Overview

• Who we are
• Nature is an award-winning strategic insights advisory.
• We help organisations make confident decisions by delivering advice that is grounded in evidence, shaped by curiosity, and always focused on the outcome that matters.
• At its core, we help our clients grow, unlock their competitive advantage, and make important decisions with confidence.
• Our work helps our clients build great brands, launch and optimise products and services, and deliver exceptional experiences.
• At Nature, we make a point of staying true to the values that built our business and reputation.

• For our clients.
• Our people.
• Our communities.
• The role
• This is a role for someone with 3 to 5 years of experience in insights consulting and a strong quantitative foundation.
• At this level you are independently running projects, owning client relationships day to day, and starting to shape the quality and direction of the work.
• It is a hands-on role.
• You will be doing the analysis, building the story, and delivering the work.
• You will be a key point of contact for clients on your projects.
• With a clear and supportive team structure around you, you'll be upping your skills in the craft of insights work, and as part of your team, you'll be playing a central role with clients on their business challenges.
• You will work in a truly integrated business, collaborating across consulting, qualitative, marketing science and strategy, and alongside some of Australia's most recognised brands.
• You will also have access to Nurture, our annual learning and development program, and plenty of opportunities to get involved in B Corp and cultural initiatives.
• If this sounds like you, we’d love you to read on!
• Who you are
• A degree in a relevant field such as psychology, marketing, business or anthropology
• Someone who loves a challenge, gets energy from variety, and knows how to sprint when it matters
• Someone who actively seeks out new challenges, shares what they learn, and pushes their own thinking and the thinking of those around them
• A natural problem solver and project manager with genuine curiosity about how people think, feel and behave
• Developing your understanding of core methodologies including brand tracking, NPS and concept testing, and learning how to identify and match methodology to a project brief. Qualitative experience is a bonus, not a requirement
• We use Q as our analysis platform. You may already be skilled in it, but what matters most is a solid conceptual understanding of methodologies and stats and the ability to find the story in the data
• Curious about how AI is changing the craft and open to building that confidence as part of how you work

• Lead day to day client management including WIPs and requests

• Develop analysis plans and storyboard, keeping JTBD at the centre
• Deliver high quality, succinct reports tailored to the client's business objectives
