Are you looking for an opportunity to use your skills to make a significant contribution to the knowledge base about transgender people? NCTE currently has two different positions open for the US Trans Survey, a Project Manager and an Outreach Coordinator. Please be sure that you are applying for the position(s) that you are interested in.
The National Center for Transgender Equality is hiring a full-time Project Manager to coordinate the preparation and fielding the U.S. Transgender Survey (USTS) in 2021, which will update and build on the 2015 USTS. The position is expected to last approximately one year, through the completion of the field period (in summer or fall of 2021) and may extend into 2022 (to include the reporting/writing period). The Project Manager will coordinate this complex endeavor, ensuring that stakeholders’ input is received by the research team, scientific decisions are made with all needed input, outreach materials are designed and produced, the survey website is updated, and that the survey is properly hosted online. They will work with a full-time Outreach Coordinator, several scientific and community experts, a range of consultants (such as the survey hosting vendor), as well as the research team to get the survey into the field. This position is designed to be remote.
The ideal candidate brings strong interpersonal skills to interact with the over 100 people who will be providing input on this project. We seek a detail-oriented project manager and people person, who enjoys speaking with others by phone and Zoom. Previous experience with survey research is a plus, but not required.
This is an incredible opportunity to help increase understanding of transgender people, including those who are non-binary. The survey research team has already begun designing the survey, which will be online and will be again offered in English and Spanish.
