This month our spotlight falls on Media City again as we talk with one of our newer faces, Vivien Chan.
Vivien joined BiP as part of our DCMC and Cadence Marketing services in August 2021, she has quickly established herself as a vital part of the survey team – bringing some great new ideas and problem solving skills, along with some amazing baking skills and Chinese dumplings to the team!
She was also nominated for our New Employee of the Year award – a thoroughly deserved nomination.
In what capacity did you start at BiP?
Research Executive
What did your previous job entail?
Project management – meaning I had to be organised and detail minded, with a good pair of eyes!
Why did you choose to join BiP?
I like the market proposition of Cadence and it’s good that I can continue working in a research related job role.
How has your BiP journey been so far?
Exciting, I’ve been working with various clients on different research topics, and I’ve been given great the support by all my lovely colleagues.
Is there anything we could do differently to welcome new colleagues?
A team welcome tea break in the pantry?
Can you sum up what your job involves?
Understanding a client’s research needs, and transforming that into a survey which will engage the target audience. Then it’s a case of analysing that data collected and turning it into a meaningful research report/whitepaper for the client.
How is working at BiP different to your previous roles (company and position)?
In terms of the target audience, it is quite different. In my previous role, the projects were more related to commercial/consumers/employees. Now it is more focused on public sector audiences.
When are you at your most productive?
Morning time is the best.
What’s your favourite thing to do outside of work?
Baking, cooking and enjoying delicious food!
