HR Senior Executive

What we do?

Milieu Insight is a consumer research and analytics company.  We help businesses thrive in a data-driven world of rapid change, where the need for reliable, quick information to make strategic decisions has never been greater. We believe in the transformative power of going beyond insights and we're driven by our passion to understand people - how they think, feel and act. Through smart automation, best-in-class technology, a core focus on user experience, and most importantly, an amazing team, we collect and deliver consumer insight like no other research company around.

How we do it?

We collect our data through a proprietary mobile app known as Milieu Surveys (just search for it in the Singapore, Malaysia, Vietnam, Indonesia, Philippines & Thailand app stores if you'd like to give it a spin). The opinions shared by our community of panellists are synthesised through our proprietary algorithms, allowing us to gain a deep understanding of what drives their personal and social motivations, as well as their consumption habits.

What motivates us (and hopefully you)?

We're a team of explorers, always looking for new, better and more effective ways of working in our craft. Our curiosity pushes us to challenge the status quo, design and build cutting edge solutions, and even challenge our clients to embrace new ways of thinking about and using consumer insight.
