[R-jobs] Looking for a casual contractor to write R functions and help integrate with Excel
We are a small consulting company that uses R to automate several data extraction fuctions from SPSS files -- most notably we create powerpoint slides from a script in Excel (using VBA) which calls R to extract data and place into Excel using RExcel. We're not specialists, and don't really have the time to understand R. Our CIO is the only person who even vaguely understands R, and he does not have the time anymore to help us. We'd be interested in creating a relationship with someone for occasional (e.g., 1 day here and there; a couple of hours here and there) to help us write functions in R. It's pretty low level stuff, and we're prepared to pay cash in some sort just to get us through simple change requests that come from our survey analysis team. We'd probably pay by the hour or job in small increments using something like PayPal; though a formal contractor arrangement could be put in place if required. Our core currencies are US$, UK? and Euro. Is there anyone who would like to know more?
