Nexus Market Research: Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Program


NMR is a small but expanding consulting firm specializing in
evaluation and marketing research related to energy efficiency and
renewable energy.  Energy efficiency and renewables are burgeoning
fields providing excellent career opportunities for social scientists.

NMR currently seeks to hire individuals possessing the knowledge,
skills, and abilities typically gained through graduate education or
prior work in policy, economics, sociology, or other social science
programs.  These include, but are not limited to, the following:
* Designing, implementing, and analyzing survey data
* Conducting semi-structured interviews
* Performing descriptive quantitative analyses using SPSS or similar
data analysis packages
* Developing and applying multiple regression or similar models,
preferably in an applied setting, although only classroom experience
is acceptable
* Writing clear and concise research summaries, memoranda, and reports

We prefer candidates with experience addressing environmental or
energy-related concerns, and also candidates who understand the
principles and practices of program evaluation.

The ideal candidate has recently completed or will soon complete a
Ph.D. in policy, economics, sociology, or another social science
field.  We will also consider candidates with Master's degrees who
have relevant work experience.  At this point in time, we do not
have openings for those at the Bachelor's level, unless they have
considerable work experience in the field of energy efficiency or renewables.

NMR is committed to the environment and to emitting minimal
greenhouse gases.  Our carbon footprint is less than 10% of that of
an average, similarly sized office-based business in the Northeast
United States.  We offer a flexible work schedule and competitive benefits.
