Our commitment to innovation, creativity, and philanthropy drives us to explore new frontiers, create unforgettable experiences, and build a legacy that inspires future generations. ### **The Role** Beast Industries is expanding beyond its core consumer brands into new business lines - including subscription, tech, and additional new ventures - and this growth has increased the need for rigorous, fast-moving consumer research to inform how those businesses take shape.

This person will operate comfortably at both a tactical level (survey design, data analysis) and a strategic level (framing business problems, executive influence), and will act as a thought leader for the Insights function - proactively bringing new frameworks, methodologies, and perspectives that sharpen how the org understands its consumers. ### **What You'll Do** - Lead consumer research supporting new subscription, tech, and other emerging ventures, including categories without established customer data or precedent. - Translate ambiguous business questions from cross functional partners into clear, actionable research briefs and study designs. - Design and execute qualitative and quantitative research studies. - Leverage industry reports, syndicated data, and secondary research to drive clarity quickly, reserving custom primary research for questions that require it. - Write research briefs and RFPs; select, brief, and manage external research vendors and agencies. - Oversee multiple concurrent vendor-run studies, managing timelines, budgets, and quality across partners. - Manage consumer testing programs from planning through reporting. - Translate research findings into actionable recommendations and influence senior stakeholders' decisions, including when findings challenge existing assumptions. - Bring forward new research approaches, industry trends, and consumer thinking proactively, not just in response to requests. - Present insights clearly with a bias to action to cross-functional and executive stakeholders. - Collaborate closely with the existing Insights team to balance priorities across businesses. ### **What You'll Bring** - 6+ years in consumer insights or market research, with significant experience owning research end-to-end in a senior capacity. - Background in subscription/membership businesses, telecom, CPG, or insights consulting preferred - Demonstrated ability to operate at both a tactical level (survey design, data analysis) and a strategic level (framing business problems, executive presentation and influence). - A track record of acting as a thought leader, introducing new research methods, frameworks, or points of view that shaped how a business understood its customers. - Fluency in using industry/syndicated reports and secondary data sources to answer questions efficiently, alongside strong primary research design skills. - Experience designing research approaches for businesses with limited historical data or established consumer understanding - Experience managing multiple external research vendors simultaneously, including vendor selection, briefing, and performance management. - Strong qualitative and quantitative research background. - Ability to synthesize complex research into clear, executive-ready business recommendations. - Excellent stakeholder management and presentation skills. - Strong project management skills with the ability to run multiple concurrent research efforts. - Experience partnering with cross-functional teams including Marketing, Innovation, and Strategy. - Comfort operating in a fast-moving environment with evolving priorities. ### **Benefits** #### **The Perks, Why Work On the MrBeast Team** We are redefining what entertainment and storytelling look like at global scale.
