Are you a senior consumer insights expert ready to bring serious strategic firepower to some of Australia's biggest consumer brands?

We need a strategist who can wow the c-suite, cut through complexity, draw from deep methodological smarts, mine insights from data in unexpected ways, and craft bold, brilliant strategy.

Recent Projects & Strategic Partnerships

You'll work as a trusted advisor to some of Australia's most recognisable brands - embedded in long-term partnerships that shape strategy and drive performance. Recent work includes:

  • Supporting challenger telco brands with segmentation, choice modelling, dual brand and comms trackers, and agile ad hoc projects across product, comms and CX.
  • Partnering with a national property developer on strategy for residential developments - combining quant, qual, modelling and co-creation workshops.
  • Working with a global payments provider and their partners on U&As that fuel innovation with consultancy-style delivery, stakeholder workshops and high-level exposure.
  • Advising a fast-growing food brand across brand health, reputation, message testing and product development — a dynamic mix of tracking and strategic project work.

What you'll be doing:

  • Champion amazing client relationships
  • Tackle thorny business problems through smart research design
  • Drawing from your deep well of quantitative methodologies
  • Translate sophisticated data sets into clear, actionable strategies
  • Facilitate workshops, deliver impactful presentations, and engage senior stakeholders
  • Apply deep strategic thinking to propel client performance
  • Flex your commercial muscles to develop the pipeline

You'll bring:

  • Significant experience in customised consumer insights strategy
  • A strong market research agency track record
  • A packed methodological toolkit (quantitative) with a wealth of experience across industries and complex, ad hoc research challenges
  • Qualitative skills a bonus
  • Sharp analytical skills (Q)
  • Confidence as a presenter, facilitator and trusted advisor
  • Strategic curiosity, rigour, and imagination in equal measure
  • Experience in building up high-performance team members
  • Market-leading rewards – salary, bonuses, and perks
  • No timesheets – focus on impact, not admin
  • Rocket science thinking – challenge your thinking, get comfortable with what you don't know, and learn from inspiring folk
  • Flexibility – hybrid model (3:2), with an office vibe that draws the team in naturally
  • Agility with scale – collaborate with smart teams across locations, with all-agency events that fuel learning, connection, and celebration
  • Innovative leadership – a forward-thinking SLT driving change in the insights space
  • In-house AI agency & clever tech – built to keep you (and your clients) ahead of the curve

If you're craving stretch, variety and influence - this one's for you.
