Quantitative Associate Director - Sharpen your Edge as a Strategist

Melbourne, Aus | $AUD 120-140,000 + SUPER | (posted Oct 15 2025)

Job Spec: It's time to sharpen your edge as a strategist. You've mastered the research craft, now you want the stretch – bigger challenges, smarter marketing thinking, and projects that make an impact.

This role delivers leadership of a high‑profile portfolio of FMCG and Services clients, guiding 1‑2 Consultants, mentorship from an amazing team Director, and an array of projects that go wide on methodology and deep on strategy. Such as:

- Future‑focused innovation and pack/price optimisation for a major drinks FMCG

- Pack refreshes, flavour studies, and brand asset tracking for a major food FMCG

- Foundational strategic research to help retailers like Coles unlock new blue‑sky opportunities

- Cultural foresight work exploring the future of pet ownership

- Brand tracking and segmentation to sharpen comms for a leading telco

In this role, you’ll:

- Lead client relationships with clarity and confidence

- Deliver gold‑standard quantitative thinking

- Run a mix of ad hoc and tracking projects from proposal to presentation

- Push the boundaries of what strategic insights can do

- Mentor and support 1‑2 brilliant Consultants

- Contribute to company culture and broader strategic direction

Does this sound like you?

- You thrive in a high‑performing, high‑trust culture where growth is real, not lip service

- You love collaborating in a multidisciplinary team – qual, quant, culture, behavioural, brand, and marketing science

- You’re looking for purpose as well as progression – this B‑Corp certified agency walks the talk

- You want the scale and stability of a larger agency, with the agility and spirit of an independent

- You’re keen to grow – not just up, but deep – whether that’s building your pipeline, becoming a brilliant people leader, dealing with tricky conversations, or honing your storytelling craft

- Oh, and the benefits? Market‑leading salary + bonuses, 26 weeks paid parental leave, up to 25 days holiday, flexible‑first working

What we’re looking for:

- Deep experience in consumer insights, especially quant

- Strong agency‑side background. Customised, ad hoc work essential

- Inspiring storyteller, sharp thinker, commercial brain

- Team builder with energy, ideas, and follow‑through
