Role Description This position is for self-employed contract work only. All work is coordinated remotely from anywhere in Cameroon. Experience in market research, data estimates/manipulation, and in-depth interviews are key. Euromonitor International seeks a self-employed researcher to interview, analyse and report on multiple industries in Cameroon. This role will suit a self-starting individual, who is looking for the flexibility of working from home. You will enjoy the challenge of reporting on consumer markets for a leading player in strategy research, globally. Industry researchers are employed on an annual contract basis and work with commissioners based in our London office. Our research addresses the following type of questions to deliver insightful business intelligence: - How much chocolate was sold in Cameroon in 2018? Why did sales increase/decline over the previous year? - What companies are the leading players in the pet care market? What share of sales is held by the leading brands? - Why is company X doing better than company Y? What strategy is being employed and how is this supported operationally? 70% of your time will be dedicated to conducting secondary research and updating the database for several industries including packaged foods and pet foods. The remaining will focus on primary research (interviews with industry opinion leaders). You will be working with very granular databases and while advanced data skills are not required, you must enjoy estimating data from quantitative and qualitative insights. On primary research, success relies on researchers’ proactivity to recruit and secure interviews with the right contacts, and their ability to uncover key data and insights via open discussions.
