly Deep Dive: 90-minute virtual session exploring specific challenges
- Bi-weekly User Testing: 30-45 minute sessions testing prototypes
- Asynchronous Feedback: Brief surveys and feedback forms (15 minutes)
- Optional Office Hours: Drop-in sessions with our team as needed
Total: 3-6 hours per month, flexible scheduling
What You'll Gain
- Early Platform Access: Use DMAFB in your organisation before public launch
- Advisory Board Opportunity: Transition to our formal Advisory Board with equity consideration
- Professional Development: Certificate of participation; LinkedIn recommendation
- Network Access: Connect with HR leaders and wellbeing experts across sectors
- Impact: Your expertise will shape a tool used by thousands of employees
Our Commitment to You
- We'll never waste your time with meetings that should be emails
- You can participate as much or as little as your schedule allows
- We'll share what we learn from the collective panel (anonymised insights)
- If you decide it's not for you, exit anytime with no hard feelings
About Do Me A Favour Buddy
We're a wellbeing tech startup founded on Self-Determination Theory-the science of human motivation. Our platform translates employee motivation and wellbeing data into real-time, personalized interventions that measurably impact productivity, retention, and team performance.
We're seeing 60-80% reduction in burnout-related turnover and 12-15% productivity improvements in early pilots. But we know the real test is whether busy managers will actually use this consistently, and whether employees will trust it.
That's where you come in... (cue super hero music :))
