What if behavioural science didn’t stop at the research deck?
This fast-growing consultancy and technology business is rethinking how organisations understand customers, identify behavioural barriers and turn insight into action.
Blending commercially applied behavioural science, rigorous research and AI-powered technology, they work with major enterprise brands across financial services, FMCG, retail, e-commerce and beyond.
They’re now looking for a Senior Behavioural Scientist to play a pivotal role in the next stage of their growth.
The opportunity
This is a senior, hands-on consulting role for someone who loves getting underneath a client problem.
You’ll work closely with senior marketing and business leaders to uncover what is really driving behaviour, design the right research response and translate evidence into clear behavioural interventions, communications and action.
Rather than research ending with recommendations, you’ll help take the thinking through to execution – connecting customer understanding with prioritisation, messaging, content and behaviour change.
You’ll be involved in:
- Diagnosing complex customer and commercial challenges
- Designing robust quantitative, qualitative and mixed-method research
- Leading behavioural science and customer insight projects end-to-end
- Interpreting research and technology-generated outputs with depth and rigour
- Identifying barriers, motivations, emotional territories and behavioural opportunities
- Turning insight into practical interventions and strategic recommendations
- Presenting to senior clients and managing multiple relationships and projects
- Working closely with engineering, analytics, research and marketing specialists
- Contributing commercially through relationships, opportunities and new business
About you
You’re an experienced behavioural scientist,
researcher or consultant with deep expertise in consumer behaviour and commercially applied behavioural science.
You’ll bring strong research design capability – particularly quantitative – alongside the ability to work across qualitative thinking when required.
Just as importantly, you’re someone who can wear the consulting hat: asking the difficult questions, challenging the brief and helping clients understand the problem they actually need to solve.
You’ll be:
- Highly credible and confident with senior clients
- Comfortable staying close to delivery and being hands-on with the work
- Obsessed with depth, quality and understanding customer pain points
- Commercially minded, with an existing network or appetite for business development
- Organised enough to juggle multiple complex client engagements
- Curious about AI and already using – or genuinely excited to embrace – new AI tools
This is a rare prospect to join an entrepreneurial business sitting at the intersection of behavioural science, consulting, AI and marketing technology – and help shape what that next generation of insight and behaviour change looks like.
