Note the last paragraph I quoted-- Simonsohn's inbox is full of tips about iffy research of many kinds.
There are two issues: having influence within a profession (difficult) and getting paid (not obvious, but possibly easier than having influence). The path isn't as easy as I thought. Perhaps the best route is looking for a job teaching good statistical practice.
If psychologists want and accept being taught good statistical practice, as Douglas_Knight suggested, then that seems likely to work.
