Role Description
We're looking for a part-time researcher to support our founder's work identifying and evaluating opportunities to build new brands. You'll dig into markets, categories, and cultural trends, then translate that research into compelling decks and analysis for emerging brands and VC partners.
As a researcher, you'll be behind the scenes of how Practice decides which brands to build and how we build brands from concept, to formula, to market with founders and investors. You'll help spot white space in a category, size up market opportunities, and pull together the kind of sharp, well-argued analysis that shapes real business decisions. This isn't just research for research's sake; it will directly feed into brands that get built and launched.
