Job description

Research Manager – Tech & AI Empowered Research Agency

Quantitative Research Manager – Tech & AI Empowered Research Agency

London (Hybrid Working)

£45,000 to 55,000 + benefits

This Tech & AI-enabled agency has created a dynamic platform and data products to enable a range of clients to acquire powerful data about what we think and do as consumers and citizens. They are on a mission to close the knowledge gap on public opinion and offer clients deep insight at the speed of software.

Their superstar research team is the cornerstone of achieving this and they are looking to expand the team. This will be a varied role — one day you may be working with some of the largest media or consumer goods companies another day you may be helping a smaller non‑for‑profit organisation achieve their own mission.

In this role, you will work closely with clients, running projects end‑to‑end, and helping clients get the most out of the platform and the research. To do this you will:

  • Independently own and deliver quantitative research projects across a range of sectors and audiences including political, consumer and B2B
  • Lead client calls and communications to scope out projects, provide updates during projects and briefings on findings and results.
  • Be ultra responsive to client needs and requests
  • Partner with consulting and analytics teams to deliver large‑scale insight projects.
  • Manage, coach and help to develop researchers in your team
  • Own and expand client accounts.

This is a great role for someone who has built great foundations in their knowledge of quantitative market research and is now looking to get more ownership and autonomy.

Requirements:

  • 3-5 years as a researcher in the quantitative market research industry.
  • You can help clients see around corners by spotting pitfalls from poor sampling, survey design decisions and then working with them on a pragmatic solution.
  • Experience of the full lifecycle for delivering market research projects from survey design through fieldwork and data delivery/outputs.
  • Track record delivering high-quality quantitative research across a range of use cases, such as brand tracking, brand lift/health studies, message and ad testing, and segmentations.
  • Comfortable designing surveys to a high standard.
  • Commercially minded

This will be a great fit for you if you are curious, detail‑oriented and goal‑driven. You will get a lot of autonomy and trust to flex your critical thinking and deliver exceptional client service. Clients come first, and you’re committed to helping them succeed. You love to help clients see around corners and you’re motivated by their success. In addition, you are keen to learn new methods & technologies.
