Further, we are seeking like-minded professionals who are curious, creative and committed to leveraging their knowledge and skills for the greater good.

• Participation in team meetings
• Data analysis and visualization
• Process development and documentation

What are the expectations/logistics? 
The positions will span approximately 12 weeks, with expected start dates between April 1-May 31st. While we prefer 40-hour weeks, we may consider alternate work hours. The positions are remote, preferably in North American or United Kingdom time zones. Occasional trips to the nearest ERM office (Raleigh NC or other) may be required.
