    Your new role

    We’re excited to announce that we’re looking for a Researcher/Research Executive to join our Insight team. The Insight team provide performance management, customer insight, business insight and research for Abri. You’ll be based either in our Eastleigh or Yeovil offices and you’ll work in an agile manner covering all locations, with the opportunity to balance office days with working from home.

    You will use quantitative and qualitative research methods and analysis to understand customers, colleagues and our business. You will support the embedding of solutions based on the insight you deliver.

    ​​​​​​​You’ll have experience working within insight, data analytics and/or research. You’ll have a good grounding in applying quantitative research methodologies; from taking a brief, designing questionnaires, coding open ended questions to analysing data sets. You’ll have an objective approach and excellent written and verbal communications skills.

    To get you started, this role will be all about our existing surveys. Understanding how, what, when and why we survey our customers and helping us to manage these processes. You will use your excellent eye for detail and Excel skills to pull out data, check for accuracy and present it back to our teams to act on. Next steps will be plenty of opportunities to work on different quantitative and qualitative research projects, from secondary research to focus groups, and hone your skills across a wide variety of research techniques.

    If this sounds like you, apply now so you don’t miss out on the opportunity to join a thriving and progressive Insight team!

    ​​​​​​​Be yourself

    Abri is committed to promoting an inclusive culture. We want our colleagues to bring their individual differences, life experiences and knowledge into the workplace and we welcome their contribution to our amazing company. Everyone is different, everyone is unique.

    About us

    We’re Abri, a housing association based in the south of England. One of the largest in fact. We’ve got 35,000 homes and 1,500 colleagues. And if all our 80,000 residents lived in the same place, we’d have a town roughly the size of Guildford.

    We’re a passionate bunch. We think we can make a real difference. Homelessness, poverty, inequality, a lack of affordable housing. They’re all linked. They’re issues that affect so many, young and old alike. And we don’t think that’s right. We want to give people the chance to dream big and be who they want to be. Homes are at the heart of everybody’s lives. And we exist to help make good homes, and good lives a reality for everyone.

    About you

    We’ve all got different backgrounds, strengths and experiences. But we share the same values. It’s these shared values that bring us together as one team.

    Our colleagues embrace these every day. Be the difference to our customers and colleagues, always curious and look for better solutions, achieve together by working in partnership with others, own it openly through working with others in an open and honest way, and finally embrace possibility and see changes and challenges as welcomed opportunities.

    If you share our values and want to make a real difference in the world, you’re on to a winner and we’d love to hear from you!

    Interviews will be held on Monday 31st October.
