Work collaboratively with strategy and quantitative colleagues on integrated projects. Operate with a high degree of autonomy in a fully remote environment. Note: The consultancy has strong quantitative capability; however, this hire is qualitative-first , with mixed-method exposure welcomed but not essential. Candidate Profile Experience in qualitative research, ideally agency-side Gaming experience strongly preferred; entertainment/media experience plus authentic gaming passion also considered. Operating at Associate Director level or ready to step into an emerging Director role. Strong strategic thinker with clear planning and brand sensibility. Excellent writer and storyteller.
