Research Officer

Research Officer
A market-research agency with a mix of domestic and offshore clients, building out its policy and public-sector research bench
Location: Remote (India)
The agency has partnered with Flexiple, a managed marketplace that helps companies build high-performing India teams, to hire into a bench that increasingly serves government, multilateral, and public-sector clients alongside its usual commercial work. Those briefs move differently, with more documentation and more citation discipline, and this role is built for exactly that.
Where this role sits
As a Research Officer, you will conduct research under the direction of a project lead: running the literature and data work, drafting sections of reports, and preparing the evidence base that goes into a client submission, rather than deciding what the study asks in the first place.
Research and drafting
Conduct secondary research and structured data collection against a defined brief
Draft sections of reports, briefing notes, and literature reviews
Cross-check facts, figures, and citations before a document goes to review
Project support
Support survey design, coding, and basic tabulation on quantitative studies
Keep project files, sources, and version history in order for the lead researcher
The profile that fits
2 to 6 years producing research or written analysis under supervision
Strong secondary research skills and comfort with structured data
Precise, well-sourced writing that a senior reviewer can trust
Clear written and spoken English
A bonus if you have it
Exposure to public-sector, development, or policy-adjacent research
A postgraduate degree in economics, public policy, or social science
Familiarity with survey tools and basic statistical software
Why join this bench
A research-officer seat on an agency bench moving into public-sector work
Hybrid placement across Gurugram or Mumbai
A realistic path to leading sections of studies within a couple of cycles
