Market Research

Catalyst is our largest analytical unit focused on the optimisation and modernisation of our methods and processes by leveraging technology, automation, and visualisation. The team is also responsible for developing and executing our custom productised solutions (NextGen practice) that allow us to answer our clients' critical business questions faster. Our research is varied in terms of geographic footprint. Typically, work will either be multi-country, or focused on one of the America’s markets. For this reason, English and Spanish language skills are a must, and Portuguese is a plus. Additionally, there also a great deal of variety in terms of sectors – while the Research Associate will often be working with the big global FMCG players such as those in Consumer Finance, Home & Garden and Packaging, other key clients come from areas such as government organizations and trade associations. As such, work can be business-to-business or consumer focused.

We are looking for motivated self-starters who are excited by working in a diverse, international environment and believe that we can create a new centre of excellence in Mexico. We are passionate about learning, solving problems and making a difference. If you are an analytical thinker, passionate about data and driven by problem-solving, this might be the right opportunity.
