Position Description

This position reports to the Chief Research Officer.

• Strong analytical thinking and problem-solving skills – ability to quickly identify cause-and-effect relationships, find a story in numbers, and connect primary research to broader trends in order to produce well-rounded, compelling narratives
• Strong visual storytelling skills – someone with a sharp eye for design who develops reports that always impress clients and colleagues
  • Please be prepared to show example(s) of work and/or demonstrate capabilities through a brief assignment
• Strong listening and communication skills – confident and articulate but also understands the power of inquiry and asking the right questions to seek understanding

Responsibilities

• Manage and execute internal and external research assignments that range in size, approach and complexity
• Help to proactively nurture and develop strategic client relationships
• Take a leading role in conceptualizing, designing and communicating outputs for various audiences – including proprietary client research reports, presentation decks, data-driven infographics for our website and social channels, interactive dashboards (g., Tableau), and more
• Contribute to the broader organization by establishing what “best in class” looks like for presenting data and information, helping NGF to elevate our work and content
• Proactively explore new and improved techniques for data sharing and storytelling
