Scope to grow profit share & be more than just an employee
I'm working with a fast-growing, innovation-driven insights consultancy that's looking for a Research Director to lead their Melbourne team.

- Shape the consultancy's quant offer, while supported by a strong qual team.
- Drive end-to-end insight programs: segmentation, tracking, innovation, comms & CX/VOC.
- Genuine commercial ownership: revenue accountability, business development and scope to grow profit share over time.
- Supportive, collaborative culture with plenty of freedom to experiment and innovate.
What we're looking for:
- Circa 10+ years as a senior agency-side researcher (Research Director / strong AD) with quant expertise. (Open to someone stepping up)
- FMCG or retail experience essential.
- Proven team leadership & mentorship.
- Commercially astute with new business development experience.
