Collaborate with cross-functional partners (Enrollment, Data Science, Operations, Family Experience) to identify research questions, design studies, and test solutions that enhance the family experience. Track key metrics related to family engagement and sentiment, helping teams stay focused on what matters most to families. Translate research findings into stories and actionable insights that inspire empathy and drive improvements across the organization. Create accessible visuals and presentations (journey maps, dashboards, briefs) that communicate insights clearly and effectively to both technical and non-technical audiences. Qualifications Bachelor’s degree in a relevant field such as Sociology, Psychology, UX/Design Research, Human-Computer Interaction, Market Research, Education, or Business; a graduate degree is a plus. 3+ years of experience in customer insights, market research, CX research, or design/UX research.
