Tim Pearse
Behavioural science lead at the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham
Tim is currently the behavioural science lead at the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham. His brief is to make services across the council more ‘behaviourally informed’ in order to improve outcomes for residents. Priority projects include building data and behavioural science into B&D’s revenue collection services in order to deliver tailored messaging and identify vulnerable residents, as well as making the child protection process more family centric. Prior to this he set up and led the local government team at the Behavioural Insights Team. He has also held a range of policy and economics posts in the Cabinet Office and Home Office. He holds an MSc in economics from University College London.

Over the past 3+ years Pye has lead several impactful data-driven insight projects that have led to better outcomes for residents. His team’s work has been published nationally and internationally, latterly most notably by the OECD’s Observatory of Public Sector Innovation.
