Manage and set expectations and goals for internal project teams while holding them accountable for success
Build strong client relationships, both on projects and from a business development perspective, liaising with Fortune 500 companies across industries
Ideal background
Prior hands-on survey research experience is a BIG plus, but even more important is a creative and strategic mindset when it comes to data
Strong writing skills are an absolute must as compelling and impactful storytelling is at the heart of our philosophy
