BPA is a Brisbane-based company with 30 years of expertise in analysing and advising on how to manage Organisational Culture as an organisational asset. This is our core business.
At its most basic, Organisational Culture is all about "How we do things around here".
We make extensive use of narrative text research to unpack what an organisation's culture is actually doing. And we advise organisational executives on how to build their cultural strengths and reduce/eliminate the behaviours that are unacceptable or undesirable.
BPA's office is located in the Brisbane CBD and is close to many public transport options.
About the Position The Assistant Social Researcher will join our Culture Analytics Team (yes, the CATs) and will develop into the role by building skill-sets in a range of research activities:
Survey managementLinguistic analyticsBenchmarking analyticsResearch mappingQuality controlReport & presentation preparationThe CATs are a deliberately eclectic group. They have a range of degrees, including Psychological Science, Sociology, Humanities, Publishing, and Applied Science. Their common bond is a serious interest in digging into data to discover the underlying themes, and a relentless focus on the quality of what they do.
About You This position doesn't require a specific degree, but you do need to be a thinking person who loves learning and getting things done. We will teach you about all the specific types of analytics you will do.
But it would really suit someone who sees Organisational Culture as "their jam", the thing that incites their passion and sense of discovery. If you have a background in Sociology, Organisational Development, or Organisational Psychology, then this could suit your interests. We have a very practice-based (rather than academic) way of working with culture - when you check out our website, you will see what I mean.
This position will suit applicants of any age – there is no age limit on what makes a good researcher in organisational culture. It will be important for you to have full-time work experience – in any industry. The more life experience you have, the better you can understand the stories that people are telling us about working in their organisations – the good and the bad.
About BPA's Culture BPA's culture is friendly, open, professional & full of opportunities to learn new things. We set "the bar" high and it would normally take about 2 years for a new employee to have accumulated enough skills and experience to reach that bar. Let me describe how it works, so you can decide whether this is for you or not.
