RED C Research Group is Ireland and the UK’s fastest-growing and leading independent market research agency. We are an independent market research agency with a big passion for helping brands understand people.  From uncovering emerging trends to shaping product and communications strategy, we combine curiosity, creativity, and data-driven thinking to deliver insights that make a difference.

We focus on deep insight, decoding behaviour to uncover the human truths that drive decisions.

Our work spans a wide range of sectors, including Telecoms, FMCG, Financial Services, Retail, Transport, Government, and high-profile polling. We are a young, dynamic team committed to innovation and the highest quality standards, with a track record of sustained growth and client satisfaction.

Our culture is friendly, fast-paced, and supportive — perfect for people who love learning, asking questions, and collaborating on varied, interesting projects.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone with a genuine interest in market research and consumer behaviour who’s ready to build hands-on experience across both qualitative and quantitative projects.  You will play a pivotal role in delivering high-quality research projects for our clients. You will help manage studies from inception to completion, ensuring actionable insights and exceptional client service. You will work closely with senior researchers to support all stages of the project lifecycle — from designing questionnaires and discussion guides to analysing data and helping create compelling client reports and presentations.

What you will do

• Work with and support projects lead by research Directors and Associate Directors across a broad range of industry sectors and covering the public and private sector.
• Assist in the design and setup of research projects (quantitative surveys, qualitative interviews, focus groups, etc.
