    Default job background
    Description

    Research Manager - Quantitative

    Verian, Communications & Behavioural Research

    London, 4 Millbank Westminster

    Verian (formerly Kantar Public) is one of the top tier social research agencies in the UK. We have around 150 specialist researchers working together to provide knowledge, evidence and insight that helps Government, the private sector and the Third Sector plan and care for society.

    We are now looking for a Research Manager with a specialism in quantitative communications research to join our Communications and Behavioural Practice. In this role, you will manage customer insight and tracking projects, as well as Government communications evaluation projects across a range of topic areas. You will work with clients to build lasting relationships, and contribute to delivering work across our sector-leading public-sector communications and insight evaluation offer.

    The Communications and Behavioural Practice brings together varied expertise, including quantitative and qualitative research methods, advanced data analytics, communications and behavioural science consultancy, and disciplines such as behavioural economics and cognitive and social psychology. The team conducts a wide range of communications development, campaign evaluation, customer insight and behavioural science research programmes, tackling issues from environmental behaviours to public health and misinformation to domestic abuse. We work with Transport for London on a range of customer insight and marketing evaluation programmes, and have evaluated most of the Government's flagship campaigns, such as THINK road safety, vaccines, Be Clear on Cancer, organ donation and prison officer recruitment. Our work is always interesting, it often involves sensitive issues, and it makes a real difference to the world we live in.

    Your responsibilities

    • Act as a key contact for clients
    • Manage customer insight and communications evaluation projects concurrently for one of our largest clients, as well as across our wider client portfolio, ensuring efficient, profitable, high-quality project delivery
    • Contribute to other types of projects – e.g. qualitative or experimental research
    • Design high-quality questionnaires and other research materials
    • Contribute to reporting and presentations for varied senior audiences
    • Line manage one or more individuals and support their work and development
    • Develop, over time, an area of specialist expertise (e.g. a policy area within our portfolio, a particular methodology, a contribution to innovation)

    Your Profile

    • Previous experience in a social or market research agency, with an emphasis on quantitative customer insight research
    • Proven project management and leadership experience – strong client handling skills and an ability to coordinate a research team and deliver work to time and budget
    • Able to respond quickly and work at pace when required, to multi-task and get the job done
    • Adept at interpreting data in tables and graphs, finding the story in that data, and telling that story to clients in a way which is compelling but doesn't lose sight of the evidence
    • Excellent attention to detail, and verbal and written communication skills – preparing engaging, authoritative and insightful presentations and reports
    • A real team player – interested in working with others to do great things and eager to learn from others in the team and support junior staff in their development journey

    What we offer

    Our open and engaging environment will give you a chance to develop both professionally and personally, surrounded by passionate colleagues.

    We appreciate the positive atmosphere of collaboration that we have built, where cooperation, flexibility, and mobility are encouraged, and where you will be asked to follow your interests and the learning opportunities that come with them

    You will receive a performance-based salary with competitive benefits, work flexibility, work from home arrangement and last but not least, a space for innovative ideas and continuous improvement.

    We want to build an equality of opportunity in a fair and encouraging working environment where people feel included, accepted, and are allowed to thrive in a space where their wellbeing is taken into consideration.
