Policy Integrity is a non-partisan think tank dedicated to improving the quality of government decisionmaking. We work to identify and support economically sound policies related to energy, the environment, and public health.
The Energy Economist or Senior Economist will collaborate with Policy Integrity’s legal and economic researchers to prepare policy reports, comments in regulatory proceedings, and journal articles on a variety of issues including energy and climate policy, wholesale electricity market design, and retail electricity policies.

The salary range is $125,000 - $135,000 for the economist position, and $146,000 - $170,000 for the senior economist position, and benefits are generous.
