Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
The role involves applying social science and policy research methodologies to support climate change adaptation projects and engagement objectives. Responsibilities include project management, stakeholder collaboration with government and community partners, and contributing to grant proposals.
A bachelor's degree in public policy, sociology, economics, or a related field and at least 2 years of experience in public policy or research are required. Candidates should demonstrate familiarity with applying social science methods to policy issues, particularly regarding climate change impacts.
About this Opportunity
Reporting to one of CIG’s Principal Investigators, the Research Scientist 2 – Social Scientist is responsible for expanding the CIG's social science, policy, and governance capabilities. We are seeking a candidate with a social science or policy background and project management experience who can add breadth to the work we do and support CIG’s senior researchers on climate change adaptation projects with our federal, tribal, state, and local partners. While educational attainment is valued, we also encourage applications from practitioners who have worked in government, non-profits, and consulting who can bring a practical social science orientation to the CIG team.
This is a full-time research position with no teaching expectations and no path to university tenure. This position is primarily intended to serve applied research, which may come at the expense of opportunities to pursue published research.
This is a hybrid position with an expectation to work on-site at the UW Seattle campus at least two days per week; the remaining days may be worked remotely, with supervisor approval. Our in-office days are currently Monday and Wednesday.
Key Responsibilities
Independent Research and Research Support [55%]
