Our team, composed of former public health officials, works with state and local health departments across the country, building resilient public health operating systems.

We view our company as an urban neighborhood—a diverse group of individuals coming together to live and work, embracing the beauty in that diversity. We are a wacky bunch who are intent on spreading joy! (We just mailed out stickers to over 200 local health health professionals because we felt they could use more joy!)

Our core values are:

  • People First
  • Focus on Capacity Building

WE ARE LOOKING FOR A TEAM MEMBER WITH GOVERNMENT PUBLIC HEALTH EXPERIENCE (LOCAL/ TRIBAL/ STATE/ FEDERAL).

About Consulting at F&T Labs

If you're new to consulting, we want to help you understand what makes F&T Labs different and why our approach might be perfect for you. We know transitioning from government and non-profit to consulting can be a big step, but we've designed our work environment to blend the best of both worlds.

First, let's talk about how we work. Unlike traditional consulting firms, we hire you for a role, not a specific project. This means you can contribute to various initiatives that match your expertise and interests. Think of it as bringing your public health superpowers to different challenges where they're needed most.

We believe in measuring what matters. While many consulting firms focus on billable hours, we care about the quality and impact of your work. Time sheets don't measure your success with us – it's measured by the meaningful solutions you help create for our clients and their communities.

Yes, we have utilization targets (consulting speak for how much of your time is spent on client work), but we view these as guideposts rather than strict rules. They help us ensure we're making a sustainable impact while maintaining a healthy business. These targets are meant to motivate, not to create stress.

One of the most dynamic aspects of consulting is its natural rhythm. Some weeks might be bustling with activity, while others might be quieter. We embrace these ebbs and flows because they create space for both intense, focused work and time for learning, reflection, and personal growth. This is part of our philosophy that work and life shouldn't be at odds – they should be integrated in a sustainable and energizing way.

At our core, we're built on a simple belief: when our team members flourish, our clients flourish, and ultimately, communities thrive. That's why we've created an environment that supports your growth, values your expertise, and understands that the best solutions come from people who feel empowered and energized by their work.

If you're passionate about public health and excited about the possibility of expanding your impact through consulting, we'd love to talk with you. Your experience in public health is valuable, and we're here to help you apply it in new and meaningful ways.
