The posting

A little about us…

Knit is the AI-native consumer research platform helping brands automate and accelerate primary research. With our Researcher-Driven AI, we’ve condensed the entire quant + qual research process from weeks into days (sometimes hours!) for 50+ enterprise brands — including Amazon, T-Mobile, Mars, NASCAR, and more. We’re on a mission to scale and democratize world-class research. From survey generation to stakeholder-ready reports, our platform is redefining how insights teams operate — and we need your help to push the limits of what’s possible.

Overview

The purpose of the Research Manager role is to ensure Knit customers successfully achieve their desired research outcomes through their partnerships with Knit. By owning and supporting customer relationships, getting deeply engrained in customer research needs, and driving high-quality project deliverables, the Research Manager’s impact is ultimately measured by positive customer retention.

Responsibilities | What you will own...

The research function is a primary contributor to Knit’s shared business objectives of customer retention and upsells, ultimately measured by Net Revenue Retention (NRR) in addition to supporting successful Pilot to Subscription Conversions for acquiring new business.

The levers the Research Director role owns to influence these key business objectives are:

  • Research Success → Ensuring Knit Customers successfully achieve their desired research outcomes through their projects with Knit, measured by successfully achieving Research Objectives and delivering on Knit’s Quality & Speed service-level agreements (SLA’s)

Primary responsibilities of this role:

  • Serving as the dedicated research lead for all customers’ projects (on assigned accounts) and serving as the ultimate accountable part for research project success
  • Driving and documenting in-depth project scoping to uncover a deep understanding of research objectives and project context to set up project success
  • Demonstrate a growth mindset as a solutions architect for customers, educating them on Knit’s research capabilities, consulting with them to adjust for fringe requirements, and proposing solutions to maximize project success - escalating to Research Directors when needs exceed capabilities
  • Escalating needs to Research Directors to support troubleshooting when increased risk for project viability or customer impact occurs
  • Driving, maintaining, and enriching all customer context to improve Knit’s ability to meet the customers’ custom research needs
  • Being the final, customer-ready check and approver on all Knit final topline delivery and presenting the key insights and recommendations directly to the customers
  • Participating in continuous innovation on Knit’s AI product to minimize the delta between Knit’s AI output and a human researcher output
  • Driving on feedback collection on “the last mile” - uncovering and documenting what happens after Knit delivers a project to when it’s “stakeholder ready,” supporting Knit’s product vision in getting to stakeholder ready reports

Required Skills & Experiences

Required:

  • Must have 5+ years of market research experience, with the majority of the time spent on the supplier side in a market research agency environment.
  • Must have experience leading discovery and scoping calls, writing and editing quant and qual questionnaires from scratch, drafting analysis plans, and creating and presenting stakeholder-ready insights topline & reports.
  • Ability to drive initiatives and outcomes in ambiguous environments, both for navigating complex customer needs and Knit internal business changes. Proven track record successfully operating in an early stage startup (<50 employees) is a plus.
  • Proven track record of owning and supporting client relationships with customers at Enterprise, Fortune 500 US-based companies, specifically working with insights professionals to scope and achieve desired research outcomes, resulting in customer retention and growth.
  • Ability to drive initiatives and outcomes successfully in environments with competing priorities, multiple research projects on at a given time, and simultaneous internal business demands.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
