POSITION: Quantitative Analyst for Social Justice Research, Evaluation and Strategy

ORGANIZATION: Strength in Numbers

Job Description

Strength in Numbers Consulting Group seeks a Quantitative Analyst to conduct data cleaning and data analysis, advise clients on database development and oversee implementation of databases (including staff training and documentation). Strong preference for programmer who has intermediate fluency or above in R and/or Stata.

Opportunity Statement

People of color, researchers with nontraditional backgrounds, immigrants, people with disabilities, people with diverse gender identities and expressions, people of all ages and others from marginalized groups are strongly encouraged to apply. We are very serious about hiring people who come from the communities we serve.

Who We Are

Strength in Numbers is a women-owned, LGBTQ-led research and evaluation firm. We have three main strands of work: quantitative research and evaluation, qualitative research and evaluation and philanthropic strategy. The quantitative team also does systems building and capacity building/technical assistance, including advising on the creation, implementation and maintenance of effective monitoring and evaluation systems; this often includes selection and implementation of new databases. This position will report to the Principal Consultant who leads on quantitative work (Somjen Frazer).

We do community-based evaluation projects, research projects and philanthropic strategy in a fast-paced environment, with each consultant managing a portfolio of multiple projects of varying sizes. Our practice includes collaborations with a wide variety of marginalized groups, particularly those with intersecting experiences of oppression (e.g. low income youth of color, young children and ethnic minorities in the developing world, transgender women engaged in sex work). Over half of the projects we undertake are focused on LGBTQ+ communities. Our philosophy centers consultation with the marginalized groups affected by the social issues and social programs we research and evaluate. Community members have substantive input into our approach to projects, including helping to build research questions, selecting methods and interpreting data. Our quantitative work is rigorous and we are meticulous in assuring that our findings are accurate prior to release. We are a small firm, and all consultants contribute to the running of the company and doing some administrative tasks. While this position would be primarily quantitative, Strength in Numbers also has members focused on qualitative methods and many of our projects involve multi-method research.

We are a diverse, collegial community. We are based in New York City and are open to remote work, with a slight preference for those who live or would be willing to relocate to within a short travel distance from New York (e.g. Washington DC, Philadelphia, Vermont). However, we can be flexible for the right candidate. There is a 90 day probationary period; however, benefits (including health insurance) begin on the first day of employment.
