Take a look at this:
http://careers.exxonmobil.com/openings/Global-Climate-Change-Researcher-5328-24539BR
I have both interest in and qualifications for the below, as emboldened in red.
Primary Job Functions: We are seeking a candidate to advance research and assessment providing fundamental understanding on global climate change issues. The candidate would lead research in areas such as Earth systems science and the role of technologies and systems in managing the risks posed by global climate change. The successful candidate will develop collaborative research efforts, contribute significant publications, contribute to assessments (e.g., the IPCC) and demonstrate strong scientific leadership within both the corporation and external scientific community.
Job Requirements: A PhD in engineering, science, economics, or related field is required. A strong background in science and engineering fundamentals is essential, particularly in the areas of computational and mathematical analysis. Significant demonstrated experience in researching Earth systems science, integrated assessment and energy modeling is preferred.
On top of all the above, a family home of many decades is just 10.4 miles away.
Oops - it's been sold. Too bad - it was a lovely, lovely estate.
Also, although the job description says:
ExxonMobil offers an excellent working environment and a competitive compensation and benefits package,
even Exxon could not afford me. The going rate to better my current situation as Master Of My Kingdom in Alaska would have to be somewhere in the neighborhood of $50mm per year.
Naah. I think I'll pass. But you can try to convince me otherwise.....
