Trainee Insight Executive

Are you looking to develop your career with an agency that takes a different approach to working with its clients?

We are looking for ambitious people at the start of their insight career to join us and be a part of our exciting plans for growth.

What type of person are we looking for?

The work we do requires the ability to be creative about methodologies based on an understanding of the purpose and potential applications of research.

We think about the issue first, methodology later. We want someone who gets this and wants to learn more, someone who likes to push himself or herself and is not afraid to operate out of their comfort zone.

We want someone who can adapt and be flexible in the way they work and who doesn’t just think about process. Someone who is never satisfied with the satisfactory.

We are looking for a true self-starter, someone who wants to take responsibility, contribute from day one and really hit the ground running.

We want someone with a real eye for detail and passion for research helping brands succeed and grow. Ideal candidates will have had some significant experience of qualitative and/or quantitative research as part of their degree studies.

Providing support to the team on all aspects of the projects;
