Position: Community Research Training Consultant

We are looking for a Jackson, Mississippi-based qualitative researcher to train and supervise non-academics to conduct in-person interviews with families who have participated in a guaranteed income program. Our methodology centers program alumni as best situated to collect rich data and stories about participants’ experience with the program, and we need a person who is enthusiastic and experienced in this approach. The individual in the role will also manage data (assuring quality, completeness, security) and logistics (scheduling trainings, interviews, and conducting follow ups to ensure high response rates and participant satisfaction).

Our ideal candidate has a Masters or PhD in Social Science and 2-5 years of experience in Participatory Action Research or community-based research with a focus on qualitative methods and analysis. This is a nine to twelve month engagement starting in November 2021
