Love uncovering the story behind the numbers? Ready to lead research that shapes big decisions?

We're working with an independent insights and strategy consultancy that's doing things a little differently.

The work is varied, intellectually stimulating and genuinely strategic. And the culture? Curious, collaborative, creative and refreshingly free of egos.

They're looking for an experienced Quantitative Strategy Director to join their Sydney team.

This is a senior, hands-on consulting role where you'll have the freedom to think differently, influence clients and help shape the agency's quantitative offering.

You'll be:

• Leading complex, bespoke quantitative research projects from brief through to strategic recommendations.

• Tackling challenges across brand positioning, segmentation, innovation, customer experience and pricing.

• Turning sophisticated research findings into compelling stories that influence senior stakeholders.

• Building trusted relationships with major brands and identifying opportunities for growth.

• Collaborating with specialists across strategy, qualitative research, behavioural science and cultural insights.

• Mentoring researchers, developing talent and championing methodological excellence.

• Contributing to the growth and strategic direction of the quantitative practice.

About You

You're a quantitative research leader who loves the craft of research but gets even more excited about what the findings actually mean.

You'll bring:

• Significant senior-level quantitative research experience within a strategic insights agency.

• A strong technical toolkit spanning advanced quantitative methodologies and research design.

• Broad experience across sectors, methodologies and business challenges.

• Exceptional storytelling, presentation and senior stakeholder management skills.

• Commercial acumen, curiosity and the ability to develop lasting client relationships.

• A collaborative leadership style and genuine enthusiasm for developing others.

Why Join?

This independently owned consultancy offers the opportunity to work alongside curious, creative thinkers who challenge convention and genuinely enjoy what they do.

Expect exciting projects, major brands, innovative methodologies and an environment where your ideas are valued.

There's also a strong emphasis on wellbeing, flexibility and professional development, with additional paid leave, ongoing learning opportunities and a supportive, ego-free culture.
