Responsibilities and Tasks

This is the job for you if you are socially interested and driven by analyzing large data sets to find important conclusions to counteract welfare fraud.

The Payment Authority has a unique collection of tasks that currently includes registry data from paying authorities as well as other registers from, for example, the Companies Registration Office, the Land Survey Authority, and the Enforcement Authority. Soon, the Payment Authority will begin connecting municipalities, which means that the data collection will include registry data on municipal payments. We use Python, SQL, and Stata to analyze data.

• At least two years of relevant experience in qualified investigative and analytical work
• At least two years of relevant experience working with quantitative methods for data collection and analysis
• Experience in conducting environmental monitoring
• Experience collaborating with various stakeholders
