We are currently seeking a Research Economist to join our Health Preference Assessment (HPA) team.
As a Research Economist, you will be part of a team that has a reputation for conducting high-quality preference research in a collegial working environment. The HPA Group specializes in developing surveys to elicit and quantify preferences of patients, physicians, and other health-care stakeholders for features and outcomes of medical and pharmaceutical interventions using rigorous stated-preference methods.
HPA studies apply discrete-choice experiments, threshold technique, best-worst scaling, contingent-valuation and other preference methods. HPA staff members are internationally recognized thought leaders in this research area and their work is published in high-level clinical and health-economic journals.
Responsibilities
  • Lead and manage projects and project tasks as part of a project team
  • Study and survey design and development, development of protocols and statistical analysis plans, analysis of discrete-choice and other stated-preference data, interpretation of results, and preparation of technical reports and manuscripts
  • Contribution to scientific publications
  • Proposal writing
  • Collaboration with project teams, project managers, and operational teams

Qualifications
  • PhD in a quantitative social-science field such as economics, psychometrics, operations research, or statistics with at least 2 years professional experience or a Master's level degree in one of these fields with at least at least 4 years of related professional experience, or a Bachelors level degree in one of these fields with at least at least 6 years or related professional experience.
  • Exceptional oral and written communication skills
  • Experience in leading survey-research projects or project tasks
  • Quantitative research experience
  • Demonstrated proficiency in discrete-choice analysis or other stated-preference methods
  • Proficiency in statistical software packages including STATA, Limdep/NLogit, SAS, R, MATLAB, or Stata.
  • Pharmaceutical industry or consultancy experience

The anticipated pay range for this role is $75,000.00-$105,000.00. Our pay ranges represent national averages and may vary by location as a geographic differential may be applied to some locations within the United States.
RTI considers multiple factors when making an offer including, for example: established salary range, internal budget, business needs, and education and years of work experience possessed by the applicant. Further, salary is merely one element to our offer.
At RTI, we demonstrate our commitment to rewarding individual and team achievement through a total rewards package. This package includes (among other things) a competitive base salary, a generous paid time off policy, merit based annual increases, bonus opportunities and a robust recognition program. Other benefits include a competitive range of insurance plans (including health, dental, life, and short-term and long-term disability), access to a retirement savings program such as a 401(k) plan, paid parental leave for mothers and fathers, financial assistance with adoption expenses or infertility treatments, financial reimbursement for education and developmental opportunities, an employee assistance program, and numerous other offerings to support a healthy work-life balance.
