Research Consultant
Full Job Posting
Key Responsibilities
- Update the model with current internal program and cost data
- Strengthen economic and demographic inputs, including population growth, urbanisation, beneficiary cohorts, and currency and cost-of-living adjustments
- Produce updated CEA model components using the best available assumptions and the latest cost data
- Run short, prioritised deep dives into a small number of high-uncertainty, high-stakes assumptions (e.g., industry compliance costs, updated burden-of-disease data, counterfactual attribution, paint’s contribution to blood lead levels)
- Prioritise these deep dives only where uncertainty is high, material to the result, and plausibly resolvable through further research
- Address high-priority research questions on estimating the burden and prevalence of lead exposure in low- and middle-income countries
- Write a rationale for each material change, suitable for LEEP’s public CEA explainers
- Draft content for a blog post announcing the update
What We’re Looking For
Experience with cost-effectiveness analysis or similar quantitative public health or economic research
A quantitative degree (economics, public health, statistics, or a related field)
High attention to detail, and the judgement to distinguish what matters more from what matters less
Comfortable working independently with limited day-to-day oversight
Good judgement on prioritisation, with an ability to make sensible calls on where to spend limited time across competing research threads
Benefits of Working with LEEP
- A chance to have a large positive impact on the world, and improve hundreds of thousands of lives
- Experience working with an early-stage, fast growing, high-impact and evidence-based nonprofit
- Flexible work arrangements
- Supportive, collaborative team environment
