Senior Research Exec/Research Manager - Multidisciplinary Independent Insight Consultancy

Our client is one of the breakaway insight consultancy success stories. They have effectively navigated their early years to achieve growth and recognition way beyond expectations. They are consolidating this with the hire of enthusiastic, inquisitive and smart people who will enjoy helping shape the company’s future.

Built by industry leaders with a solid reputation for delivering business consultancy as well as rigorous insight, they have tons of experience across a wide range of topics, audiences and sectors, but they are still just as excited by how they can learn and expand their knowledge from you as you can from them.

The type of work they do is certainly more strategic than tactical. Recent studies have included big segmentations, market landscape / market entry studies, identifying new territories and products to drive innovation programmes, brand re-positioning and product / price optimisation for clients across tech, finance, utilities and alcohol . They often get briefs where the ‘problem’ is quite fundamental to the client e.g. this part of the business is failing...what do we do? They are therefore multidisciplinary, designing bespoke studies to answer whatever the challenge is. So they are full service quant and qual work includes forums, communities, IDIs, regular and creative groups.

They have a strong emphasis on working collaboratively in a pretty flat structure, everyone contributes without the boundaries of levels or structures and the refreshing news is that the hours are reasonable with everyone treated as a grown up.

You will be a confident hands on researcher happy to work across qual and quant, they can support and train in both disciplines, but ideally not starting from scratch. Your experience can be from mainstream or specialist agency, ideally covering a variety of sectors and any international experience would be an advantage. Career defining opportunity to learn from incredible directors and advance with the business.
