Can you make data tell a story?
We are looking for a new analyst who can help us get to grips with complex issues and produce clear, incisive evidence for decision makers.
Thought leadership is one of Green Alliance’s defining activities, initiating debates and bringing new perspectives to challenging environmental issues. We do this by exploring issues from original angles and presenting information in compelling and relevant formats. Our analysts conduct research and interpret data from a range of sources to inform our insights and recommendations on environmental policy.
You will work on high profile, sometimes multi-partner projects, and will mainly be focused on our natural environment theme which covers food, farming, land use and nature policy. There may also be the opportunity to work on our other themes of low carbon, resources and green economy.
Curious and inquiring, you will want to seek out and interrogate the best, most credible evidence. You will have excellent attention to detail, a rigorous approach to problem solving and accuracy, and the ability to work on several projects at once. You will have strong writing skills and be able to create copy that explains concepts to a non-scientific audience clearly and concisely. Your data analysis and synthesis skills might have been developed in another field, but you will have a deep interest in environmental issues and Green Alliance’s policy themes.
