Job description
From AlphaX’s job post, as they wrote it.
WIL is seeking a Policy Advisor in workforce development to analyze state and regional education-to-workforce policy and recommend practical reforms.
About the Workforce Intelligence Lab (WIL)
The Workforce Intelligence Lab (WIL) is an applied workforce research initiative. WIL builds methodology-transparent workforce intelligence, including labor demand signals, occupational and credential pathways, and training-to-employment outcome measures, and works with education, employer, research, and community partners to turn that evidence into grant and sponsored-project collaborations.

Opportunity type: this is a contingent proposal opportunity in WIL's expert collaborator network, not a funded vacancy. It supports a competitive grant application WIL is preparing; no award has been made, and there is no guaranteed work or funding. If an award proceeds and the staffing model calls for it, WIL may offer a project-based contract or consulting engagement. We will ask before naming you or including your resume in any proposal.
What you'll do
* Analyze state and regional education-to-workforce policy
* Identify policy levers such as credential attainment, workforce funding, and career pathways, and recommend reform options
* Engage state agencies, workforce boards, employers, and policy organizations
* Translate research and data into policy briefs, memos, and recommendations
* Advise on policy-change strategy and outcome measures for the proposal
* Contribute qualifications and past-performance narrative to WIL proposals when you authorize naming
Apply to be considered.
Requirements
Required
* Experience in education or workforce policy analysis, advocacy, or advising at the state or regional level
* Working knowledge of state workforce and education policy landscapes
* Track record of policy briefs, reports, or testimony
* Relationships with state agencies, workforce boards, or policy organizations
* Comfortable as a project-based contract collaborator; remote US
Nice to have
* Economic mobility or equity-focused research experience
* Experience on philanthropically funded policy projects
* Higher education or community college policy experience
