Full Job Description

Policy Research Associates, Inc. (PRA) is seeking a full-time Senior Research Associate I to lead and support rigorous, policy-relevant behavioral health research. The successful candidate will contribute to and expand the portfolio of behavioral health projects in the Research and Evaluation program area, which currently includes evaluations of local mental health diversion initiatives and statewide behavioral health system transformation efforts, youth mental health and juvenile justice intervention research, and pretrial risk research and evaluation.

At PRA, research is deeply connected to practice, policy, and systems transformation. Our team collaborates with community partners, state and local agencies, and people with lived experience to produce actionable research that strengthens behavioral health systems and improves outcomes for individuals and communities. The Research and Evaluation team often works with administrative data, program data, interviews, focus groups, surveys, and site-based implementation information. Candidates should be comfortable working with complex, real-world data systems; collaborating with agency and community partners; and translating findings into practical recommendations for policy and implementation. We are seeking a collaborative and intellectually curious researcher with strong methodological expertise, excellent communication skills, and a commitment to behavioral health systems transformation.

The ideal candidate will:

Bring expertise in behavioral health (mental health and substance use), with a track record of developing and managing applied research and evaluation projects.
Demonstrate success in securing funding to support research and evaluation projects.
Be able to work with imperfect real-world data, including developing data-sharing processes, analytic files, and partner-facing summaries.
Translate research findings for policy and practice audiences, as well as scholarly and community partners.

This position is remote, with occasional project travel (e.g., site visits) and travel to PRA’s offices in the Capital Region of NY (Albany/Troy) twice a year is required. The normal work week is Monday through Friday, with project meetings held during typical business hours (9 am - 5 pm ET).

Responsibilities

Research & Evaluation Leadership

Lead and manage complex research and evaluation projects from design through dissemination
Develop study designs, research questions, data collection tools, and analytic plans
Collect and analyze quantitative and qualitative data
Translate findings into actionable recommendations for policy, practice, and community audiences

Community Engagement

Collaborate with community partners to develop and implement evaluation approaches
Support community-engaged and participatory research practices

Project & Staff Management

Manage project timelines, budgets, and deliverables
Supervise, mentor, and support junior staff and research assistants, to maintain scientific rigor and ensure project success
Collaborate effectively with interdisciplinary project teams across the organization

Strategic Growth & Business Development

Lead and contribute to proposal development, including writing technical research approach sections
Identify and pursue new funding opportunities aligned with organizational priorities and strategic goals
Support partnership development and expansion of PRA’s research and evaluation portfolio

Required Qualifications

PhD in psychology, social work, public health, sociology, or related field
Expertise in behavioral health, the criminal legal system, housing and income supports, and/or youth development
Experience designing and conducting quantitative research and evaluation studies with primary data and/or secondary administrative data (e.g., behavioral health systems, courts and legal systems, Medicaid, or social service systems)
Experience translating findings into practical recommendations for state/local agencies, providers, policymakers, and community partners
Proficiency in at least one statistical programming language (e.g., R, SAS, Stata, SPSS)
Strong organizational and project management skills, with experience managing projects to completion
Attention to detail and ability to manage tasks across multiple projects and timelines
Strong interpersonal skills, including oral and written communication
Excellence in mentoring and managing junior researchers
Ability to work independently and as part of a team

Preferred Qualifications

Experience evaluating diversion, deflection, crisis response, reentry, treatment court, or related cross-system behavioral health interventions
Experience integrating qualitative and mixed method research approaches (e.g., interviews, thematic analysis, focus groups)
Experience with community-engaged and participatory research practices

Salary Range

This remote position is full-time, with a salary range of $80,000-$110,000, commensurate with experience.
