Melbourne, Victoria, Australia beBeeDemographic Full time $80,000 - $150,000

Demographic forecasting is a complex and dynamic field that requires expertise in various areas.

Required Skills:
  • Strong background in demography, population studies, or related fields
  • Proven experience with demographic or population forecasting methods (traditional and/or novel approaches)
  • Solid analysis skills - statistical modelling, time-series analysis, spatial data, or microsimulation
  • Comfortable working with large, messy, and multi-source datasets (e.g., census, surveys, administrative data)
  • Ability to self-service data needs - comfortable writing queries in SQL and doing analysis in Python
  • Able to communicate complex findings clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences
Job Description:

As a demographer, you will be responsible for building, testing, and refining our prototype demographic forecasting models. This will involve pairing with engineers to write up new population forecasting models features into production systems, hunting down and debugging edge cases, exploring new datasets and methods to improve population predictions, and writing clear, data-backed explanations of model outputs for stakeholders.

Benefits:

Our ideal candidate will have a strong understanding of demographic trends, population data, and the ability to work with large datasets. You will have the opportunity to work on a variety of projects, from building predictive models to developing new techniques for small-area or high-resolution forecasts. We are looking for someone who is creative, curious, and willing to experiment with new approaches and challenge assumptions.
