Employment Opportunities with the City & County of Honolulu’s Office of Economic Revitalization

Do you love working with data as much as we do, and want to apply that passion towards helping our community? We are excited to share that our partners at the City & County of Honolulu’s (C&CH) Office of Economic Revitalization (OER) are seeking data enthusiasts to join their team! 

As our community continues to recover from the impacts of the pandemic, OER has recognized the critical importance of data informing its strategy for building community resilience. To do so, OER is looking to add a Data Specialist and an Economic Data Strategist to their team - together, these roles will provide a much needed internal data capacity boost to spearhead OER’s efforts in developing creative, strategic ways to address gaps and innovate economic development solutions.

The challenges confronting our community require new and creative approaches to addressing long-standing issues. Building data capacity needed to bring data alongside our efforts to measure and address the challenges ahead will be critical in meeting the needs of our community. As we begin to see stakeholders in government, like OER, innovate new ways to build internal data capacity, we hope that models like this will inspire more to do the same. 

Applications for Data Specialist and Economic Data Strategist will be accepted until the positions are filled. Interested candidates are asked to send a one page cover letter, current resume, and at least three current references to oer@honolulu.gov.
