[Hiring] Senior Research Writer & Strategist @JobRack

Role Description

We’re looking for a Senior Research Writer & Strategist who can own original research projects from strategy through to the final report. This isn’t a “write from a brief” role. You’ll work directly with clients to shape research approaches, contribute to survey design, interpret quantitative findings, uncover the strongest story in the data, and turn those findings into compelling, narrative-driven reports.

In this role, you will:

• Write narrative-driven research reports that transform complex survey data into compelling B2B thought leadership
• Identify the central story within the data, separating meaningful insight from background noise
• Interpret quantitative findings and crosstab data to uncover trends, implications, and strong report angles
• Own research projects from start to finish, including client kickoffs, research strategy, survey development, analysis, writing, and final delivery
• Lead client strategy sessions, present research findings, gather feedback, and confidently guide senior marketing and business leaders
• Challenge assumptions and recommend the strongest narrative, rather than simply summarising the available findings
• Develop clear report structures that change how readers think about a topic, not just what they know
• Work with AI-assisted first drafts, using your judgment to refine the narrative, interpret the data, and ensure the final work reflects genuine strategic thinking
• Review research reports and briefs for analytical rigour, narrative strength, clarity, and editorial quality
• Occasionally contribute to blogs, case studies, and other content projects when additional support is needed
• Help Redpoint grow its research practice by establishing editorial standards and, over time, mentoring additional research writers

Working Hours: This is a remote contractor role that can be full-time or part-time. You’ll need at least 4 hours of working-time overlap with US Mountain Time so that you can attend client calls and collaborate with the Redpoint team.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of experience in content strategy, research, journalism, analyst work, or a related role
• Experience writing reports, white papers, or thought leadership based on original quantitative survey data
• Confidence reviewing crosstab data, identifying meaningful findings, and developing a compelling narrative from the results
• Exceptional editorial judgment, including knowing which findings should lead, which should support the story, and which should be left out
• Strong narrative writing ability and a journalistic mindset—you don’t simply summarise findings, you build an evidence-based story
• Experience leading client calls and presenting strategic recommendations to senior marketing or business leaders
• B2B technology content experience and the ability to translate technical concepts into clear, accessible language
• Strong independent and strategic thinking—you can develop the angle, structure, and narrative from a dataset or broad topic without waiting for a detailed outline
• Comfort owning research projects end-to-end, from initial strategy through to the final report
• Confidence working with numbers, data tables, and statistical findings
• Willingness to work with, direct, and substantially improve AI-assisted first drafts
• A proactive and self-managed approach, with the ability to handle feedback and changing timelines transparently

Benefits

• $3,500–$4,500 per month*
• Full-time and fully remote
• 20 days paid time off, plus public holidays
• Opportunity to write high-impact content for major B2B tech brands
• Long-term role with room to grow alongside the business
• Close collaboration with a supportive founder and great clients
• Variety of projects across different technologies and industries

*Please note that this is a gross salary and that you are responsible for any tax-related procedures in your country of residence. We kindly ask you to apply only if you are happy to work remotely as an independent contractor.

• Apply only through JobRack; please don’t contact the company directly.
• We expect a respectful hiring experience - any disrespect means instant disqualification.
• This is a full-time, primary role (no freelancing or second jobs).
