We build Media Experiences that connect a client’s brand with the public in the context of where they are, through the content they pay attention to.As others attempt, and struggle, to integrate and simplify their offer around client needs, Havas Group continue to pioneer an integrated model within our ‘Village’ construct, bringing together media, creative, data, strategy, Cx and research in one package, with one shared operating system, platform and language. This means we can field our very best people and change our shape according to the needs of each client and brief we work with.# Havas Media ManifestoHavas exists to deliver brilliant media, content and data solutions for our clients. We’re constantly looking for creative ways to reach the people that matter to our clients’ businesses. Our restless nature means that we continually challenge what has been done before; question what is being asked of us; and innovate at every opportunity.

We believe in sometimes taking a healthy amount of risks, knowing that we are supported no matter what the outcome.# The RoleThis role will see the successful candidate work on one of the biggest, global Havas clients. With a long-standing relationship, we have built an amazing level of trust and understanding, as we continue to deliver fresh and innovative thinking in the fast-evolving, ‘mobility’ sector. Within Havas Media Group, our support of Converged for our client is exemplary and often held up as best practice.To maintain and build on this great track record, we are looking for a Research Executive to join us in the global (London) hub, working specifically with the Strategy Partner across all three brands for this global automotive client.

As such, we are committed to helping you achieve this through tailored training and active mentoring from our client and wider Havas team colleagues across the world.# Role Responsibilities* **Supporting central client relationships** It is of critical importance that the Havas Hub team has strong, trust-based relationships with key client stakeholders. The intelligence and strategy team, within the overall client servicing unit, is often core to client requests, readily available to help supply critical audience and media detail with speed and detail.* **Intelligence gathering and analysis** The core of the role is supporting the Strategy Partner (and others), taking command quickly of the key intelligence and insight tools that we utilize to shape clear, strongly reasoned and evidenced responses for launches/campaigns. Whilst naturally the Senior Research Executive will be fully conversant with standard agency tools such as TGI, GWI and YouGov, we would expect a more inquisitive approach to intelligence gathering and synthesis that embraces other sources such as Google Trends, Social Listening, following key commentators across socials, trend sources etc.* **Internal champion for our research/intelligence tools** Internally, for our Havas team members, you will be the leader in not only using and applying our key tools, but also democratizing their usage. Working with the Strategy Partner, the Senior Research Executive will help create compelling, internal training programmes to upskill all team members, whilst remaining the go-to for expertise.* **Contributing to thought leadership** To keep us front of mind and continually challenging the status quo, together with the global team in London and other Hubs (e.g. European team in Frankfurt), we create a wealth of useful content such as competitive reports, market POVs, newsletters, new media opportunities, trend reports. The Senior Research Executive will play an important role in the delivery of these key client experience elements.# Behaviours & Skills* **Perspective** – Ability to identify the problem before rushing straight to ‘an answer’. To have a strong, informed and intuitive point of view quickly. Contribute to thought leadership etc with thoughts and ideas that are ‘theirs’ – we don’t want corporate reps, we want interesting people!* **Responsibility** – A ‘grown up’ with passion for the work over ownership of it. You will have a can-do attitude and be able to get on with different types of people. Being calm under pressure is vital.* **Collaboration** – The role will suit a collaborator not a lone thinker – someone who can connect with the team around them, motivate this team around the task and help deliver excellent all round solutions.* **Empathy** – To display empathy with the public, culture and our brands – it is our job to be the ‘consumer in the room’ and to respect and look after their views versus brand promises.* **Good writing and story-telling skills** – Can develop a thread or thought in a body of work, how we deliver thinking in a clear, provocative but positive way is central to our raison d’etre.* **Strong analytical skills –** Comfortable working with data, from pivot table and Excel formulas to using dashboards and effectively extract necessary information to write insightful presentations.* **Curiosity** – A lateral thinker, spotting creative solutions and unconstrained by rigid media siloes. Restlessness and a healthy degree of constructive cynicism – our industry is in constant beta test as technology and consumers evolve, strategy leads need to help identify new opportunities.* **Presence** – Genuine, honest, open but that can bring gravitas, energy and personality to a room – a person that people can trust and believe in and be inspired by. A team player, not a lone player, inspiring but open and embracing.* **Knowledge** – Experienced in the world of communications planning – understanding the world in which we operate as a media agency and the competitive media landscape we sit within.* **Excellence** – Track record as a self-reliant player who can be trusted to deliver to a high standard, simply, comprehensively and within deadlines and showing organizational
