  • Ability to uncover the deeper motivations and tensions that drive consumer behaviour and translate them into actionable business opportunities.
  • Experience managing complex research projects from proposal through to debrief, balancing quality, timelines and commercial considerations.
  • Talent for synthesising multiple sources of information into compelling narratives that influence decision-making.
  • Curiosity about emerging research tools and technologies, with the ability to combine human understanding and innovative approaches to generate stronger insights.
