Centred in our London office, your team will span the end-to-end consumer experience across 40+ international markets, balancing our core business with 0-to-1 new bets. • Lead and develop talent: Hire, mentor, and grow a high-performing team of senior researchers, fostering an environment where they can deliver their best work. • Drive product strategy: Partner closely with Design, Product Management, and Strategy leaders to turn ambiguous user problems into insights that move core product metrics. • Build AI-native research systems: Architect and scale the tooling your team runs on—including prompt libraries, evaluation pipelines, and automated workflows—to multiply team leverage. • Stay close to the craft: Actively lead and build complex, multi-method research projects alongside your team rather than just reviewing their work from a distance. • Operationalise knowledge: Write clear documentation, onboard cross-functional teams to new research systems, and iterate on processes based on real feedback.
