Job description

• Central London - 3 x days in Office

Want to change how the world's biggest brands measure what works on social? This VC-backed measurement tech company has grown 20x in two years. It captures real-time feedback from the people who actually see the ads, and uses it to help advertisers answer three questions: what happened, why it happened, and what to do next.

They're now looking for an Insight Manager to join their growing business. This is a highly consultative role. You won't just run the numbers. You'll be a trusted strategic advisor to clients, challenging their thinking, shaping their decisions and turning raw data into stories that change how campaigns run.

Responsibilities:

• Lead social campaign measurement studies from start to finish. You'll take each study from brief through survey design, set-up and data collection (with the Paid Media team) to analysis, final report and client debrief.
• Find the "why" behind the results. Test client hypotheses, unpick what drove campaign performance, and build clear "what next" plans covering creative, targeting and distribution across the funnel.
• Take a consultative approach with clients. Get to know their goals, give actionable recommendations, manage expectations and build long-term partnerships.
• Drive account growth alongside the Client Strategy team.
• Work across the business with sales, product, tech and marketing, and help shape a platform that automates insight and gives clients self serve tools.

Requirements:

• 3 - 4 years in an insight or research role (ideally in social, marketing or media)
• Experience in campaign effectiveness, advertising or brand research (brand lift is a bonus)
• A consultative, client-facing style and the confidence to advise and influence senior stakeholders
• Strong quantitative research and survey design skills
• Excellent data analysis, Excel, deck-building and presenting skills
• A talent for turning complex data into plain, compelling stories for non-research audiences
• Organisation and attention to detail, plus the ability to juggle multiple projects and stakeholders
• A real interest in social media and influencer trends, and a willingness to learn adjacent skills such as paid media, content writing and service design

Why you'll love it

• 28 days' holiday + bank holidays
• Hybrid working (3 days a week in a dog-friendly East London office)
• Wellbeing package, MacBook, regular socials and charity days
• Global clients across EMEA, APAC and the US

Is this you?

This is a lean, fast-moving start-up in hyper-growth. You'll get real ownership from day one, and with global clients there may be the occasional call outside usual hours. If you're a driven self-starter who does well under pressure and wants to shape a fast-growing industry, this could be the best move of your career.
