VP Custom Research Marketing Sciences

We’re looking for: 

  • Someone who is passionate about advanced analytics and won’t rest until they’ve evolved our toolkit to consistently be the most leading edge in the industry.  
  • Someone who can and wants to lead product and methodology focused R&D, including expansion beyond primary research – and will lead analytical design, where needed in primary research projects too. 
  • Someone who will be the senior technical expert for project teams. 
  • You – if you are excited about overseeing and executing a variety of advanced analytics – from conjoint to discreet-choice modeling, market segmentations, structural equation modeling, look-a-like modeling, market simulators and any other cool stuff that has yet to be discovered! 
  • Someone who is excellent at managing projects from start to end. 
  • Folks who can see data and tell a story. 
  • Someone who can lead and mentor a team on every stage of the research process – who is both generous as a leader and not afraid to roll up their sleeves and jump in. 
  • Someone with experience in pushing every aspect of the work to get the very best out of the process – leaving no stone unturned. 
  • Practitioners who love the work, and also want to build client relationships. 
  • Team players – we are stronger together – we like to work in groups.  
  • Curious minds, especially when it comes to finding solutions. 
  • Strategic brains – we’re problem solvers – harnessing the core question, bringing to life the research narrative, having an eye on the detail, and understanding the big picture are all musts. 
  • Strong communicators – written and verbal. Being able to find the right words to articulate the question, the story, and everything in between perfectly, is a really big deal for us. 
  • Someone with experience in any (or all) of our business areas – Media and Entertainment, Tech, Gaming and Lifestyle Brands – would be helpful, but if not, it’s not a deal breaker. 

You’re going to need to have:

  • At least 10 yrs experience in a related role at a research agency, an analytics firm, analytics or data science division of an ad agency or in a research and analytics capacity on the client side. 
  • A Bachelor’s degree in the Statistics, Social Sciences with a heavy quant emphasis or other specializations with quant leaning.  
  • Masters and Ph.D.s are great too! 
  • A pretty good handle on Microsoft Office. We use it a lot. 
  • A desire to live in LA or New York – that’s where we’ll be back to, when we can.
