About Us
We are a global digital consultancy with over 8,000 professionals across strategy, research, data science, design, and engineering. We build digital products and solutions for some of the world's leading brands, with a 29-year track record of delivering business impact at scale.
The Role
We are looking for an experienced User Researcher to join our Strategy & Foundations team, embedded in a strategic product program for one of the world's leading dealership management software providers.
You will conduct research across the full discovery runway - from generative fieldwork and stakeholder interviews through to evaluative usability testing on live prototypes. Your findings will feed directly into the service blueprint, inform product prioritisation, and give strategy leads the evidence they need to make confident investment decisions.
You'll go beyond gathering and presenting research findings. You'll translate insights into actionable recommendations, influence decision-making across multidisciplinary teams, and work closely with Service Designers and Product Managers to ensure research informs product and service direction.
You'll collaborate regularly with stakeholders and customers across the UK and US.
Key Responsibilities:
Plan and execute continuous discovery research, including customer interviews, stakeholder interviews, contextual fieldwork, and context mapping
Conduct moderated and unmoderated usability testing on prototypes to identify friction before build begins
Synthesize qualitative data into clear, prioritized recommendations for the Service Designer and product leadership
Define user personas, experience metrics, and customer journey insight frameworks
Manage research logistics end-to-end, including participant recruitment, discussion guides, and insight documentation
Present findings to non-research audiences, including senior stakeholders, in a way that builds advocacy and supports decision-making
Required Skills & Experience:
Proven experience as a User Researcher, with a track record of both generative and evaluative research in complex product environments
Strong qualitative research skills - experienced in designing and leading in-depth interviews, contextual enquiry, and diary studies
Experience with usability testing methodologies, both moderated and unmoderated
Ability to synthesize large volumes of qualitative data into clear, actionable insights
Strong communication skills - able to present research findings persuasively to non-research audiences, including senior stakeholders
Collaborative working style, with experience embedded in cross-functional teams alongside designers, product managers, and strategy leads
Nice to Have:
Experience in B2B SaaS, enterprise software, or operationally complex product environments
Familiarity with automotive retail, dealership operations, or related service industries
Proficiency with Dovetail, UserTesting, Figma, Miro, or Confluence
Knowledge of quantitative research methods to complement qualitative practice
Experience contributing to or directly informing product roadmap prioritization
