Responsibilities Directs a complex and extensive research and statistics program through subordinate supervisors in a subject matter specialty or functions as a research and statistical consultant in a departmental program in which the validity of statistical data is critical; and performs other duties as required.

Situation A: The direction of a research statistician program at this level involves the supervision of study projects through subordinate professional supervisory personnel. The projects involved do not reflect a total departmental research and statistics program but a major area within a departmental statistical program or a major study area that requires extensive coordination of the Research and Statistical Study staffs with the activities of operating subject matter specialty personnel. The total research program is normally under the administrative direction of a higher level Research Statistician or subject matter administrator.

Situation B: This class may also characterize a departmental research and statistical consultant position which advises departmental administrators and high level subject matter specialists on research and statistical methods and techniques. Responsibilities also involve reviewing departmentally and privately prepared data for validity of statistical formulas and methods applied. Work is performed in accordance with departmental guidelines or objectives outlined by high level subject matter specialists. Consultant work at this level is characterized by exceptional breadth and impact: surveys typically extend beyond the operations of the employing agency and findings have a significant regulatory impact on private industry as well as departmental programs.
