Job Description

Want to see your work actually influence real business decisions—not just sit in a report? Join TRA and turn data into insights that shape what organisations do next.

Why TRA?

At TRA, we’re understanding people. We blend behavioural science, data, and marketing thinking to solve real-world problems for leading organisations across New Zealand, Australia, and beyond.

You’ll be joining a team of supportive, curious, down-to-earth thinkers who love asking big questions and digging into the “why” behind the data.

We’re also one of the most awarded insights agencies in the region—but what really matters is how we work day-to-day: collaboratively, creatively, and with genuine curiosity.

Requirements

This is a great next step if you’ve already got research experience and want more ownership, variety, and impact and want to move into a supportive team environment where you will get a personalised development path to make sure you will flourish here.

You’ll:

• Work closely with experienced researchers who’ll support your growth

• Run quantitative research projects from start to finish
• Help clients make smarter decisions with your recommendations

• Apply behavioural thinking and marketing context to your analysis

What you’ll bring

• 2–3 years’ experience in research, ideally in an agency environment

• A degree in something like stats, marketing, psychology, economics, or similar

• Confidence working with data and spotting patterns that matter

• The ability to explain insights clearly

• Curiosity about people and how they think, choose, and behave

Benefits

What you’ll get out of it

• Real responsibility early—your work will matter

• Ongoing learning and development at our academy program

• A supportive, collaborative team (no egos, just smart people)

• Interesting, meaningful projects across different industries

• Flexibility, team events, and a genuinely good culture

• Competitive salary and benefits

If you’re ready to move beyond just analysing data—and start influencing decisions—TRA is a great place to grow.
