Market Research Intern

Consultants are staffed across industries early on, then specialize after a few years. Engagement teams range from three people to more than 200 on multi-year transformation programs. Training starts with a two-week bootcamp, then continues on the job.

Overview:

Fully remote research internship. Most work is desk research, online surveys and remote customer interviews. You can work from home anywhere in Canada. We have no office requirement. Normal working hours, Monday to Friday. Strong written English is important, since much of our work is async.

Responsibilities:

Prepare slide decks presenting research findings to the team. Maintain a research library in Notion or Google Drive. Research competitors' products, pricing and positioning and log it in a comparison sheet. Check data sources for accuracy and note where each number came from. Analyse survey results in Excel with pivot tables and charts. Design online surveys in Google Forms or Typeform and clean the responses. Track competitor social media, ads and product launches every week. Draft short recommendation notes based on what the data shows.

What we're looking for:

Based in Canada for the duration of the internship. Eligible to work in Canada. Currently enrolled in a bachelor's or master's degree, graduating 2028. Available for the full internship period. Must keep all research and company data confidential. Laptop, headset and a stable internet connection for remote interviews. Good Excel or Google Sheets skills, including pivot tables and charts. Curious, and careful about where numbers come from. Available 20 to 30 hours a week. Basic knowledge of research methods: surveys, sampling and questionnaire design.

Bonus points:

Knowledge of tools like Statista, Similarweb or Google Trends. Coursework in marketing research or consumer behaviour. Familiarity with Canva for report visuals.

What you get out of it:

How to size a market and defend your numbers. Running remote interviews and writing up findings clearly. Feedback from the strategy lead on every report you submit. You will see your research used in real pricing and launch decisions.
