About this role

AlphaGov (Casa Moon LLC d/b/a AlphaGov) delivers public-sector consulting for cities, counties, school systems, special districts, utilities, and related agencies. Our work spans classification and compensation, organizational and operational studies, research and program evaluation, economic and workforce analysis, surveys and community research, and applied data and infrastructure research.

We engage experienced practitioners as project-based collaborators. Engagements are remote-first with occasional client travel. When you authorize it, AlphaGov may name you as an expert collaborator or key personnel on proposals that match your expertise. We build ready teams for live pursuits — not speculative staffing banks.

This opportunity is contingent upon contract award and final staffing approval. Permission will be requested before including a candidate's name or resume in a proposal.

  • Analyze visitor volume, spending, markets, travel behavior, seasonality, and economic contribution
  • Build defensible forecasts, dashboards, tables, and written findings from survey and administrative data
  • Explain methods, limitations, and implications to agency leaders, community stakeholders, and industry audiences
  • Contribute tourism research and economic-analysis qualifications to AlphaGov proposals when permissioned

Required:

  • Tourism economics, visitor research, travel-demand analysis, or related public-sector research experience
  • Strong quantitative analysis and ability to communicate results in decision-ready reports
  • Comfortable as a 1099 / project-based collaborator with travel as needed for client on-sites
