Job Description:

Prolific is a BPC-accredited pollster with an established polling operation in the UK and US. In 2026 we are looking to take that function to the next level. We're hiring a Senior Researcher in public opinion and polling to work with our sciences lead on building this function into a core element of our business, turning it into something with real visibility, innovation, and impact.

Job Responsibility:

  • Designing and executing polling and public opinion programmes: methodology development, questionnaire design, sampling strategy, weighting approaches, and data collection oversight
  • Innovating on polling methodology: tackling hard problems, testing new sampling and data approaches, exploring synthetic data augmentation, and validating methods against real-world outcomes
  • Analysing and reporting: producing clear, compelling reports for internal teams, external partners, and media audiences
  • Acting as a public face for Prolific's research: serving as one of our media liaisons for polling releases, providing expert commentary, and representing Prolific at industry events
  • Building our polling infrastructure: collaborating with Marketing and Design teams to create data visualisations and develop a centralised polling hub
  • Managing external relationships: working with PR partners, our marketing team, and cultivating media contacts to maximise the reach and impact of our work
  • Contributing to wider research projects: applying your research expertise to other initiatives within the sciences team

Requirements:

  • Masters degree or higher in political science, survey methodology, statistics, or a related quantitative field
  • Strong technical knowledge of polling methodologies — raking, post-stratification, MRP — including when to apply them and the ability to implement them in code
  • 2+ years experience delivering public opinion research outside of academia (i.e., you've shipped polls that people have actually seen)
  • An ideas-focused thinker who is able to tackle novel methods and innovative concepts head on
  • Familiarity with the practicalities of online panel research, including the trade-offs involved in non-probability sampling
  • A solid understanding of the UK and US polling landscape (and ideally beyond)
  • Comfortable operating autonomously and building something from the ground up
  • Confident communicator who can translate complex methodology for non-technical audiences
  • Genuine curiosity about research beyond polling. You're excited by questions around data quality, representativeness, and the future of online research

Nice to have:

  • Research interest in adjacent questions around data quality, synthetic data, or representativeness
  • Experience working with BPC, AAPOR, or similar professional organisations
  • Track record of publishing methodology pieces, thought leadership, or public-facing analysis
  • Experience as a media spokesperson or comfort with on-the-record commentary
What we offer:
  • competitive compensation
  • benefits
  • flexible remote working options
