- Work closely with the Head of Qual and senior team members to contribute to the development of IP and new AI market offerings.

What We’re Looking For:

- Brand and Marketing Enthusiast: You’re passionate about how brands stay relevant and connect with their audiences.

- Cultural Savvy: You stay in tune with cultural shifts and trends that impact consumer behaviour and sentiment.

- Client‑Focused: You have strong experience managing client relationships, offering insights that go beyond surface‑level research and drive real change.

- Methodological Excellence: You are an accomplished Quallie, with a strong track record of working at top‑flight market research or brand consultancy.

- Team Leader: You’ll be mentoring junior staff and contributing to a collaborative and nurturing environment where everyone can thrive.

- Innovative Mindset: You’re excited about applying new methodologies and exploring emerging trends to push the boundaries of qualitative research.

What you’ll love:

- Collaborative Environment: You’ll work alongside a supportive, like‑minded team of experts who value innovation and teamwork.

- Big Picture Thinkers: They’re not afraid to aim high and explore new possibilities.

- Diverse Perspectives: A belief that different backgrounds, skills, and ways of thinking lead to better results.

- Work‑Life Balance: Ambitious but balanced, they prioritize personal well‑being alongside professional success.
