The Opportunity

    Turn complex data into engaging, visually compelling presentations with clear, strategic commentary.
  • Project Management:
    Run projects end-to-end — managing timelines, suppliers, deliverables, and ensuring high-quality outcomes.

    Contribute to proposals, support business development, and provide direction to project team members.

What You'll Bring

  • Technical skills: Proficiency in SPSS or Q for data cleaning, weighting, and analysis.
  • Commercial mindset: Ability to connect research findings to client business objectives.
  • Soft skills: Detail-oriented, collaborative, proactive, and comfortable engaging with clients at senior levels.
