HRW ho?
We are the market research partner of choice for healthcare, pharma and biotechbusinesses seeking a competitive edge, through scientifically grounded methodologies and perceptive insight. Not only do we work with world renowned giants of the healthcare industry, but we also partner with up and coming organisations. Whichever the client, our continuous quest to get beneath the surface and truly understand people’s behaviour and the decisions they make ensures we are the go-to partner for insight driven research. We’re considered thought leaders in our field, particularly when it comes to behavioural science. That’s part of the reason we’ve won so many awards for our work!
What else?
With offices in the US and UK, and our large network of established local fieldwork partners, we are equipped to follow wherever our clients’ needs take us, anywhere in the world. Our ethos is underpinned by our philosophy of accessing reality, and we are always striving to get as close to the truth as possible and proactively pursue multiple ways to help us achieve this. Aside from all this, we think we’re a great group of people to work with, with a hugely inclusive culture and genuine desire to have fun whilst we get things done!
Requirements
Purpose of the role:
Put simply the role of the AVP can be split into three key areas. To write proposals that catch the eye and capture the essence of a client’s project. To lead research projects to such a high standard that they generate repeat business in the future. To help with our new business efforts by showcasing the amazing work we do, attending BD meetings and always maintaining super strong client relationships. Sprinkle all that with the coaching and mentoring of your project team members you’ll become a key member of the US team as we grow HRW’s presence in the States.
In a nutshell, your role will be one of the key senior heads in a talented Research team. As such you’ll be involved in everything. Don’t worry though, we’ll do our part in developing you and so if you think your experience is light in certain areas, leave it to us and we’ll help support you every step along the way.
What you will be doing:
What would really make you stand out as a candidate?
Apart from everything we’ve outlined below, we’re looking for someone who is super organised. Someone who not only loves Research but also understands the importance of commercially developing a broad client base. It’s highly likely you’ll come from a background of insight driven research within the healthcare sector. Qualitative research is our life blood. That’s not to say we don’t do quantitative brilliantly well, but you have the best chance of success if your focus has been on qual. This is a chance to help define and develop an agency culture of inclusiveness, ambition and drive so if you demonstrate these attributes, we will remember you.
