Research Graduate Trainee

2 months ago

Oxford, United Kingdom Global Water Intelligence Full time

**Location**: Oxford OX1 1XX (hybrid working, with minimum three days in office)
**Salary**: £26,500 per year, with a six-month probationary period
**Contract**: Full time, Permanent, 37.5 hours per week

**Global Water Intelligence** is looking to hire inquisitive and resourceful Research Graduate Trainees to join our team. The objective is to develop the successful applicants into roles which best match their skills and ambitions. These roles include researchers, journalists, data analysts, and project managers. Relevant training will be provided, and there will be an opportunity to try different activities during the initial six-month training period. Trainees will develop a full picture of our business, with the chance to carve their own niche within our teams.

**Person requirements**:

- **Interviewing people**: If we are going to produce original content and events, we have to be good at drawing ideas and information out of people. That requires confident and intelligent staff who can network their way to talking to the right people and asking the right questions.
- **Writing and analysis**: Fewer people have time to read these days. It means that if you are going to write, you have to write well. That means being able to organise your thoughts and express them concisely and with lucidity. Don’t be deterred if English is not your first language. We can edit for English.
- **An eye for detail**: Our business depends on our ability to speak authoritatively, and we can’t do that if our work is riddled with errors.
- **Managing projects**: Most of what we do is a team effort, but getting great people to work well together is a skill in itself. We need people who are organised, empathetic communicators to bring it all together.
- **Seeing the visual angle**: People increasingly don’t consume information as text: they take it in visually. Feeding this kind of consumer is a challenge. It requires staff who can synthesise complex issues into simple graphics.
- **Collecting and managing data**: We are the main source of data for the international water industry. With that responsibility comes a number of important skills: a nose for the information that will make a difference, and a doggedness in pursuit of it; a dexterity in squeezing spreadsheets until they tell a story; a deep commitment to accuracy; and, an instinctual feeling for the reality that data purports to represent.
- **Seeing the bigger picture**: We want to grow our business, and that involves having people at the front line who can see the opportunity to do things better.
- **Commercial savvy**: We are in business to have an impact on the world, but we can only deliver that impact if we are a successful company. As the interface between clients and their markets, we curate content that focuses on strategic intelligence. Our mission is to make the world of water work better, and our products and events help shape the direction of the water sector.

Additionally, it is important that you are a quick learner, have an inquisitive mind, are prepared to take ownership of what you do, and be resourceful and flexible in your approach to work.

Foreign language skills are always looked on favourably, with Arabic, French, German and Turkish particularly welcome.

**Additional Information**:
GWI employees are enrolled on a company pension plan and receive a holiday allowance of 25 days per year. GWI also offers excellent international travel opportunities, with analysts regularly attending international water conferences including GWI’s Global Water Summit.

**Applicant instructions**:
**No agencies, please.
