Job Description
We are looking for: Applicants with a PhD-level qualification, or in exceptional cases a Masters with substantial and evidence of progress towards attaining a PhD. A candidate with significant survey and data management expertise, able to comfortably manage the complexities of large-scale in-household social surveys. Note that GCRO contracts out QoL fieldwork to external fieldwork service providers, so day-to-day direct management of fieldworkers is not required. But clear expertise with survey design; questionnaire development; sampling and weighting; fieldwork contracting, direction and contract management; quality control; data preparation; and technical documentation of survey processes is essential. A candidate with significant quantitative data analysis and results presentation . High level statistical analysis skills would be an . An applicant who can continue to consolidate and develop QoL related survey and data management systems, processes and practices within GCRO. An applicant who can, increasingly over time, provide research leadership on quality of life and multi-dimensional well-being as a cross-disciplinary field of applied and academic research, as well as an arena of policy engagement with government. While QoL data is used across the organisation, research leadership is required to grow the data analysis and presentations skills of more junior researchers, to build international collaborations in the field of quality of life studies, and to innovate new modes by which QoL data can be transmitted to and used by government stakeholders.
