1 month ago

Ellesmere Port, United Kingdom Barbour ABI Full time

AMA Research is part of Barbour ABI, the market leading provider of UK built environment intelligence services, based in Cheshire Oaks near Chester.



Please double check you have the right level of experience and qualifications by reading the full overview of this opportunity below.

With more than 100 years’ experience, the in-house research team and dedicated economics team provide commercially relevant insight and unique analysis of trends and developments within the built environment industry.


Barbour ABI and AMA Research are both part of Infopro Digital.

The role of Consultancy Research Manager is within the AMA Research team. AMA Research is a leading specialist provider of market research and provides insight into the UK building and construction industry. We publish over 150 off-the-shelf market reports and forecast bulletins and provides research which goes beyond the more commonly available range of statistical and company information, delivering expert, informed commentary and in-depth market analysis.

AMA Research also offers consultancy services including market research projects and consumer and business surveys. Our clients include product manufacturers, major contractors, industry associations, service providers, distributors and retailers of construction products, government bodies, other consultancy companies and many others.

The AMA team works remotely but has a strong and supportive online network of communication. You will be required to attend a monthly team meeting at our offices in Cheshire Oaks (near Chester).


  • The Consultancy team manages a range of qualitative and quantitative research projects including market sizing, brand positioning and health checks, market scoping, acquisition due diligence, new product development research and testing, etc. These require a blend of primary research in the form of surveys, focus groups, depth interviews and trials, along with secondary research including data gathering and analysis, studies on company and product information, often requiring lateral thinking to create and test data sets and market profiles.
  • The Consultancy Research Manager should be adept at bringing these different techniques into play and balancing work across multiple projects and clients, so experience of project management is important. You’ll need to be comfortable setting up and managing several projects at a time and keeping them on track and delivering to the client within agreed timescales.
  • You will be required to manage and support freelance researchers in the delivery of projects.
