Position Description & Expectations
Due to growth of our research team, GutCheck is seeking a Project Manager to help ensure audiences are feasible and our recruits go as smoothly as possible. This is your chance to dive into qualitative and quantitative market research, specifically as it relates to online testing of new products and ads. You’ll join a team of two highly efficient project managers who work alongside dozens of sales reps, client service reps, and researchers. Given that, this role is a big piece of our research operations.
Here’s what a typical week might look like:
- ~50% of your time: Provide expertise on audience recruiting & feasibility based on methodology, timing, specificity, and costs. This includes building relationships with online sample providers, determining the best approach to recruiting, and relaying that to our teams in sales, client service, and research
- ~30%: Sample management on studies while in field. This includes seeing your recruits through to the execution phase of research. Here, you’ll maintain your relationship with online sample providers to ensure we’re recruiting the right audience -- on time, within budget, and all quotas filled
- ~20%: You’ll have the opportunity to help streamline process across our workflow. This will include things like helping assign projects to our researchers in a systematic way, and optimizing our process around providing support to respondents during and after a study
You will report to our Senior Project Manager and will be responsible for helping drive team metrics related to the above tasks. Ultimately it’s your job to help enable high quality proposals that fits into GutCheck’s core positioning: the global online agile market research solution for quick consumer reads.
