‍Key Responsibilities:

• Desk research & trend analysis

• Qualitative fieldwork management
  Contacting suppliers and research participants, briefing research participants to support their engagement on the project, finding and reviewing research venues, as well as supporting the project team with fieldwork-specific organisation and staying on top of timelines.
  
  
• Research moderation - with support from senior team members
  You have probably observed plenty of research sessions and are great at taking notes and finding themes for reporting. Preferably - you had some experience moderating too, either online, offline or both. At KI, our research sessions are with children, so we take pride in working with and growing the talent for engaging, playful, immersive moderation.
  
  
• Survey writing
  You know how to write an engaging and empathetic survey. Even if you’ve not had a lot of experience in this, you understand survey flow and how to ask the right questions.
  
  
• Survey management & analysis
  Working with panels, cleaning the data and understanding the foundations of charting in Excel. Amazing (but not essential) if … you can work with or understand the principles of survey scripting & statistical analysis.
  
  
• Analysing data to craft a compelling & actionable story
  The way in which we report is always focused on audience needs and a strong understanding of our clients’ business. You will support the process of creating presentations as you synthetise learnings, visualise insights, craft stories and create frameworks to support decision making.
