    • Effective communicator—able to convey technical or analytical information clearly to non-technical audiences
    • Curious, proactive, and eager to learn

    Q5 is looking for graduates to join our team in London for a 12 week period from 6/9/27. These positions are in-person. Please note that this role will remain open and interviews will be ongoing until we have filled all positions, at which point we will close this opening and will inform all applicants if they have been unsuccessful.
    If you will still be studying during the academic year 27/28, please look at our Summer Research Analyst positions which are designed for undergraduates.

    Q5 is an award-winning management consultancy that helps organisations across the globe design and deliver lasting change. From strategy to implementation, we work collaboratively to solve complex problems with creativity, clarity, and compassion. With offices in London, Leeds, New York, Houston, Sydney, Melbourne, and Saudi Arabia, we support clients in both the Private and Public sectors across industries such as healthcare, energy, defence, transport, retail, finance, and media.

    Our work spans organisation design, strategic alignment, cultural change, and transformation. We are proud to be a consultancy that puts people at the heart of everything we do—helping businesses not just work better, but become better places to work.

    As a Research Analyst, you’ll gain real-world consulting experience in a supportive, collaborative environment. You’ll work alongside experienced consultants on live client projects, within our Datahub team, and on internal initiatives—applying critical thinking, data-driven analysis, and understanding of Q5’s leading edge suite of tools, to help organisations solve complex business challenges.

    This is an exciting opportunity to develop your consulting skills at an organisation known for its values, people focus, and innovative approach to transformation.

    Key Responsibilities

    • Support consulting teams by conducting quantitative and qualitative research, analysis, and synthesis
    • Use data and Q5 tools to diagnose organisational challenges, test hypotheses, and support recommendations

    • Hands-on consulting experience across a range of industries and project types
    • Exposure to real-world business problems, including data-driven analysis and organisational design
