Quant Research Manager - Boutique Insights Agency - Purpose-Driven Work

Job description

Looking for a role where your work actually matters? Where you’ll be part of a small, smart, creative team that believes research should be co-created, ethical, and systems-aware?
We’re recruiting a Research Manager on behalf of a boutique insights agency that delivers full-service research with heart, brains, and purpose. They’re less than 10 people strong, but big on ambition and ideas. Their projects are diverse and impactful spanning environmental, social, economic, and cultural topics and they partner with clients to explore the deeper ‘why’ behind behaviour.
This is a rare opportunity to own your projects end to end, be visible, and work alongside a senior team that still love being hands-on. You’ll have the space to bring your thinking to the table and the trust to run with it.

The role:
  • Support on a range of tracking and ad hoc projects with a strong Quant focus (and room to flex into Qual)
  • Work across brand, comms, segmentation, influence mapping, and more
  • Get involved in big-picture, socially impactful work with a clear point of view
  • Drive project design and set up including writing questionnaires, link testing, managing fieldwork suppliers
  • Play a key role in data analysis, storyboarding and strategic reporting
  • Have the change to run smaller studies end to end with full ownership
  • Take an active role in client liaison and management
About you:
  • 2–4+ years’ experience in quantitative research and insights.
  • Solid data skills, and proven analysis skills in Q.
  • Comfortable juggling shifting priorities in a fast-paced, agile environment
  • Curious, collaborative, and confident working end to end on survey-based research  
  • Open to stretching into Qual, co-creation, and systems thinking
In return:
  • Creative workspace and hybrid flexible working
  • Additional annual leave
  • Brilliant mentors to help elevate both your technical research skills and strategic thinking
  • A warm, friendly team that likes to celebrate wins together and genuinely cares.
This role would suit someone ready to step up, to have more say, more variety, and more connection to meaningful work.
