- Checking data tables and overall data quality;
- Helping prepare presentations for clients, thinking about how we can build insightful narratives from our datasets and deliver our conclusions in a visually engaging way;
- Acting as a key point of contact with suppliers and internal stakeholders (for example, our Data Processing, Finance, fieldwork, online scripters, coders, etc.)

**What do I need to bring with me?**
- A genuine interest in quantitative market research and passion for media, advertising and brand strategy
- A natural curiosity about the world we live in and an intrigue for human behaviour
- Meticulous attention to detail - you thrive in the details to deliver accurate outputs
