Hello, I'm
James
James has been at DJS Research since 2008, bringing experience and clients from the B2B and healthcare sectors. He began his career at Business & Market Research (B&MR) after graduating from Leeds University with a degree in Psychology and Sociology, managing projects across multiple sectors including construction, healthcare, education, and industrial markets.
As a Research Director, James is responsible for designing and delivering solutions to meet clients’ insight needs, using a mix of research techniques. He particularly enjoys developing bespoke methods that are used repeatedly in different contexts. He also oversees growth at DJS Research, coordinating the sales team and developing proactive plans for business development. James has applied research across customer satisfaction, branding, market sizing, marketing communications, PR, new product development, exporting, and channel strategy.
James has found it particularly rewarding to have been part of DJS Research’s journey from an early stage and to contribute to its growth. Helping to secure the future of the agency through an employee ownership arrangement has been especially satisfying for him.
James has written regular articles, a section of which can be found here:
- A walk in the skies! DJS Research walk the Edale skyline for Blythe House Hospicecare
- The MRS Awards! A fairy tale account
- Thrills and spills as the whole company enjoys day out at Drayton Manor theme park!
For reasons still unclear to James, outside of work he is regularly involved in amateur theatre. One day he hopes to develop the market research pantomime and knows there are others who share his ambition.
