Research Manager | Quantitative | Ad-hoc | FMCG + Retail.

  • £40,000
Our client, a boutique research consultancy, specialises in challenging the status quo using behavioural economics and advanced quantitative methods. Formed in 2015, the company has grown a reputation for delivering cutting-edge insights that go beyond traditional techniques. With a small but highly skilled team, they pride themselves on offering a supportive and fun work environment, complete with flexible hybrid working, regular social events, and comprehensive health insurance.
  • The Day-to-Day

    As a Quantitative Research Manager, you’ll work closely with the senior team to lead a variety of ad-hoc and continuous research projects. You’ll manage the entire research lifecycle, from designing and proposing projects to delivering insightful reports directly to clients. Expect to work on everything from new product development and brand tracking to pricing optimisation and category U&As. You’ll also be a key player in managing relationships with major clients, like global coffee brands and local UK attractions.

    You’ll be responsible for managing internal resources, overseeing budgets, and ensuring projects are delivered to the highest standards. As the team grows, you’ll also have the opportunity to mentor junior staff and shape the future of the company’s research offering.

  • The Ideal Candidate

    You have at least 3 years of experience in a research agency, with a solid understanding of quantitative methods and a passion for uncovering real commercial insights from data. You’ve managed key accounts before and are comfortable running complex projects with minimal oversight. Experience in FMCG and retail sectors is a big plus, and familiarity with advanced methodologies like Conjoint and MaxDiff would be highly advantageous.

    Being part of a small team, you’re a proactive, independent worker who’s happy to roll up your sleeves and get involved in the day-to-day running of projects. You’re also a great communicator, able to present findings in a clear and compelling way to clients.

  • Why Join?

    Ready to accelerate your research career while working with some of the biggest names in FMCG and retail? This role offers a rare opportunity for someone looking to step up and take the lead on complex, high-impact projects. If you thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced environment and are passionate about turning data into actionable insights, this could be the perfect next step for you.
