YOUR CHALLENGE

The BUFFL Delivery Team consists of Strategic Decision Experts and Research Designers who leverage a step-by-step innovation methodology and an intuitive research platform to deliver short, iterative research projects (1-3 weeks) to help our key customers make data-driven business decisions.

As a Senior Research Designer, you are able to scope both simple and complex initiatives and to select the right validation experiments. Working autonomously or in tandem with our Strategic Decision Experts to ensure the client’s ambitions fit with the BUFFL methodology, your job is to translate the client’s ambition into well-scoped research by asking the right (unbiased) questions to our consumer (or B2B) panel.

To that end, your first objective is always to clarify the project context and scope, decide on fail and success criteria and guide your client towards the relevant research approach; after which you translate it into one or more short (<15 question) surveys. The data you collect is accessible in real-time and collected in a matter of days. The BUFFL research platform was custom built to allow intuitive analysis based on proven methodology and allows for research specialists and DIY customers to easily assess and compare the consumer/B2B insights collected via the BUFFL platform. Where your analytical expertise is required, you focus on providing easily comprehensible conclusions that go beyond mere learnings – you focus on actionable insights that enable your client to make decisions in their innovation projects.

YOUR SUPERPOWERS

• Understanding the real need: even if your customer is unable to voice them spontaneously, you are capable to clearly scope the research and link it back to their most pressing strategic assumptions..
• A research question specialist: you know exactly which research question to ask our community to come up with the relevant insights. You understand that each and every word can bring an important nuance.
• Turning data into insights: you know that collecting data is only half the work and that translating them into information that people can understand and can use to take actions (make decisions) is just as important.
• A true analyst: you excel at recognizing patterns and you love going through qualitative and quantitative data you collect from our community. With a clear project scope and success & fail criteria in mind, you are able to connect the dots, recognize the patterns and compile relevant conclusions based on the data.
• A team player: you thrive when opportunities are brought to your attention. You love sparring with your peers in order to come up with the best possible next step in the project of your customer.
• A problem solver: you roll up your sleeves and (pro-actively activate the relevant expert to) get the job done.
• A communicator: you are able to tell a powerful (but data driven!) story based on research insights and able to communicate fluently in Dutch and English, French is a plus.
• An owner: you can lead the way, take initiative and are accountable for the quality and timeliness of your work.
• An expert in market research (5+ years of relevant experience) in a client-facing role

WHY BUFFL?

• We build for long term success with a sustainable and agile mindset: we invest in long-term relationships
