Deputy Director, Research & Insights
Leads polling and mixed-method research from design through analysis, translating public opinion into actionable insights that inform policy, advocacy, communications, and organizational strategy.
AlphaGov delivers public-sector consulting for cities, counties, school systems, special districts, utilities, and related agencies. Our work spans classification and compensation, organizational and operational studies, research and program evaluation, economic and workforce analysis, surveys and community research, and applied data and infrastructure research.
We engage experienced practitioners as project-based collaborators. Engagements are remote-first with occasional client travel. When you authorize it, AlphaGov may name you as an expert collaborator or key personnel on proposals that match your expertise. We build ready teams for live pursuits - not speculative staffing banks.
AlphaGov is building a bench of survey research managers for resident, community, customer, and employee surveys for local governments, school systems, and utilities. You would design statistically sound surveys, run fieldwork, and turn results into plain-language findings for decision makers.
We confirm scope, schedule, and fee with you before any engagement begins.
