Position Summary
Appalachian Tobacco Regulatory Science Team (AppalTRuST): Field Engagement Research Coordinator
Rate Range: $26.45-$31.25
FTE%: 60%-100%
PIRE is an independent, nonprofit organization merging scientific knowledge and proven practice to create solutions that improve the health, safety and well-being of individuals, communities, and nations around the world. We have excellent health coverage, retirement opportunities and flexible work arrangements available to support our nationally recognized institution of independent scientists and research staff.
PIRE has partnered with the University of Kentucky (UK) on AppalTRuST, a project that will collect longitudinal survey data to evaluate the impact of current and future federal regulations on tobacco use and marketing in Appalachian Kentucky.
Over the next four years, the project will enroll 2,000 participants 18 and older across 8 counties: Perry, Breathitt, Knott, Leslie, Letcher, Boyd, Greenup, and Carter. PIRE and UK are making a long-term commitment to these counties by hiring project staff who live in these counties and who have familiarity with local culture, practices, and perspectives.
To help make this project successful, PIRE is looking for outgoing, personable, and highly organized individuals who will coordinate the implementation of research activities for AppalTRuST. Research activities for Field Engagement Research Coordinators include:
Ideal applicants will be very familiar with the counties in which they will engage, recruit, and retain participants, including local organizations, communities, and cultures across the county. Applicants will be expected to help recruit, engage, and help collect data from individuals of all ages across the community, and should feel comfortable engaging with adult populations (18 years old and over) who have been typically overlooked in research and those from all walks of life in a non-judgmental or stigmatizing way. Applicants should be able to think on their feet, feel comfortable asking questions as needed, take guidance, and incorporate feedback well, work well with others, manage conflict, and take initiative when required.
Applicants must be able to synthesize large amounts of information (including research protocols, data management protocols, and tobacco products) coherently, as well as have excellent verbal/written communication, organization, and presentation skills. Applicants are required to submit a cover letter, resume/CV, and writing sample.
This benefit-eligible position will be based in one of the counties listed above, and formally a part of PIRE's Kentucky Center.
Benefits Overview:
