In modern consultancy the work is fast-paced, demanding, varied, and highly satisfying. Our Research Executives interview senior business-people and stakeholders, research critical issues, draft sections of nationally-important reports, develop survey questionnaires, perform analyses, help run focus groups and workshops, help to develop bids, etc.
We’re not looking for specific backgrounds for these entry-level roles. We’re seeking a mix of high qualification and intelligence, together with a very high level of written and people skills. Degree specialism is not important but having at least an excellent first-degree is a minimum requirement and advanced degrees are desirable.
We are looking for those with a “can-do” approach: people who make it happen. You should be a multi-tasker, with excellent writing, and good number skills. Training is on-the-job under the tutelage of experienced senior researchers. Through mentoring and regular appraisals, we work with you to develop new skills, enhance strengths, and resolve or mitigate weaknesses.
Your career as a research consultant begins at the bottom but, for those who really want to learn and to build a life-long career, there are few better places to start than at Pye Tait Consulting.
Benefits
Location – work from home
We have a small central office in Harrogate for those who wish to come in on an ad-hoc basis, but all staff work remotely most of the time. There may be a need to travel as part of the job, and this sometimes also entails overnight stays.
