Research Director

A Research Director vacancy in a specialist pharmaceutical market research agency now exists. This company has a great reputation both within the UK and internationally for high quality research, particularly around the branding and marketing processes. Their qualitative expertise is very much rated, and although they work across both qual and quant, qualitative work accounts for around 75-80% of projects.

Due to ongoing business growth they are looking for a Research Director to join their team. The company is fantastically flexible about who they can bring on board and are happy to wrap a role around the right person.

The role of research director involves handling projects end to end within a team environment. You will be heavily involved with liaising with clients, looking to build on existing relationship, and you will oversee projects ensuring high quality delivery. Business development and line management opportunities are there should you wish to take them on, but essentially what we’re looking for is somebody with solid primary ad-hoc research skills.

We’re looking for somebody who is ambitious, strategic, and seeking an opportunity to play a major part in the development of a small to medium sized business. You will have excellent communication skills, and a track record of account management within market research. An excellent understanding of pharmaceutical market research methodologies is essential, and you will be particularly comfortable in qualitative research.
