The Team:

Within TRUE Global Intelligence (TGI), we are passionate about using research, data and information to uncover insights that are critical to understanding people, sectors, the media, businesses and markets. Our clients not only look to us to help provide them with business-critical answers for today, but to use this knowledge to innovate and plan for the future.

We’re a friendly, hard-working and curious team of researchers and analysts from a wide range of backgrounds. We conceive and deliver both research, measurement and evaluation strategies for clients and teams across the agency.

Our mission is to put intelligence at the heart of all that the agency delivers. We work across the agency’s entire client portfolio, providing research, analytics and intelligence services focused on corporate reputation, brand marketing, patient awareness, stakeholder engagement, tech innovation, B2B sales and product launches.

The Role:

This role is all about making sense of social and digital data to help clients understand what's actually happening with their audiences and content. You'll be pulling together insights from multiple projects, cleaning data, running analysis through various social intelligence tools, and spotting trends that matter. The job involves building reports and presentations that tell a clear story with real recommendations clients can actually use, then presenting those findings to stakeholders and eventually clients themselves. You're managing multiple workstreams and making sure everything's consistent and accurate, while also being proactive about flagging any issues around timelines, budgets, or data quality. Essentially, you're the bridge between raw data and actionable insights, helping teams understand audience behaviour, platform opportunities, and what's emerging in the cultural landscape that could impact their strategies.

Building clear, client-ready reports and presentations with compelling narratives and actionable recommendations.

Managing data collection, cleaning and analysis across multiple projects and workstreams.
