ABOUT THIS ROLE
We’re looking for a Senior Manager of Research to lead our research function at Capital One, reporting into our Head of Marketing.
As a company we have a mission to make credit simple, and to achieve this we constantly strive for a more human-centred business. The Research team is critical to this and to support teams across the business in ensuring human-insight is at the heart of every decision.
This role will lead the research team into its next evolution, strengthening our research operations and prioritising high-impact research which naturally combines a range of methodologies (qualitative and quantitative) to deliver rigorous insight across the organisation. The role requires someone who understands market insight, continuous CX programmes and UX research, offering an opportunity to develop holistic research leadership.
Success will look like strong partnerships across all disciplines in the organisation, at multiple levels. This will also be reflected in research helping to shape our long-term business and product strategy, whilst also supporting customer centric delivery near-term. This is all underpinned by leading a practice which delivers quality, well planned and managed research.
Looking after a research function in the financial sector comes with unique challenges. We’re a heavily regulated industry and we ensure we maintain the highest standards in how we plan, conduct and manage all our research work. Our success is measured through the success of our colleagues so it’s critical for us to build strong partnerships across the entire organisation as well as with colleagues in the US. It’s detailed, collaborative, customer-centred work.
WHAT YOU’LL DO
- Lead and grow a team of 7 world class researchers, focussing on talent development, mentoring, and building a strong team identity and culture.
- Build deep cross-functional relationships across the business (marketing, analytics, design, product management, and engineering) to enable the research team in identifying, prioritising, planning, and delivering on research initiatives.
- Support a collaborative team who strike a good balance between serving against the needs of our business partners and helping them upfront to make the most of research and insights
- Provide technical coaching on research best practice to your team, embedding a culture of continuous learning
- Operate a team which is enabled to work across strategic ‘horizontal’ research and in-depth, embedded UX research, navigating & adapting to the different ways of working
- Actively monitor and analyse research, data, and trends from internal sources, academic research, and industry published reports to discover and act on opportunities to drive our customer centricity agenda
- Actively contribute and elevate the customer voice through our formal reporting and informal channels, raising the profile of our work
- Improve research practice tooling and processes to create speed and efficiency, ultimately enabling your team to have impact. Manage relationships with our research partners within this.
- Own the processes associated with research, proactively managing risks & ensuring consistency across the team
