Own Your Projects

Influence What’s Next

Work alongside strategists, data scientists, and behavioural experts to shape smarter communications, influence decision-making, and tackle briefs that often don’t have a clear path (yet).

Help pitch winning proposals and deliver them, and build meaningful client relationships—this is a career-defining role for a curious, commercially minded Senior Research Manager.
