This is a hire with weight to it. Join one of Australia's standout independent insights consultancies, a national business with a brilliant industry reputation, a seriously smart team and a client list spanning some of the country's biggest brands. They're known for the kind of research that gets into the guts of a business problem. Complex questions, clever quant, strategic qual, commercial thinking and recommendations that clients can actually do something with. The work is broad, but always strategic. Think brand, customer, segmentation, innovation, pricing, product, service and experience, often with multiple layers to the problem and plenty of room to question the brief, shape the approach and influence what happens next.
The Opportunity
They're looking for someone with that extra layer of experience, confidence and strategic maturity. Someone who can step into complex client problems, lead the thinking, bring others with them and operate as a trusted senior pair of hands across both the work and the team. Alongside owning sophisticated quant and senior client relationships, you'll have a team of your own from day one.
You'll be someone who can:
- Take a complex business problem and work out what the client really needs to know
- Design smart quantitative approaches across ad hoc and tracking research
- Get underneath the data and turn it into a clear strategic story
- Confidently advise senior clients and push their thinking
- Build strong client relationships, spot opportunities and contribute to proposals and pitches
- Lead and develop direct reports, adapting your style to get the best from different personalities
- Coach researchers to become stronger thinkers, storytellers and client consultants
- Run several complex projects at once while keeping an eye on quality and commercials
- Bring strong methodological judgement without needing to run every piece of analysis yourself.
