  • Able to communicate effectively with different stakeholders, from across the business. 
  • Enjoy working as part of a team, enjoy collaborating and spearhead open and honest communication. 

About you

First things first, as a disruptor in the global market research industry, we haven’t come this far without entrepreneurial spirit and a get-up-and-go attitude. So if you think we’ll see that in you, then you’re already halfway there. Here’s the rest of what we’d like you to bring to the table.

  • You have proven experience working in teams that have delivered client projects, at either tech companies or market research/insight agencies. 
  • You’re bursting at the seams with ideas and obsessed with delivery and project management. You’re excited about the next step in your career.
  • You really enjoy working with others to establish and maintain collaborative relationships, you value all feedback and you’re always eager to learn.
  • A strong working understanding of ad tech, and the role of DMPs, DSPs etc. would be ideal.
  • Excellent working knowledge of Asana or equivalent PM tools, and other collaborative tools is a must-have.

Our benefits

Great benefits make a big difference. Not just to employees, but to the whole vibe of a business. That’s why when you work for us, you’ll enjoy a full spectrum of generous perks, rewards and office benefits - all in line with Covid-19 guidelines of course.

Who we are

GWI was founded with the knowledge that understanding your audience is really important for business. When you know who you’re speaking to and why, you can create content and campaigns that stand out to the people that matter.

Through our global online survey, we gather data on the behaviour and perceptions of consumers across the world. This provides businesses with deep, actionable insights on their audience, revealed from data they trust.

It’s been going well, too. Since launching in 2009, we’ve become one of the UK’s fastest growing target audience companies. We’re not about to stop growing any time soon. As a business, we’re on a mission to re-engineer data-driven marketing, and we’re on the lookout for talented people to join us.

Diversity & Inclusion

Imagine if our data came from just one kind of person. We’d get a very nuanced view of the world. And we definitely wouldn’t have got off the ground as a business.

We’re so lucky to live in a society where differences are celebrated – so we’d expect nothing else from our teams. In fact, the GWI office is as diverse as our global data, it’s really important to us that it stays that way. That means whatever your race, religion, sexual orientation or gender, this is a place to feel at home, express yourself freely and make your mark.
