WHO ARE INSITES CONSULTING?

Founded in 1997, InSites Consulting was the pioneer of digital market research. Today, we have over 600 members of staff in 18 offices and 8 partner hubs across 6 continents, but we never lost our pioneering spirit, rated globally in the top 50 most innovative agencies. Our portfolio of over 300 clients includes many of the globe’s largest consumer brands.

Our success is based on our amazing team using our state-of-the-art technology to empower consumers and brands to better connect and collaborate.

We believe the best work comes from happy people. Here are just a few of the professional and personal perks you’ll experience at InSites Consulting.

Diversity & Inclusion

We are a culturally diverse business, but we are committed to being even more diverse and inclusive in giving everyone a voice. We welcome applications from anyone that feels they have the necessary skills & experience, and can bring something different to the team.

Hybrid working culture

We embrace flexible working and give our people the personal freedom to work between our central offices and their home. Where and when people work is a joint decision with the focus on what’s needed to do a great job rather than where you are and strict working hours.

Participation

We encourage our people to take active part in discussions and ideas on the future of our organization. Our annual global congress, annual employee survey, quarterly on-track survey & weekly happiness barometers…; it all gives our people a channel to express themselves.

‘Glocal’ flavor

We manage one organization from a strong global vision co-created with local flavour. Our ‘forward’ values are what unites us, but we also recognize the need to be locally relevant and empower our local offices & teams to shape their own future.

WHAT DOES THE ROLE LOOK LIKE?

Our UK team is located in Manchester and London. We help our clients to let go and delegate real power to consumers, the ultimate key to making better marketing decisions and driving business growth. We get our energy from helping world-leading brands to excel in marketing and to develop deeper connections with consumers on a global scale. Our recipe for success: a never-ceasing enthusiasm, a lot of hard work, a culture of sharing, and continuous innovation in research methods and marketing thought leadership. And last but not least: positively surprising our clients every day. As a Senior Research Consultant, you report to one of the teams of Senior Research Managers. The key role of the Senior Research Executive is to manage quantitative, qualitative and community research projects, with the supervision of senior researchers.

  • Managing small and medium-sized/ complexity projects, working directly with a project leader
