ApprenticeshipTHE INSIGHTS FAMILY® LAUNCHES THE ACADEMY GRADUATE PROGRAMME

THE INSIGHTS FAMILY® LAUNCHES THE ACADEMY GRADUATE PROGRAMME

The Insights Family®, the global leader in kids, parents, and family market intelligence launches their innovative graduate programme – TIF – Academy.

Created to help graduates establish themselves in an internationally-focused, fast growing marketing research company, the programme will include 12 months’ work across the business with individuals then having the opportunity to be fast-tracked into specific areas according to their interests and talents. Such areas include commercial, account management, consultancy, research, and marketing & innovation.

TIF – Academy is expected to recruit four graduates each year.

Currently, The Insights Family® has 54 full-time employees. Located in Manchester’s city centre, it has employees representing 14 different nationalities. Among them are industry professionals from France, Canada, Spain, Ukraine, and Russia. 17 employees are graduates from Greater Manchester Universities.

Nick Richardson, Founder & CEO The Insights Family® comments,
“It has been with immense pride that we have been able to provide so many opportunities for graduates in the city, to work with and for global leading brands; something that when I graduated in 2003 just would not have been possible without moving to London. As we continue to accelerate our growth, we are now in a position to launch a structured and innovative graduate programme which will provide four individuals with an incredible opportunity to accelerate their development and success.”

Jonathan Watson, Chief Product Officer, The Insights Family® said:
“Having graduated from MMU with a first in Economics in 2017, I decided to join a start-up rather than a corporate graduate programme. Four years later, I find myself as Chief Product Officer leading the company’s innovation and marketing team. What we have developed will provide four individuals with opportunities which are seldom out there, and I very much look forward to welcoming the graduates to our business. I’m excited to be part of the mentoring programme and enabling them to succeed like myself and so many others who have joined the business over the last 4 years.”
