Name: Liam Higgins
Business: DJS Research Ltd
Job title: Research executive
Website: www.djsresearch.co.uk
Liam started with DJS in November 2011 as a telephone interviewer and his commitment and ability were immediately noticed. He was soon promoted to supervisor and led the international interviewing team within a year, a huge amount of responsibility for someone at the age of 21.
In 2013, Liam expressed a wish to develop his research career, and he joined our team of research executives mid-way through the same year.
In the last twelve months, Liam has made huge progress and is currently undertaking the MRS Advanced Certificate, a degree level qualification, on top of his full time role. His experience at the data collection phase of the market research process gives him a deep understanding of potential pitfalls and quick wins, and he has a solid grasp of the wider processes involved throughout all stages of any research project.
In the last year, Liam has learned to use this to his advantage, and is a methodical and proactive project manager, who’s been promoted twice. He has already worked on projects for a number of major international brands, including Ernst & Young, DuPont, Victrex and a leading supplier of medical devices. He recently travelled to Berlin for three days, single-handedly liaising with one of our largest clients in relation to a piece of complex qualitative research.
Liam’s hard-work and commitment make him a hugely important member of our team, and we expect him to continue to progress over the coming months and years.
Nominated by Elliot Simmonds, senior marketing executive at DJS Research Ltd.
