Are you a quant researcher who loves turning complex data into sharp, story-driven insights? Looking to work on high-impact B2B projects with some of the biggest names in tech?

We're seeking an experienced Research Manager or Senior Research Manager to lead bespoke quantitative projects (with some qualitative work), from proposal to presentation.

You’ll work closely with well-known tech brands on thought leadership, brand, and ad testing studies—no trackers, all ad hoc work!

Responsibilities include:

• Own end-to-end delivery of research projects
• Lead proposal writing, questionnaire design, and fieldwork setup
• Work consultatively with clients to uncover meaningful insights
• Present findings clearly and confidently
• Collaborate with in-house operations (no scripting or data processing on your plate)

Requirements include:

• Solid experience in a market research agency (B2B experience is a plus). Agency and client-side experience also suitable. Client-side only if working in a relevant sector.
• Comfortable leading client calls and crafting compelling narratives
• Proficient with tools like Excel and PowerPoint; interest in AI tools is a bonus
• Consultative mindset and storytelling skills
• Part of a tight-knit, 13-person research team within a company of over 30 employees
• Hybrid working: 2 days/week in the office
• Positive, supportive culture
• Room for growth, with more junior team members coming onboard
