Zealant Consulting Group

About the Role
We're hiring an Intelligence Operative to be the connective tissue between what clients need and what product delivers. You'll run engagements end-to-end, keep quality high under pressure, and spot the moments where a project can become a partnership.
What You'll Actually DoClient Ownership &amp; Delivery
<ul>
<li>Own assigned client accounts from brief to final delivery — not just coordinate, actually lead.</li>
<li>Be the point of contact clients trust: proactive, clear, and on top of every moving part.</li>
<li>Communicate findings in ways that connect to business action, not just summarize the data.</li>
<li>Build relationships that create room for expansion through excellent work, not pitching.</li>
</ul>
Research Execution &amp; Quality
<ul>
<li>Lead day-to-day research planning, analysis, and synthesis across active engagements.</li>
<li>Work with analysts and research teams to ensure methodological rigor and sharp outputs.</li>
<li>Bring structure to ambiguous briefs — turn a messy client ask into a research question worth answering.</li>
<li>Hold deliverables to Consuma's quality standards before anything goes to a client.</li>
</ul>
Who We Think This Is For
Experience: 2+ years in consumer insights, market research, brand strategy, consulting, or a related field.
You're likely coming from:
<ul>
<li>A research firm (Nielsen, Kantar, Ipsos, GfK, MRG).</li>
<li>An agency planning or strategy team.</li>
<li>A brand-side insights role at a major consumer company.</li>
<li>A boutique consulting or intelligence practice.</li>
</ul>
You Probably
<ul>
<li>Have run research engagements end-to-end — not just executed a slice of someone else's project.</li>
<li>Can take a vague brief and push back on it intelligently before the work begins.</li>
<li>Are strong analytically and even stronger at synthesis — you know the insight isn't the data, it's what the data means.</li>
<li>Write and present clearly, with a point of view, not just a summary.</li>
<li>Are comfortable being the most senior person in the room on a client call.</li>
</ul>
This Role Is Probably Not For You If
<ul>
<li>You need a fully scoped project to get started.</li>
<li>You're more comfortable executing than owning.</li>
<li>You'd rather someone else handle the client relationship while you do the analysis.</li>
</ul>
