NSR Analyst

NSR Analysts are responsible for the end-to-end production of market research studies on specific subjects within the satellite market and for the undertaking of contracted consulting projects for a global client base.

NSR expects Analysts to be well grounded in the dynamics of the current satellite market and to show a high level of motivation in remaining at the forefront of current events and trends. Basic knowledge of market modeling is another critical ability required of an Analyst, along with a systematic and detail-oriented approach to work that enables the analyst to remain within the timetable set for any given project. Finally, an Analyst must have the required mix of independence that allows them to tackle a large range of projects, while at the same time be a consummate team player who is proactive in working with colleagues.

The Analyst position will provide coverage for many areas in the satellite market covered by NSR. NSR is very flexible in terms of working hours and location.
