Job Details

Are you an expert in brand and communications research solutions?

This is a really exciting opportunity for a quantitative or mixed methods researcher to become the research methods knowledge director. This role focuses purely on identifying, trialling and developing new innovative research methods to be used for one of their biggest accounts with a fundamental British Government department.

You will provide a key role drawing together research from across a number of workstreams for the account, as well as identifying opportunities for efficiencies in research delivery drawing on best practice, help develop knowledge and skills across the research and client team as well as among the wider client organisation through a programme of training and knowledge sharing.

You'll be working on a huge change project for one of the biggest British government departments as a consultant rather than research partner (it's pretty much a client-side role). It was a joint pitch with a management consultancy for a huge change project and they need a research expert to work with the consultancy and the department to consult on this huge project. Alongside this role, they have a dedicated team for this account across qual, quant, method specialists and analysts.

This organisation have a methods team who help develop methods for the whole organisation, locally and internationally. There are experts in-house to bounce ideas off.

It's high profile work and you will be key to identifying ways in which research could and can be conducted differently. Another part of the role will be working with the wider team via workshops and training sessions, imparting your knowledge and best practice.

In essence, we want someone with a desire to do fantastic work which has real impact for Government, the third sector and society. Someone who knows every aspect of research and wants to look at the bigger picture of research.

Public sector experience is not essential as long as you have strong experience in brand and communications quantitative / qualitative research from a research agency.
