Key responsibilities include:

• Running qualitative projects from proposal to debrief
• Moderating focus groups, IDIs, online communities, co-creation sessions, and workshops
• Generating meaningful insights and turning them into compelling client stories
• Building trusted client relationships across FMCG, Tech, FS, and Retail
• Delivering polished reports and impactful presentations

• A fast-paced, high-growth environment with international backing
• Transparent, inspiring leadership
• Flexible working arrangements
• Competitive salary and benefits
• Career progression based on merit, not years of service
