We’d all like amazing work to do, and real work-life balance. That’s waiting for you at Sainsbury’s. We’re one of the biggest supermarkets in the UK with one of the largest websites. So marketing here really happens at scale. We move a lot faster than you’d think too, across Brand Planning, Brand Comms and Creative, Digital Marketing, CRM and Loyalty, Nectar 360, Insights, and Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability. More people shopping with us each week means more interactions. And thanks to data insight, we understand customers in a way that almost nobody else does. We work alongside incredible brand partners and the best agencies around. So if you have a passion to learn, grow and experience new teams, come and explore it all with us.

At Sainsbury’s, we are dedicated to creating the easiest, most enjoyable experiences for our customers and colleagues. We work across a wide range of services, products, and touchpoints to deliver integrated and consistent experiences across the Sainsbury’s Group, including Argos, Habitat, Tu, and Nectar. Our Experience Design Researchers play a pivotal role in shaping user-centric solutions by delivering insights that inform product roadmaps and design strategies. We collaborate closely with cross-functional teams in an agile environment to ensure our work reflects the needs of our diverse customer base.

As an Experience Design Researcher, you will lead and deliver end-to-end research projects that uncover user needs and behaviours. You will design and execute qualitative and quantitative studies, synthesise findings into actionable insights, and present these to stakeholders to influence product and design decisions. You will work both tactically and strategically, supporting agile product teams and contributing to the development of user-centric experiences across digital and in-store channels.

You are a curious and pragmatic researcher with a passion for understanding people and solving complex problems. You are comfortable working in dynamic, cross-functional teams and have a track record of delivering impactful research. You are confident in engaging stakeholders, facilitating workshops, and translating insights into compelling narratives. You thrive in environments where you can champion the voice of the user and contribute to a culture of continuous improvement.

• Proven experience conducting qualitative and quantitative research across the product development lifecycle.
• Ability to synthesise insights from multiple sources into actionable recommendations.
• Strong stakeholder engagement and communication skills, including workshop facilitation.
• Experience working in agile, cross-functional teams on digital and omni-channel products.
• Familiarity with research and analytics tools such as Maze, Attest, Miro, or Google Analytics, or willingness to learn.
