What is expected from you?

At the beginning of your career, as a graduate or with a few years’ experience, your focus is on learning and developing yourself into an all-round insights professional. Your objective is to achieve project management excellence and become a skilled, knowledgeable insights professional. You are passionate about working on real-life business challenges in the innovation, communication and pricing & portfolio optimization spaces and help some of the most influential companies in the world make data-driven decisions - from which products to launch or keep in market to determining whether the client should increase the price of their current product.

You will get the chance to learn the full process of a market research and consulting project:

• From solution brainstorming and writing proposals...
• to setting up research projects (including questionnaire creation, programming and technical setup),
• modelling and data analysis,
• giving actionable recommendations and strategies and
• working with clients from day one.

You may have more affinity for certain areas of research, such as analytics, modelling, client management, or advising clients. Therefore, your journey into market research and insights may differ from others because we emphasize each individual’s unique talents. But saying that, we do think it’s important to be exposed to all the different corners of research before you decide which career paths excite you most.

We expect you to learn, gain experience, maximize exposure to different challenges, build your technical skills, develop independence and project management excellence.

Other important competencies are being determined and focused, an eye for detail, being able to prioritize, and working with tight deadlines. We don’t ask you to be a perfectionist, we expect you to make mistakes in order to learn and grow; however, we do expect you to have an ambition to strive towards excellence. Technical skills such as R, SPSS, Excel are preferred.

Besides that,we expect you to have a true interest in marketing, market research, consumer behavior, and/or data analytics.
