What is key to this massively happening and exciting agency is that they see insight through a creative, strategic and cultural lens. Their approach is culture first. They have incredible ongoing client relationships. They have grown whilst competitors have cut back; achieving over 20% growth last year and 2026 is looking super strong. Described as respectful, collaborative, supportive, grown up, they are proud and passionate about what they do.
They have an outstanding reputation across the board and in particular within the advertising and creative world. They work with some of the most awesome brands on big strategic questions. They are hugely respected and are a key part of the client conversation. Their work is consultative – clients don’t have standard briefs so every project is bespoke.
We are looking for an Insight Associate Director. FMCG and/or retail sector experience working on big brands would be ideal. Equally important is you as a person as well as your experience. You are likely to come from a creative or brand agency with strategy/planning/innovation experience or a qualitative research agency with a strong brand heritage. Whilst you will need to have hands on qualitative research experience, equally important is someone who is not confined to the research and who draws from culture, life experiences, interests.. As a person, we are looking for someone who is bold, sensitive, intuitive and with great communication skills, both amongst the team as well as externally with clients.
This role would be ideal for someone who wants to find a more inspiring home. If you are creatively driven and can already demonstrate sharp thinking (but perhaps wants to develop your strategic nous), this might be just the ticket. As our client said, they would love someone to join them who gets itchy feet if they spend too much time in the office and enjoys exploring, absorbing new situations and getting amongst it!
London based with 2 days/week in the office.
