Market researcher needed for a project in Edinburgh

ECigIntelligence  is a news-led, analytical, and independent resource, focused on tracking regulatory change and market intelligence for the e-cigarette and tobacco-alternatives sector.

We are looking for market researchers located in Scotland (preferably Edinburgh) to carry out research on the current state of the e-cig industry in the country for November 2016. This is a 2 weeks project with flexible timing that can be combined with studies or another job.

ECigIntelligence will be doing updates of the state of the e-cig industry in the UK, and would like to have people physically there who can do mini-projects/tasks on an ad-hoc basis (flexibility is needed). We would need help with this first consultancy project and then in the future other projects.

Role

The tasks involved will likely include:
Physical visits to vape stores in the city to have conversations with people involved in the industry, as well as to collect offline pricing data to be used in our report and other qualitative data (i.e. photos)
Country specific online research into the electronic cigarette industry
Other in-country tasks may come up depending on events affecting the e-cig industry in the country
Profile
Energy, enthusiasm and interpersonal skills
