Enjoy stability and scale in an independently owned, yet international consulting firm. With offices sprinkled all over the nation, our client offers a unique perspective into the hearts and minds of everyday Aussies. They use a broad mix of research, evaluation and data gathering to inform policy making and resource allocation for some of society’s most important issues: think financial support to disadvantaged communities, addressing cost of living pressures, developing infrastructure in cities and regional areas and building appropriate defence.

The Role

About You
You bring 8+ years’ research delivery experience across agency or vendor environments, with tertiary qualifications in psychology, marketing, economics, social sciences or statistics. You’re proficient in statistical analysis, research methodologies and tools such as Q and SPSS.
