Harvard Jobs – Research Manager

Website Harvard

Job Description:

The Center for Education Policy Research (CEPR) at Harvard University seeks a Senior Research Manager to oversee and further develop the analytical work of Proving Ground and the Strategic Data Project (SDP). CEPR partners with school districts, charter school networks, and state education agencies to bring high quality research methods and data analysis to bear on strategic management and policy decisions. We believe that (1) policy and management decisions directly influence the ability of schools and teachers to improve student achievement; and (2) valid and reliable data analysis significantly improves the quality of decision-making. We design our work around the theory of action that if we are able to bring together the right people, the right data, and the right analysis, then significantly better decision-making – as measured by student results – will occur.
