Research Support Officer - Data Entry

ORIMA Research is a private Australian-owned professional services firm that provides market and social research, data analytics, organisational performance improvement and related advisory services.  We are a genuine public sector research specialist, whereby over 90% of our clients are in the government sector.  Established in 1996, we now have around 60 professional staff working across four offices in Melbourne, Canberra, Sydney and Brisbane. 

ORIMA is a values-based organisation and we pride ourselves on our service ethos, high performance culture, innovation, integrity and focus on helping our staff to thrive.  We are:

• People who believe in the value of evidence-based approaches to inform government decision making;
