Established in 2000, the Social Research Centre has developed a reputation as a ‘centre for excellence’ in the provision of social research services to government and academic institutions. With annual revenue approaching $10 million our sustained growth means we are now looking to make various appointments:
Associate Research Director
We are looking for someone with excellent quantitative research skills and substantial experience in the design and conduct of complex CATI surveys, including longitudinal surveys. Superior analytical and report writing abilities are an essential requirement as is a proven track record in client management and the ability to lead a small team of researchers. The ideal candidate will have formal qualifications in a relevant discipline and extensive practical experience.
Senior Researcher
The ideal candidate will have at least five years social research experience, including experience in a CATI environment. We are looking to appoint someone to work as part of a research team under the guidance of an Associate Research Director / Principal Research Adviser. The successful person will have excellent project management, data handling and client management skills and will be very capable in the areas of questionnaire design, data analysis and reporting.
The role will require this person to manage their own projects as well as work as part of a team on larger, ongoing studies.
Senior Data Analyst
The Social Research Centre is looking to boost its Data Processing section by recruiting a Senior Data Analyst. This person will work directly to the Manager, Data Processing and will be responsible for the production and support of high quality data outputs from various data collection methods.
The ideal applicant will have a keen eye for detail and a real focus on producing quality outputs. Applicants must have extensive experience in social or market research and a relevant tertiary qualification is desirable. Experience with SPSS is essential, and exposure to similar statistical analysis packages such as SAS an advantage.
Attractive salary package, commensurate with skills and experience, will be negotiated.
