  • Substantial experience in the end-to-end delivery of complex social, behavioural, or market research projects, with a strong track record of delivering high-quality research outputs.
  • Knowledge and experience of behavioural insights and experiments, and/or strong understanding of qualitative research design and analysis.
  • Proficiency using tools such as SPSS, Python, R, or similar to manipulate, analyse, and visualise research data.
  • Ability to build strong relationships with internal and external stakeholders, and to translate policy needs into clear research plans.
  • Ability to evaluate, synthesise, and interpret evidence from a variety of sources, coming to logical conclusions and communicating this effectively to senior non-specialists.
What We Offer
  • A competitive salary of £45,614, plus a generous benefits package, including a comprehensive pension scheme, 30 days annual leave, and flexible working arrangements.
  • The opportunity to work on high-profile research projects, influencing policy decisions and contributing to the development of a Net Zero energy system.
