Our client is an established insights and research agency working with major brands across tech, finance, and consumer goods. They’re known for primary research that goes beyond the data — storytelling, narrative, and outputs that actually land with clients.

Following a period of change, they’re in a positive reset. A new CEO has joined with a clear focus on culture and momentum. The team is lean, collaborative, and ready to grow.

• Loves turning insight into a clear, compelling story
• Speaks up in rooms — confidently, not loudly
• Wants to be close to clients early, not hidden behind senior layers
• Is ambitious about growing into more senior responsibility over time
