Greetings,
                Please post the ad below to Polmeth.  We are seeking my replacement.  It is, and has been, a great spot for an untenured social scientist.
                Thanks,

Director, Empirical Research Group   (Req. 23141)

The Empirical Research Group was created in 1998 with the purpose to enhance the ability of UCLA law faculty to undertake and evaluate empirical research. ERG has become a model imitated to some degree by half-a-dozen other first-tier law schools around the United States.

The Director will continue and advance this empirical work at the law school. A strong candidate will have a PhD or equivalent in a field that emphasizes strong empirical research skills (e.g., economics, political science, policy, statistics, finance, or sociology). Candidates must be facile with current statistics, data analysis, and survey methods (e.g., regression, re-sampling, covariate balancing, etc.) and have experience using relevant statistical software (e.g., Stata, SAS, SPSS, and/or R). Computer programming ability sufficient to work with large data sets and to create stimulus materials for computer-based social science experiments is preferred.

A track record of producing scholarship, professional projects, and/or policy analysis that that crosses disciplinary boundaries is also a plus. Strong analytical skills and interpersonal skills are required.

Target salary range is between $75,000 and $90,000 depending on the candidate's qualifications and experience.
