WORK WITH US

We’re looking for someone experienced, commercially sharp and collaborative—ready to lead projects end-to-end, grow accounts, and mentor the next wave of researchers while staying hands-on with the craft. If you have 6+ years’ experience in commercial research or consulting, bring strong quantitative expertise, and know how to design and deliver research that’s methodologically rigorous, creatively framed and commercially meaningful, we’d love to hear from you.

At Tgarage, we help brands navigate change through sharp insight, strategic thinking and creative energy. We work across FMCG, retail, services and lifestyle, using quantitative research to help clients make confident decisions, faster.

In this role, you’ll:

• Lead quantitative research projects from brief to debrief, ensuring quality, clarity and commercial impact
• Build trusted client partnerships, lead presentations and identify growth opportunities
• Mentor and develop junior team members, with 1–2 direct reports
• Contribute to proposals, account growth and new business conversations
• Bring a strategic lens to the data, connecting insights to broader business and brand decisions

You’re someone who can juggle multiple projects without losing sight of the detail, make complex ideas feel simple, and lift both the energy in the room and the quality of the work.

We’re looking for someone curious, capable and collaborative—ready to run projects end-to-end, work closely with clients, and continue building their expertise across both qualitative and quantitative research. If you have 5+ years’ experience in commercial research or consulting, with strong quant capability and meaningful qual exposure, we’d love to hear from you.

At Tgarage, we help brands navigate change through sharp insight, strategic thinking and creative energy. We work across FMCG, retail, services and lifestyle, blending qual and quant to help clients make confident, commercially meaningful decisions.

• Design research approaches, write questionnaires, discussion guides and proposals
• Oversee fieldwork, including groups, in-depth interviews and online communities
• Analyse data, develop insights and connect findings to clear, strategic recommendations
• Build trusted client relationships and communicate confidently with stakeholders
• Manage timelines, quality and delivery, working independently within a collaborative team

You’ll be someone who enjoys juggling multiple projects, stays close to the detail, and brings strong organisation and pride in producing high-quality work. You’re commercially aware, strategically minded, and comfortable talking to clients about brand, marketing and business context.

You’re a great fit if you:

• Have 5+ years’ experience in a commercial research or consulting role
• Bring strong quantitative expertise, alongside rich qualitative exposure
• Have experience in NPD research (concept testing, product evaluation) and/or behavioural-based research
• Are a confident communicator who builds trust with clients and teammates
