There may be the opportunity for the position to become a permanent role in future if there is a good mutual fit and business need for a permanent hire.


Your primary role:

  • Your research responsibilities will be to oversee projects and project teams, be the main point of contact with the client, and write and give client presentations
  • You will also support the Team Director to manage the team, with responsibilities involving conducting appraisals, pay reviews, monitoring of performance, personal development, training of staff, recruitment and developing and implementing internal company procedures
  • You will also be looking to take your first steps in formal business development
  • You will write proposals to win new business, consider timescales and calculate the research cost alongside Directors and Project Managers
  • Involvement in talent acquisition and assessing potential new staff

  • You are a collaborative team player who works well with colleagues
  • You communicate ideas and issues in an effective, straightforward fashion
  • You are highly motivated and want to seize opportunities to develop new skills and progress your career

Life at Research Partnership:

We love what we do and continuously strive for innovation and creativity.

We believe everyone should continuously be learning and provide:

  • A comprehensive training and development programme for all staff, from entry level apprentice to senior management
  • A relaxed and friendly working environment
  • Social events including a summer day out and endofyear party, along with regular social events after office hours
  • Fundraising and charity events we support Forever Angels, a children's charity whose aim is to care for abandoned babies in Tanzania, Africa, as well as the local charity, Fulham Good Neighbours
