As a Research Consultant, you'll play a key role in designing, delivering, and presenting research-driven strategies and campaigns.

• Quantitative and qualitative research - designing customised research, survey design, in-depth interviews, and stakeholder workshops
• Data analysis and insight generation - distilling complex information into clear, strategic recommendations using SPSS/Q
• Consulting - turning research findings into compelling narratives that influence decision-making at a senior level
• Cross-functional collaboration - working closely with consulting, communications, and strategy teams to deliver integrated solutions and design results winning campaigns.

You'll bring:

• A bachelor's degree in business, commerce, politics, research, or a related field
• A solid understanding of quantitative and qualitative research methodologies
• Exceptional attention to detail and the ability to simplify complexity
• Outstanding written and verbal communication skills
• A proactive mindset and genuine enthusiasm for consulting
