Who are we?
Beaufort Research is a leading market research company in Wales. We've been helping clients with quantitative and qualitative research to inform their decisions since 1984. We carry out a wide range of interesting and varied projects for government bodies, public organisations and businesses. These can involve helping clients develop policies or products, assessing the effectiveness of their advertising and communications and measuring customer satisfaction. Beaufort is a Company Partner of the Market Research Society, and all our staff belong to the MRS.
What's the role?
This is a maternity cover position running up to 12 months, ending in February 2027 - with the potential to become a permanent role depending on business needs and performance.
You'll be right at the heart of our client work. You'll take the lead on a variety of qualitative and quantitative projects, guiding them from initial brief all the way through to final delivery. One day you might be designing an online survey or shaping a discussion guide, and the next you could be moderating focus groups, interviewing client stakeholders or drafting findings for clients.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar

It searches the market for you

Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

Alongside managing projects day-to-day, you'll draft proposals, support business development, build strong client relationships, collaborate closely with colleagues and lend a hand wherever your skills can make a difference.
We're looking for someone with 5+ years' experience working across qualitative and quantitative methodologies, You'll be skilled at analysing and interpreting qualitative and quantitative data and distilling it into clear insights that help clients make confident, informed decisions. You'll also need to be experienced in carrying out a range of qualitative fieldwork approaches.
If you're curious, collaborative and naturally proactive, you'll fit right in. Welsh language skills are a bonus, but not essential.
