• Experience in Market Research, Social Sciences, Statistics, or a related field.

• Experience in designing research for and conducting quantitative market/survey research with hard-to-reach business decision-makers.  

• Experience translating business needs and objectives into the appropriate research design and actionable insights.

• Experience translating complex concepts into actionable insights for non-technical stakeholders.

Even better if you have one or more of the following:

• An advanced degree in Market Research, Social Sciences (e.g., Psychology, Sociology, etc.) or Business (e.g., economics, MBA, etc.) or a certification in Market Research (UGA, etc.).

• Managed agency vendor relationships, including scoping, budgeting, data quality, and timeliness.

• Strong analytical and data interpretation skills.

• Ability to work independently and as part of a team.

• Experience in conducting research in the technology or telecoms category.
