The Climate Jobs Institute, housed in the School of Labor and Employment Relations at the University of Illinois, is seeking to hire up to 4 Research Specialists. We are looking for a Senior Research Specialist and up to three Research Specialists. Research specialists will conduct research at the intersection of climate change, job creation, and economic development.

CJI was established by the Illinois General Assembly in 2022 to support Illinois with its clean energy transition through applied research related to workforce needs and economic development. We plan to work closely with state agencies and other partners to build our research agenda. Our goal is to conduct research that influences policy, evaluates what is and isn’t working, and recommends strategies to improve the implementation of state policy and workforce development programs (among other things).
