**Execution**

- Own the delivery of proposal and pitch support on a timely basis, driving research quality that improves win rate and retention.

**Team & Collaboration**

- Manage stakeholder relationships independently, with excellent communication skills to understand research needs.

- Identify and prioritize key research questions and objectives in partnership with multiple stakeholders, including marketing and sales.

- Work collaboratively with stakeholders to influence the timing for collecting and delivering insights.

**Research & Best Practices**

- Conduct primarily quantitative and occasional qualitative research, selecting the appropriate methodology based on business needs and goals.

- Analyze quantitative data sets from data partners and execute surveys to uncover insights that inform content marketing initiatives.

- Translate research findings into clear, concise insights, turning complex information into effective storytelling through infographics, graphs, and other visuals.

- Manage time efficiently while balancing priorities, ensuring projects are well run, timely, and planned with clear tasks and milestones.

**What success looks like:**

- Within the first 30 days, you've ramped on Later's research tools, survey platforms, and stakeholder landscape across Sales, Strategy, and Account Services.

- By 90 days, you're independently fielding research requests, delivering surveys and insights that hold up under revenue-team deadlines.

- By 180 days, your research is a consistent input into pitch decks and SBRs, and stakeholders see you as a trusted differentiator against competitors.

- Within 12 months, you've measurably contributed to improved win rates and client retention through the quality and speed of your research support.

**What you bring:**

- 3+ years of relevant market research and analytics experience.

- Experience designing, executing, and analyzing quantitative and qualitative market research studies.

- Demonstrated experience applying statistical concepts and other quantitative methods to ensure rigor and validity of research, including execution of large-scale surveys.

- Experience working with survey platforms such as Typeform, SurveyMonkey, or Qualtrics.
