Rare: Group is looking for a proactive, tenacious and driven Senior Research Consultant with a keen eye for detail to lead on the commissioning, delivery and output of our client projects.

ABOUT RARE:
Rare: Group is a consumer research and product development company. We help clients understand consumer problems with qualitative and quantitative data, and implement change with the development of digital products ready for launch.
