General understanding of statistical methods Legal authorization to work in Canada without the need for sponsorship from Barr, now or in the future Demonstrated project management and leadership skills Demonstrated expertise through technical publications and presentations Demonstrated business development acumen and client relationship development skills Valid driver's license and acceptable driving record

This position can be based out of Barr's Calgary, Alberta, or Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, offices. Remote arrangements will be considered based on candidate qualifications, location requirements, and Barr's needs.
