I’m a senior research manager with 8+ years’ experience delivering mixed-method insight across customer experience (CX), employee experience (EX), brand and market research. I specialise in designing surveys, analysing quant + qual data, and turning messy findings into clear, executive-ready recommendations. I’ve delivered research and stakeholder-ready reporting for teams at Promising Outcomes, Perceptyx, YouGov, Edelman Data & Intelligence, and Hall & Partners - often under tight timelines, with high standards for QA and clarity. What I deliver (not just “analysis”) Survey design that answers the real question (questionnaire, logic, scales, sampling input) Clean, defensible outputs (QA checks, consistency, charts that don’t mislead) Insight that’s usable (so-what, now-what, priorities, and implications) Decks people actually read (structured narrative + executive summary + sharp visuals) Typical projects I’m hired for Employee engagement or pulse survey reporting (EX) Customer feedback / CX surveys, drivers, and segmentation Competitive scans + secondary research for strategy teams Quant + qual synthesis into a single story “We need this turned into a client-ready PowerPoint fast” Tools & ways of working I’m comfortable working with your templates, your KPIs, and your stakeholder expectations. I’m also experienced using AI to improve research efficiency without compromising rigour. If you want research that’s clear, strategic, and decision-ready, send me a message with your objective and timeline.

Herne Bay, United Kingdom
I am a qualitative researcher with over ten years of experience working with complex human data, across NHS services, addiction recovery, and private practice. My background is in psychology and mental health, which means I bring genuine depth to research involving human behaviour, lived experience, and sensitive topics. My work has always involved identifying patterns in complex information, synthesising findings clearly, and communicating insights to support decision-making. I have contributed to formal research in NHS settings, including leading a study examining predictors of inpatient length of stay across multiple sites, and I have recently completed freelance research support work including institutional mapping and outreach strategy for a fellowship application. I am particularly well suited to projects involving sensitive subject matter, interview-based research, or data that requires careful interpretation rather than just processing. Available for freelance and project-based work.
