The Empire Center is looking for a talented individual for our policy data analyst role. Working as a policy data analyst at the Empire Center provides a unique work experience at a leading state-based think tank.

The Empire Center is dedicated to making New York a better place to live and work by promoting public policy reforms grounded in free-market principles, personal responsibility, and the ideals of effective and accountable government. Through research papers, policy briefings, commentaries and conferences, the think tank seeks to educate and inform New York State policymakers, news media and the general public.

The Empire Center’s policy data analysts are paired with Empire Center researchers whose focuses include taxes, government transparency, education, energy and healthcare. Primarily, policy data analysts will work alongside researchers, providing data analysis and visualizations for projects in these areas.

A strong applicant will have experience with Tableau (or other data visualization software), Microsoft Excel, extremely strong attention to detail, and a proven record of working independently.

This role is full-time and may be performed in person at our Albany, NY office or remotely.
