Job description

• Central London (Hybrid, 3 office days)

This independent consultancy delivers world‑class market intelligence, strategic research and consulting services on the fast‑evolving and high‑profile data centre landscape. They are now on the lookout for a Senior Research Analyst to join their international team of experts.

Responsible for several key EMEA markets, you will be researching, analysing and presenting insights that shape crucial business development and investment decisions.

Gathering both quantitative and qualitative data, from both primary and secondary sources, you will analyse, identify patterns and trends, producing high level data, reports and presentations.

This multi‑faced role is very client‑facing, working directly with key stakeholders and building your professional network. You will conduct primary data collection via calls, meetings, site visits and industry networking.

You will have spent several years in research and analysis roles in an agency, consultancy or in‑house role, with expertise gained in the data centre sector a must. You will have a strong knowledge of key market participants, infrastructure considerations, industry terminology and commercial drivers.

If you have gained your data centre industry knowledge in adjacent industries such as energy, government, construction, think tanks or infrastructure we are also keen to hear from you! Researching for and reporting to global clients across international markets, fluency in French or Arabic is advantageous (but not essential). You must have a track record in gathering primary information from industry stakeholders, from calls, attending events, approaching new contacts and building relationships.

The role will give you exposure to a truly global business, while still being part of a small, close‑knit team where your contribution makes a real difference. If you’re proactive, detail‑oriented, and eager to progress your research and communication skills in this dynamic sector, this could be the ideal next step.

In addition to an excellent salary and package you will also have plenty of opportunity to develop your skillset and career in a supportive working environment which is guaranteed to challenge and stimulate.
