Responsibilities

  • Build and maintain relationships with research vendors and agency partners — including new vendor procurement, privacy & legal onboarding, SOW/PO management, budgeting, renewals, staying on top of new offerings, and managing internal employee access.

  • Maintain a research archive of past research, and build new ways of sharing research across Robinhood team members.
  • Track and manage research operational items (e.g. NDAs, gift cards, facilities requests), highlight timely issues that researchers face and take quick action to resolve them, and find and implement new ways to improve the effectiveness and development of the research team (e.g., conferences, speakers, training, new tools, etc.).
