Associate Director - Social and Government

Location: Melbourne, Australia. Salary: AUD 120,000–140,000 + Super. (posted Sep 22 2025)

Company: Resources Group

Job Spec: Looking to step into a senior role where you'll have influence, variety, and the chance to shape high-profile work? This boutique insights and consulting firm is making waves across government, business, and retail, and they're looking for another senior leader to join the team. They deliver a broad mix of projects—from segmentation, brand positioning, CX, and tracking to product development, advertising and concept testing, and mystery shopping. Their work spans both B2B and B2C, with an in-house CX model that's become a cornerstone of their B2B projects.

Why this team stands out

- Flat, non-hierarchical structure where everyone's voice is valued
- Connect & Create — internal initiative ensuring all ideas are heard
- Co-working space in Collingwood with yoga, a cinema, and beer on tap
- Flexibility and hybrid working (without being fully remote)
- Loyalty leave — an extra 5 days annually after 4 years of service

The role

They’ve recently won a major multi-year community experience program at State level. This will be a cornerstone of the role, alongside a diverse mix of government and commercial ad hoc projects.

- Lead customised research projects end-to-end—from proposals through to polished client presentations
- Work across quantitative methods (with scope to flex into qualitative research)
- Build and nurture strong client relationships—presenting with confidence and curiosity
- Bring a strategic voice, adding value in client rooms and spotting opportunities organically
- Guide projects spanning CX, segmentation, brand strategy, and more

Who we're looking for

- Experienced custom researcher with solid quantitative chops; qualitative experience is a plus
- Thrives on client engagement, storytelling, and presenting
- Curious, energetic, and collaborative — comfortable speaking up and contributing ideas
- Social & Government experience is an advantage but not essential

This is a warm, ambitious, and supportive consultancy where you'll work directly with the two Directors and play a key role in shaping their next phase of growth.
