Specialist Recruiter within Market & Social Research, Insights, and Behavioural Strategy

Melbourne or Sydney

$75,000–$110,000 + Super

Join Australia's #1 Strategic Insights Consultancy – and help shape the future of their growing Qual division

From steering bold tech start-ups to exploring how young Australians navigate mental health, this award-winning boutique consultancy doesn't just do research — they create impact. They uncover truths, shift mindsets, and craft strategies that actually change things.

As a B-Corp certified business, purpose and profit are perfectly balanced. People are front and center here, and with some of the most progressive benefits in the industry, it's no surprise their team thrives.

This is your chance to become a foundational member of a high-performing start-up Qual team within a 60+ strong, national agency that operates at the intersection of qual, quant, analytics, brand strategy and cultural insights.

Whilst this role is based in Melbourne, the team has an office in Sydney and is open to speaking to Sydney talent.

Why this role?

You'll be joining a team of five razor-sharp Qual researchers and strategists — deeply curious minds who love digging beneath the surface and connecting dots others miss.

The work is diverse and strategic – spanning brand positioning, innovation, customer experience and U&A studies. It's 100% customised.

You'll take the lead on end-to-end qualitative fieldwork – from in-depth interviews and groups to online communities and immersive ethnography. You'll then turn human truths and cultural insight into compelling narratives that shape client strategy.

Clients range from top ASX brands to gutsy challengers across finance, FMCG, retail, media, entertainment, and not-for-profit.

What you'll bring:

  • 2+ years' qualitative research agency experience
  • Hands-on confidence with fieldwork – IDIs, groups, communities, workshops
  • End-to-end project experience – from proposal to presentation
  • A curious, culturally attuned mind that thrives on discovering the "why"
  • A desire to push boundaries and grow beyond traditional qual

This is more than just a job — it's a career-making opportunity that offers:

  • Immediate client exposure – no hand-holding here, you'll be in the room
  • Varied local and international clients
  • A high-growth culture that stretches your strategic thinking
  • Flexibility – hybrid working, sabbaticals, and even the chance to work from their UK office
  • Tools to become a sharper storyteller and commercial thinker
  • Standout benefits – enhanced parental leave, extra annual leave days, charity days, state-of-the-art offices, wellness perks, bonus schemes, epic socials and more
