About The Opportunity

As our specialist, you will support all our research practices : executing participant recruitment, informed consent, screening, scheduling, and incentives. This role requires creative problem solving and strategic judgment to ethically recruit participants across the student journey—from early childhood to post-secondary education. You will help shape what excellent research operations look like in a mission-driven, experimental context, contributing to the broader culture of evidence-informed design.

Apart from direct support to teams, this role includes laying the groundwork for building scalable, inclusive, collaborative, and ethical research across Greenhouse\'s diverse innovation portfolio.

  • Conduct initial screening conversations to ensure individuals are appropriately prepared, informed, and confident in participating in innovative research methods
  • Support and Advise Researchers
  • Act as a thought partner to user researchers and service designers, providing guidance on recruitment, logistics, study design, and resource planning
  • Develop and implement inclusive recruitment strategies, especially for underrepresented populations and beyond traditional pathways
  • Advise on recruitment and research practices that balance student privacy and allow for longer-term engagement with communities
  • Streamline and Standardize Research Ops
  • Identify and implement lightweight, scalable processes that support inclusive, ethical, collaborative, and innovative research across Greenhouse teams.
  • Identify gaps or friction in existing research workflows and recommend improvements
  • Establish toolkits, templates, and repeatable processes for recruitment, planning, and data handling
  • Advise on and implement privacy, consent, and data protection procedures aligned with legal standards (e.g., FERPA)
  • Client the Groundwork for Long-Term Research Infrastructure
  • Evaluate research tools and vendor platforms (e.g., scheduling, transcription, incentives) and recommend fit-for-purpose solutions
  • Recommend and document sustainable practices that support equitable research at scale
  • Co-design an early iteration of a research repository with Greenhouse designers, including recommended tooling and strategies for scaling and improving
  • About You

  • 5 years of experience in research operations, UX research, or related program management roles
  • Experience in research enablement — creating documentation, templates, and leading internal workshops around best practices
  • Established experience across the research lifecycle, which includes recruiting participants, managing a participant panel, and training teams on how to match participants to studies
  • Experience supporting qualitative and quantitative research methods across multiple teams with distinct products and user needs

  • Curiosity and enthusiasm for emerging technologies, with a willingness to experiment with and adopt new AI-driven solutions and comfort with learning and applying new digital tools independently and proactively.
  • Clear and concise communication skills, written and verbal
  • A learner\'s mindset and a commitment to growth : welcoming diverse perspectives, giving and receiving timely, respectful feedback, and continuously improving through iterative learning and user input.
  • A drive for impact and excellence : solving complex problems, making data-informed decisions, prioritizing what matters most, and continuously improving through learning, user input, and external benchmarking.
