Are you passionate about understanding what drives human behaviour? And do you want to turn insights into opportunities for companies? We are looking for a curious colleague with a couple of years’ experience from the research industry to join Ipsos Denmark's qualitative team.

Qualitative research that makes a difference

Ipsos is one of the world's largest research and consultancy firms, working with global companies such as LEGO, TV 2, Novonesis, and Carlsberg. The role sits within an innovative team driven by curiosity and the ambition to challenge clients constructively. You will have access to advanced analysis methods, technologies and global centres of expertise.

In the Qualitative Department we help companies understand what matters to people. By combining ethnographic and digital research methods, we uncover the needs and tensions that shape people's everyday lives.

• Know how to identify patterns in data and have strong analytical skills
• Are an excellent communicator and like to tell a story
• Like project management and take ownership of your tasks
• Thrive in a collaborative and high paced environment

 

We imagine that you have a couple of years’ experience from working in market research with qualitative research methods. 

You might have experience within the following topics, and we encourage you to tell us about it if it is the case: Video production, AI powered qualitative analysis, Social listening research, Qualitative Research Panels/Communities, Design Thinking, Early Innovation.

What we offer

• Join Copenhagen’s best team – at least if you ask us. Expect talented colleagues, high ambitions, plenty of laughs, and endless opportunities to learn and grow.

• Shape the future of research – AI is rewriting the rules of our industry, and you’ll get hands-on experience with cutting-edge tools and methodologies long before they become the market standard.
