That’s where you come in.

We’re looking for a Market Insights Manager who can turn raw data, cultural trends, and traveller behaviours into compelling insights that guide strategy, fuel creativity, and keep Contiki ahead of the curve.

This is more than just a research role, it’s about storytelling, influence, and vision. You'll work closely with the Head of Brand and our global Contiki team to represent the voice of the traveller and help shape our brand, marketing, and product strategies.

Lead Research & Analysis

• Analyse and distil data into clear, meaningful insights
• Spot trends early and translate them into opportunities for brand, product, and marketing
• Present insights through reports, decks, and workshops that inspire action

Activate Insights Across the Business

Champion Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Influence business decisions with evidence and empathy

Trend Spotting & Innovation

• Maintain an evolving library of research, trends, and cultural commentary
• Explore new research tools, platforms, and methodologies
• Share forward-thinking insights that challenge assumptions and expand perspectives
  

What Success Looks Like

• A fully functioning insights ecosystem built from the ground up, including tools, dashboards, and reporting
• A business that moves faster and smarter thanks to proactive insights
• Campaigns and products that clearly align with what Gen Z wants not just what we think they want
• Clear stakeholder confidence in insights and a strong cross-functional partnership
• Contiki leading youth travel with curiosity, creativity, and cultural relevance
  
  

What You Bring

• Strong background in both quantitative and qualitative methods
• Experience launching or managing platforms like Qualtrics, Alchemer, or similar
• Confidence in turning data into actionable, emotionally resonant insights
• An eye for emerging trends and the ability to translate them into commercial or creative ideas
• Passion for youth culture, digital innovation, and global travel
• A collaborative, curious mindset ready to work closely with senior stakeholders across the business
