Job description

I'm looking for a User Researcher to join a really exciting Central Government Content Development team that is going to be focused on Video Platforms and Social Media channels. I don't necessarily need someone that has experience in this, but any is a big bonus and of course enthusiasm or a personal interest in this space is even better.

Outside of that its the usual bits, a wide variety of research methods, helping with workshops, stakeholder influencing etc. This team will have a start up mode so someone that is comfortable working with ambiguity and lots of change will be ideal too.

Clearance wise this is a Security Cleared project, but we are able to consider you if your SC has lapsed. Unfortunately we are not able to consider anyone that has an expired SC or never been through.
