The candidate will help in the copy-editing process, fact-checking, and support the design and production of the report, working with external designers.
- Op-eds and articles: From time to time, based on the research, media either proactively contact the faculty members to comment on articles or give quotes.

- Newsletter: The Project distributes a bi-weekly newsletter to a list of subscribers. The newsletter contains the latest podcasts, a section called Spotlight that curates research on different topics each week, a listing of interesting new research from HBS and outside of HBS sources on topics related to managing the future of work. The candidate will assist the Editor in publishing the newsletter, contribute to spotlight development and most importantly, build the subscriber base of the newsletter.
- Website: The candidate will be responsible for maintaining, updating and refreshing the website, as well as looking for new and exciting ways to showcase the research. The Project, from time to time, develops video content and would like to develop more video and interactive content. The right candidate will help in doing that and ensuring the website does an effective job in showcasing the research and making the findings and recommendations accessible to visitors in a way that enhances the usage of the research.
- Social media: The Project requires a strong social media presence. The candidate will be responsible for crafting and executing a social media strategy that aligns with the Project's research.

The more the research reaches the target audience of business leaders and policy leaders, the more the Project succeeds in sharing best practices and influence change.
Under the general direction of Professors Joe Fuller and Bill Kerr, the RA will assist with the design, production, development, promotion and dissemination of various research products such as reports, podcast, website, and newsletter.
Primary Duties:
building strong media relationships in top-tier publications, radio and TV to promote the research, developing a press release, developing a research dissemination strategy involving partner organizations; developing outreach partnerships with key players in the topic area.
