  • A consultative problem-solving approach, with the ability to guide customers toward solutions
  • Understanding of UX research’s impact on business decisions, with the ability to help customers demonstrate research ROI

  • Familiarity with remote research and usability testing platforms ([REDACTED], [REDACTED], or similar tools)
  • Strong communication, storytelling, and presentation skills, with the ability to simplify complex research concepts for diverse audiences
  • Ability to coach and educate customers on research methodologies, best practices, and platform usage
  • Excellent organizational and time-management skills, capable of handling multiple projects simultaneously
  • Collaborative mindset, with the ability to work effectively with customers, internal teams, and cross-functional stakeholders
  • Comfortable in a fast-paced consulting environment, balancing multiple priorities and customer engagements
  • Adaptable and proactive, willing to learn, iterate, and improve consulting approaches over time
