Sydney, Australia Resources Group AU Full time

This trailblazing innovation consultancy in Sydney helps commercial and social organisations change.

They do this by designing new products, services, innovation processes and brands that are future centric. Unlike their competitors, they don’t just deliver insights; they take it to the next level designing implementable solutions from service designs, training sessions, real-world pilots, and prototypes.

Multidimensional, they draw upon a variety of thinking grounded in qualitative research, human-centred exploration, trends, cultural insights, and hypothesis-driven experiments.

Bespoke, brief-led, no two projects are the same. Although the team is small, they partner with hugely respected commercial & social organisations; Lululemon, Universal, Reach Our Australia, Google, McCain and Lion, to name a few.

**Recent project examples include**:

- Future store design for a global retail brand
- Delivering innovation training sessions
- Building innovation incubators for a tech giant
- Constructing a VR training programme for a restaurant chain
- Designing digital services to support youth mental health
- Three-year innovation strategies for an alcoholic beer brand
- Re-shaping the non-alcoholic drink landscape
- Service experience improvement for children with complex medical conditions

**The role: Innovation Manager**

This role would suit an ambitious qualitative researcher/designer/strategist who wants to work on various projects from brief and inception to execution and final implementation.

With a flat structure, you’ll be hands-on with every aspect of the innovation process with key responsibilities in:

- Facilitating and de-coding client briefs
- Pulling apart questions to deeply understand the problem
- Project management - timelines, budgets and resources
- Designing research plans
- Running qualitative insights from expert interviews to in-home observations, workshops and co-creation sessions
- Translating insights into emotive stories and thought-provoking material
- Managing prototypes development with suppliers
- Presenting and implementing recommendations into client’s business

**The essentials**:

- Proven consulting agency experience in innovation/qualitative research/service design/product design or strategy
- Exposure to qualitative methodologies such as - in-depth interviews, groups, observations, co-creation sessions, ideation workshops etc
- Confident communication and ability to build a connection with people from all walks of life
- Comfortable being uncomfortable, stretching your thinking and working with ambiguity
- An ability to make things happen - proactive, resourceful and tenacious
- A desire to learn commercially, academically and emotionally.
- Keen sense of humour and good music taste (they take their playlists curation_ very _seriously)

The values of this agency are the centre of their culture - ambiguity, empathy, constructive troublemaking, and fearless experimentation. Playful, bold, and witty, they love to think strategically, creatively, and analytically simultaneously.

In addition to a highly competitive remuneration package, flexible working and fast-tracked career progression, they offer a progressive suite of benefits; Friday early finishes all year-round, weekly training sessions, birthday leave, social events, fast-tracked career paths and amazing open-planned warehouse offices in the heart of Surry Hills
