    • Writing clear, succinct summaries of large amounts of data

    • Drafting deliverables, including PowerPoint presentations, Excel spreadsheets, and other formats, to communicate findings to clients

    • Managing research for multiple client accounts and internal initiatives; taking responsibility for the timely delivery of all work

    • Collaborating with team members to develop research methodologies 

    • Contributing to product development by crafting new and innovative approaches to producing the analytic work, optimizing operations, and perfecting the research product

    Qualifications of the ideal candidate:

    • An excellent academic record; bachelor's degree from an accredited college or university

    • Up to 2 years of post-undergraduate experience in politics, research, consulting, or another relevant professional setting

    • Experience in qualitative research required; experience in a detail-oriented role, such as copyediting, preferred

    • Strong research skills and an unflagging commitment to objective, thorough work

    • Excellent writing skills; ability to distill large amounts of information into concise summaries and analytic conclusions

    • Adaptability; able to quickly adjust to evolving timelines and priorities, ready to learn new systems and adapt research and writing to product-specific guidelines

    • Outstanding time management and judgment; demonstrated proficiency managing competing project priorities and adhering to timelines

    • Proficient in Microsoft PowerPoint 

    • Demonstrated interest in public policy and politics and outstanding client-service ethic

    • Entrepreneurial spirit; track record of helping to build new initiatives from conception to execution

    Employment Type: Full-time

    Compensation: The salary range for this role is $48,000-$52,000

    Location: This job is based in Washington, DC. Gravity Research operates on a hybrid schedule, with employees required to be in the office every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. 


    About Us

    Across Gravity Research, generally, the firm looks for three “pillar gifts” in you, and everyone else.  In all of us, these are more aspirational than actual, but they are central in our intentions –

    • Force of Ideas: At the center of Gravity Research’s work are the ideas within our work. We believe that ideas—the good and not—have consequences. Our ultimate objective is to bring rigor, insight, and intellectual honesty to the goal of separating the bad from the good, and giving voice, argument, and flight to maintaining the latter.

    • Spirit of Generosity:  Gravity Research seeks in its ranks a spirit of generosity: a natural disposition in each colleague toward service and selfless conduct. Our writing should be cut from the same cloth—critical on the merits, but informed by charity and forbearance in measuring motive and personal character.

    • Radical Responsibility: We give our people a lot of responsibility early on, and our top performers embrace it. We believe in holding ourselves and our colleagues accountable, taking ownership over big things, striving for excellence, and celebrating success.

    Gravity Research is an Equal Opportunity Employer. We do not discriminate against our applicants because of race, color, religion, sex (including gender identity, sexual orientation, and pregnancy), national origin, age, disability, veteran status, genetic information, or any other status protected by applicable law.
