Throughout the scheme you’ll be expected to contribute to supporting the business to deliver high-impact results.  You will be assessed on your performance and will receive regular feedback.  By the end of the scheme we expect you to have a good foundation for working in social research and, subject to performance, you will move into a Research Executive role within BMG.
