• Leading mid-level consultants and playing a key role in project delivery
• Applying deep strategic thinking to propel client performance.

You'll bring:

• 8+ years' experience in strategic quantitative research
• A strong agency-side foundation, ideally with FMCG and/or Services exposure
• Hands-on experience designing and delivering intricate ad hoc research
• Strong analytical skills (Q a bonus) and sharp commercial acumen
• Confident presentation, facilitation and advisory skills
• Strategic curiosity and the ability to bring both structure and imagination to client challenges.

Why this agency?

• Uncapped opportunities for growth - a pathway to Director with zero red tape
• No time sheets
• Financial reward - market-leading salary, bonuses and benefits
• Forward-thinking SLT: Innovative, agile and focused on the future of insights strategy. This agency knows how to stay relevant and will ensure you do.
