This 12-month Parental Leave Contract role, from mid-February 2023 to February 2024, will enable

assist with set-up and coordination of face-to-face focus groups in the Melbourne office or online
groups. Typical hours envisaged as 10am-6.30pm Mon-Thurs, Fri 9am-5.30pm. Training provided.

**The Company**

ORIMA Research Pty Ltd is an evidence-based, social research consultancy. We are Australia’s largest
provider of research, advisory and data services to the public sector, conducting research for
Australian and State / Territory Government clients on a range of topics including healthcare and
wellbeing, employee engagement, education, environmental assets, policy, disability, sports
programs, communications, First Nations and more.

Our mission is to improve the wellbeing of people by contributing to high-quality, evidence-based
public policy, public administration, service delivery and management decisions, through our market
and social research, data analytics and advisory services. Our projects have made a significant
contribution to advancing evidence-based public policy across a broad range of areas.

We are 100% Australian owned and are growing. We have offices in Melbourne, Canberra, Sydney
and Brisbane and employ around 75 permanent staff as well as a national Aboriginal and Torres
Strait Islander Field Force of over 35 casual interviewers.

**The Team**

Our team of qualitative researchers regularly conducts fieldwork (i.e. research sessions, including
small group workshops / focus groups and interviews) in a range of locations across Australia. We
are seeking a highly capable person with at least 2 years relevant work experience to join our
qualitative research division to project manage and co-ordinate our team’s fieldwork.***

This role will include interacting with various suppliers to arrange, organise and co-ordinate the
logistics for a range of Australia-wide fieldwork projects, overseen by one of our senior qualitative
researchers. This role is critical to the successful delivery of ORIMA’s qualitative research projects.
Research and / or fieldwork management experience is useful, but not essential to being able to do
this role. Training and support will be provided. Experience organising or planning events and
managing suppliers would also be highly relevant and experience in finding solutions when plans
suddenly change - as they do.
