Market Research Intern

COVID-19 has reinforced the importance of Sanctuary’s technology for
enabling remote telework with crucial applications in care and food
production as well as many other industry verticals. As the technology
platform centers around a General Purpose Robot (GPR), the importance of
understanding tasks through a general lens allows for the appropriate
prioritization of commercial deployments and assists in defining the
technology roadmap. A market research intern is required to support our
Chief Commercial Officer in the ongoing valuation of target economic tasks.
In this role you will contribute to the research and analytical efforts of the
commercialization team in support of our growing database of labour
statistics.
You will seek to understand the value of different work tasks. You will focus
on identifying and analysing existing information about relevant occupations
including time-motion studies. In addition, when no published resources are
available for a given occupation, you will perform primary research through
interviews and other methods to understand the task breakdown of that
occupation.
Responsibilities
– Perform secondary research on occupations particularly as it relates to
time and motion studies to quantify the value of work tasks.
– Performing primary research when necessary, including interviews
– Organize information, and update database with latest findings
– Report analysis in a database/format for consultation with other team
members.
