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 through to presentation.

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

Responsibilities:

• Own end-to-end delivery of ad hoc research projects

• Work consultatively with clients to uncover meaningful insights
• Present findings with clarity and confidence
• Collaborate with in-house operations (no scripting or data processing on your plate)

Requirements:

• Solid experience in a market research agency (B2B experience is a plus). Agency and client-side experience are both acceptable. You may be only client-side if working in a relevant sector.
• Comfortable leading client calls and crafting compelling narratives
• Proficient with tools like Excel, PowerPoint, and an interest in AI tools is a bonus
• Consultative mindset and storytelling skills
• Ability to work within a tight-knit, 13-person research team in a company of over 30 employees

Positive, supportive culture with room to grow. More junior hires are expected in the team.
