ThroughVerve Vero- our AI-powered platform and consultancy ecosystem - we turn human truth into living simulations, giving teams the ability to bring their customers into any decision. The result is insight that's faster, more scalable, and grounded in real human understanding. The Role This is aclient-facing, mid-level insight leadership rolefocused on delivering AI-powered insight projects. You'll act as theday-to-day lead on projects, owning delivery from end to end - working closely with senior leads to shape direction, while managing junior team members to execute high-quality work.

Experience applying AI to insight workflows or automation is a plus, but not essential - curiosity and a willingness to learn matter most. Any technical experience (e.g. coding or working with APIs) is a bonus. Proactive, lateral thinker - able to solve problems, comfortable operating in ambiguity and helping shape structure as new approaches evolve. Work closely with specialist teams to test, refine and embed smarter, faster and more scalable tools into delivery. Identify opportunities to improve efficiency and scalability through AI-enabled approaches. Stay close to developments in AI, applying them pragmatically to client work. Lead, coach and develop Senior Consultants, Consultants and Associates, building confidence across client leadership and evolving capabilities. Set clear expectations that balance quality, efficiency and commercial discipline. Partner closely with Sales, Consultancy and Operational teams to deliver joined up client programmes. Shape Build Studio standards and best practice, acting as a visible role model for curiosity, adaptability and ownership. What We're Looking For: 5-8 years' experience. Commercial insight background (at a market research agency or client-side) is essential. Ability to translate briefs into clear, commercially impactful research programmes. Confidence operating as a senior client advisor. With experience leading complex delivery and building relationships. Strong commercial judgement across scoping, resourcing, and profitability. Curiosity about how AI can enhance insight delivery, with an openness to build capability (experience is a bonus, not essential). Ability to quickly learn new technical tools and ways of working.
