Job Opportunity

We are seeking a highly skilled, technical Survey Programming Consultant to join our growing Global Programming & Hosting (P&H) team. In this hands-on role, you will be responsible for translating our clients' complex research requirements into highly functional, error-free online surveys.

As a consultant-level scripter, you will own the technical execution of the survey lifecycle, from initial scripting and logic testing to quality assurance, hosting, and final data delivery. You will work closely with Project Managers and client stakeholders to ensure our surveys are engaging, accessible, and optimized for maximum data quality.

What You'll Do

• Survey Scripting & Execution: Program and script complex, multi-country surveys using industry-leading programming platforms.
• Technical Consulting: Review client questionnaires and logic requirements, advising on best practices for survey design, routing, and user experience.
• Quality Assurance & Testing: Conduct rigorous QA testing on programmed surveys to ensure logical pathways, quotas, skip patterns, and device compatibility are flawless.
• Data Validation: Manage the backend survey data, ensuring data structures are clean and properly formatted for delivery (SPSS, Excel, CSV, etc.).
• Troubleshooting & Support: Quickly diagnose and resolve technical scripting bugs, link tracking issues, or respondent flow bottlenecks during live fieldwork.
• Stakeholder Collaboration: Partner directly with internal Project Managers and client-side researchers to clarify requirements and provide updates on project timelines.
• Data Scrubbing: Clean and scrub survey data to remove duplicate or fraudulent responses while preserving dataset integrity.
• Data Privacy & Compliance: Handle respondent data in line with confidentiality requirements, ensuring PII is scrubbed or anonymised before delivery.
