Conducting phone calls and meetings with repeat donors to update them on new research. Implementing feedback received from outreach work to improve GiveWell; for example, noticing common questions or misconceptions about GiveWell and working to clarify that information on our website, or learning of new giving opportunities and sharing them with the research team. Pitching and writing blog posts describing GiveWell's research and values (examples here and here). Representing GiveWell at events, giving talks, and conducting Q&A sessions. Conducting media interviews about GiveWell. Networking on behalf of GiveWell. Analyzing data to inform donor relations strategy and plans. Other research or outreach projects. Research Analysts, Outreach Focus should have a strong interest in following the details of GiveWell's work on an ongoing basis and understanding the organization's processes and plans, and should be excited to engage with individuals interested in GiveWell's research.
