Volunteer Opportunity with Acumen Fund Fellows!

Acumen Fund Fellows Heidi Krauel and Joel Montgomery are in need of a Part-Time Research Assistant to help them complete some research on sales models at the Bottom of the Pyramid (BoP). The goal of the research is to explore the barriers and breakthroughs of sales at the BoP.

They are seeking a bright individual with an MBA or Masters (or current candidate) who is passionate about social enterprise and willing to work remotely on a project to further research in the field. A commitment of at least 10 hours/week is needed to help facilitate this research. The Research Assistant will assist the team in answering whether or not sales at the BoP are the same as sales in a developed world context, or whether specific nuances/adaptations are necessary to be successful. The Research Assistant will also help in analyzing data once we complete the online survey and in-depth interviews.

Here is a full description of the research position. Thanks!
