The position will report into the Analytics Director, based in the UK. The project is in a ramp-up phase, which requires the support of a contractor to develop the dashboards.
The role will involve applying data management skills to primary quantitative market research data from online survey responses, working alongside our software development teams to project manage development of data dashboards. The dashboards are custom-built by the development team according to the project requirements. Key to the role will be an ability to translate technical information to the development team and also liaise with non-technical staff within the project team.
We are looking for an advanced user of MS Excel, with a good understanding of quantitative research-derived data (to sense check any errors/issues along with the project team). We are also looking for someone with experience of working alongside development or engineering staff, using project management tools such as Jira or Azure.
The Data Manager position is available as an outside IR-35 contractor role for an initial 3-6 months, with the option to extend.

Our custom research team partners with global pharmaceutical and biotech clients to enable them to solve marketing, brand, advertising and communications problems through a mixture of innovative qualitative and quantitative market research techniques.
Your primary role:
As a Data Manager, you will support the Analytics Director and project Directors to manage the development and delivery of dashboards for our client, based on primary quantitative data. You will liaise with our in-house developers as well as our researchers and data collection and data processing teams. You will also support the development of a data warehousing set up for the project on an ongoing basis.
Key responsibilities will include:
Project management of the development teams using Jira. Ensuring that delivery timelines are adhered to.
Initial reviewing of dashboards and source data to identify any errors or issues with formatting in Excel.
Liaising with the Data Collection and Data Processing teams both in house and offshore, to ensure data is provided in the appropriate format for analysis.
Responding to day-to-day statistical questions in support of the Analytics Director (e.g. database design, sample design, sample size, selection of appropriate statistical tests and methodologies)
Supporting Directors and more senior researchers in their client facing activities
