Fuel growth, shape strategy, and uncover what truly drives people.
About the Intelligence Team:
Our vision is simple yet powerful: unlocking growth and accelerating impact through audience-first intelligence .
At MVF, the Intelligence Team transforms data into opportunity. We deliver real-time intelligence that empowers our brands to act fast, think smart, and lead with confidence. By diving deep into markets, trends, and behaviours, we uncover insights that shape strategy, strengthen brand authority, and open new revenue streams. Every insight we generate fuels better decisions – embedding intelligence across MVF and ensuring every move we make is data-driven and impact-focused.
The Role:
As a Research Executive, you’ll be at the heart of that mission – helping turn complex questions into compelling insights that make a real difference. If you\’re someone who’s fascinated by what makes people tick and wants to use that curiosity to drive commercial success, this is your role.
What You’ll Be Doing:

Designing and delivering mixed-method research (surveys, polls, interviews, focus groups) to explore consumer motivations, competitive dynamics, and market shifts.
Leading product- and brand-focused research projects from initial scoping through to stakeholder presentation.
Collaborating closely with editorial, brand, and commercial teams to embed intelligence in every stage of decision-making.
Maintaining and evolving our research databases to ensure intelligence is accessible and actionable across the business.
Fact-checking and validating content to ensure accuracy and authority.
Contributing to high-impact research campaigns that secure coverage in leading media outlets like Forbes, BBC, and Fox News.
Continuously scanning the horizon for new research techniques, trends, and behavioural insights.

What we\’re offering you:

Summer Fridays
Competitive holiday benefits – 25 days a year paid holiday, plus 8 bank holidays (increases 1 day a year up to 30 days)
Hybrid working – 3 days a week in the office
Closed for Christmas holidays
Work from anywhere for 2 weeks a year

What Success Looks Like:

Delivering audience-first intelligence that drives real growth and strategy.
Helping MVF’s brands become more authoritative, trusted, and insight-led.
Communicating findings in ways that inspire action across the business.
Shaping how teams across MVF think about their audiences, products, and opportunities.

About You:
You’re a natural question-asker. You don’t just want to know what – you need to know why .
You’ll thrive here if you:

Are energised by audience behaviour and passionate about uncovering what drives decision-making.
See research as a commercial tool – not just to understand, but to act.
Are confident owning projects, proposing new ideas, and working autonomously.
Bring a sharp analytical eye, excellent communication skills, and a love for turning insight into impact.
Are excited to grow in a fast-moving environment where your work has clear, measurable outcomes.
