About the Role

  • Collaborate with team leads to clarify research scope and reporting expectations
  • Maintain confidentiality and data handling standards for sensitive information
  • Summarize research findings in brief written reports when requested

Requirements

  • High school diploma or equivalent required, some college coursework preferred
  • Strong internet research skills and comfort navigating unfamiliar websites and databases
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets
  • Excellent attention to detail and accuracy under repetitive tasks
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
  • Ability to work independently and manage time in a remote setting
  • Reliable home internet connection and a distraction-free workspace
  • Basic familiarity with CRM or data management tools is a plus
  • Prior internship or part-time experience in research, data entry, or administrative work is a plus
