A little about The Leading Edge

The Leading Edge is an established strategic research consultancy, born in Sydney 23 years ago, out of a frustration with the research industry and a desire to do things differently. Our purpose is quite simply, to provide clarity and a way forward in an increasingly complex marketing arena. We navigate complexity to create value. We do this through better understanding consumers, markets and organisations and how to influence behaviours.

Doing things differently means we attract a certain kind of person. A Leading Edger tends to have a healthy maverick streak, an aversion to the ordinary and a love of looking at problems with genuinely fresh eyes and telling it like it is.

If this sounds like you, please apply today!
