A world where complexity is the only constant demands a new breed of company. Brave Bison is a media, marketing and technology company purpose built for the digital era. Our universe is made up of award-winning business arms Brave Bison, Engage, SocialChain and MTM. We’re a global collective who live and breathe digital, working with some of the boldest brands in the world to capitalise on the complexity that defines the modern marketing landscape.

Our mission is to cut through the chaos, make the complex simple and navigate a clear path to growth for our clients. That’s why we make it our mission to capitalise on complexity for our clients—across consultancy, capability and execution—by crafting dynamic digital solutions that outpace tomorrow’s challenges.

We’re a proudly diverse business comprised of deep specialists across media, marketing, training and technology. Although our skills, backgrounds and beliefs may differ, we are united by four core shared values:

• Run at change and challenge convention: We love to push the boundaries of what the world thinks is possible.
• Champion discovery: We go deep into our clients’ worlds and are always hungry to learn more about them, our specialisms and each other.
• Connected Clarity: We are focused in our collaboration — joining the right dots between our clients, our partners and our herd of experts to deliver agile solutions at speed and scale.
• Positive Encouragement: We want to make working with us the best part of someone’s day. We lift one another up, find the fun in the day to day and are committed to ensuring everyone belongs.

MTM is a specialist strategy and insights consultancy trusted by world-leading brands in media, entertainment, tech and telco. For nearly 20 years, MTM has been powering courageous decision making, by answering our clients’ toughest questions with a blend of services across consumer, cultural and commercial insight lenses.

The Role: MTM is currently offering an internship within the qualitative research team. The role is a 2‑3 month full time role paid at the London Living Wage (or the Real Living Wage if based in our Leeds office). We value candidates who are willing to get involved and work across a range of our key clients.

You would be helping with a range of tasks, including research, listening in to interviews / focus groups, analysis, report writing and participating in meetings. There is also the potential opportunity for the role to become permanent if successful, joining the team as a full‑time researcher following the internship.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone who is looking to develop a career in market research and in particular within the media and tech industry.
