BUCHAREST - MARKET RESEARCHER

We are opening a second branch for our Bucharest office. Please NOTE that this is a permanent job posting, and not for an isolated project. It is only available for Romanian residents. The open position is Market Researcher. Applicants need to understand that if recruited, they will be working on-site at our new offices in Bucharest. A fundamental requirement is that prospective applicants be adept at market research and also informed on the dynamics of the local market relevant to an expanding UK multi-national. The recruit will be responsible for and in charge of the market research files, which will for the first 4 months revolve around: • The challenges faced by a new corporate financial services firm trying to penetrate the European market, with focus on Romania, Hungary, Moldova, Bulgaria, and Ukraine. What are the prudent philosophies to adopt for optimal performance going into this market? • The factors (economic, social, political, and technological) that highlight Romania and its regional neighbors as potential for new ventures especially for corporations majoring in financial services as well as for manufacturing and allied conglomerates. How can a UK-based multi-national corporation best place itself at the center position in order to fully take advantage of and benefit from these factors discussed above? • Personnel. This means that the researcher might have to take on the responsibility of organizing the recruitment of the research office personnel. • Presentation of research findings to head office board. The researcher will be expected to be available on site from 9 AM to 5 PM. The wage rate is $30/hr. Please do not be discouraged by this remuneration. This salary will be renegotiated after the researcher is confirmed. Confirmation will be after a probation period of 4 months. This is just but the initial (first) stage in the recruitment procedure. There will be a more detailed, comprehensive, and personal approach after the initial shortlisting.
