I’m a senior researcher with over 20 years’ experience delivering high-quality market, company, and industry research for startups, SMEs, market research companies and large organisations. I work across all commercial research environments, helping clients make confident, evidence-based decisions. Whether you need to understand your customers better, map competitors, size a market, or validate a new product, market, or business idea, I provide clear, practical insights you can actually use. What I do Market & Industry Research: I dig deep into industries to identify trends, opportunities, risks, and competitive dynamics. I’m industry-agnostic and have worked across a wide range of sectors and global regions. Competitor & Strategic Analysis: From landscape mapping to detailed competitor profiling, I identify current and emerging players, analyse positioning, and highlight gaps and opportunities. Company, Lead & Acquisition Sourcing: I regularly support clients by identifying companies in niche or hard-to-research sectors. This includes competitor discovery, investment and acquisition targets, and lead sourcing. I use multiple professional tools, manually verify findings, and deliver clean, well-structured results tailored to your criteria. Market Sizing (TAM / SAM / SOM): Market sizing is a core strength. I build robust TAM, SAM, and SOM models for startups and SMEs, clearly explaining assumptions, methodologies, and outputs so you can confidently use the results with investors or stakeholders. Qualitative Research & Expert Interviews: I conduct in-depth qualitative research, including expert recruitment and interviews for competitive intelligence and market insight. These projects deliver exclusive, human-led insights that go beyond what AI or desk research alone can uncover. Quantitative Research & Surveys: I design, run, and analyse consumer surveys and interviews to uncover customer needs, pain points, and behaviours, turning raw data into actionable insight and clear reporting. How I work Access to major industry databases and public statistical sources Transparent methodologies, with full sources, models, and workings provided Clear communication, regular updates, and collaborative check-ins Available for both short-term projects and long-term research partnerships If you’re looking for a reliable, detail-oriented researcher who can turn complex information into meaningful insight, I’d be happy to help.

I currently work as a freelance consultant and researcher helping private and public sector clients understand and make better decisions using social scientific insights. This could be something small, like understanding the impact of policy change on a particular business activity, or it could be a lengthier commitment, like a policy evaluation or piece of social research. In either case, I aim to bring a keen eye for detail and the necessary creativity to fully understand complex social, economic, and political problems. I have no shortage of experience in this regard. I gained a BA, Masters, and Doctorate in politics, political economy, and public health respectively from the University of Manchester, and have since lectured and undertaken research in a number of top UK and EU universities. Since making the decision to pursue a freelance career, that experience has deepened and widened, working with clients across the globe in various research capacities. In between these larger contracts, I write content and provide consultation. My areas of interest are broad, though health, politics, economics, current affairs are where I am most comfortable.

Hi there! I'm Greta Adorni, research consultant. Italian by origin, Londoner by heart, and I am looking for my next contract! My passion for qualitative research and my background in social sciences led me to become a consultant for the UK government, where I conducted research with diverse user groups, applying the Government Digital Standards to research processes. My skill set spans various research methodologies, including interviews, literature reviews, ethnographic research, and usability testing. After conducting research, I compile all findings and present insights through detailed reports and Google Slides presentations. I have extensive experience applying qualitative research methodologies across all stages of the product lifecycle, with a deep understanding of their strengths, weaknesses, and appropriate use cases. My clients include the Home Office, GDS, DEFRA, and the Cabinet Office. I have also worked with mental health organizations based in London such as the Institute of Psychoanalysis and With You. Recently, I have expanded my expertise to the private sector, working on market research projects for consultancies in Dubai such as Sunstream Research and Consulting. Additionally, I have experience as an AI consultant, working with Scale AI to revise prompts for large language models and with Fortell AI to analyze and synthethise data from avatars for research purposes. I also have experience publishing for academic journals; in fact, I published my master dissertation with the University of London. On Upwork, I have been supporting companies by presenting findings in reports and presentations, as well as conducting user and market research. Ready to collaborate on a project that makes a difference?

I help product and startup teams understand how real users experience their apps and websites. I achieve this through usability testing, user interviews, and structured feedback that actually gets acted on. I've run usability sessions and structured feedback tests for early-stage products, including a mobile reading app and an AI startup's QA process, consistently earning 5-star ratings for clarity, reliability, and depth of insight (not just "yes/no" answers — clients specifically call out my written feedback as useful). What I bring: - Structured usability testing (task-based, think-aloud, first-click) - Written and video feedback that's specific enough to act on, not vague impressions - Fast, clear communication: I flag issues the same day I find them, not at the end of a report - Background in web design, AI and content quality evaluation, which sharpens my eye for detail and consistency across sessions. I treat every project like it's the start of an ongoing relationship, not a one-off task. If you're running continuous research, iterating on a product, or need a reliable tester for recurring rounds, I'm set up to work that way.
