Hear it from the team
I joined the Insights team as a Research Coordinator, keeping projects on track behind the scenes. A year later, I was promoted to Research Program Manager, and I now help shape how the team works. At DS, your role isn’t limited to what’s on paper. You’re trusted with more as soon as you show you’re ready.
When I joined DS in 2021, I was eager to grow into a data scientist role. Since then, I’ve been exposed to incredibly smart people who believed in our capacity to solve hard challenges. It enabled me to learn new skills, from sophisticated predictive methods that assess the impact of marketing initiatives on financial results to leveraging LLMs to design AI-fuelled and autonomous solutions.
After working in the digital team as a coordinator for over a year, and learning skills like communication, organization and digital marketing, I was ready for a new challenge. When a position on the accounts team opened up, a colleague encouraged me to apply. I’m so appreciative of a culture at DS that has fostered my professional development and keeps me building towards the next step in my career.
What I enjoy about working at DS is that we’re always looking at challenges from different angles, bringing together research, data, media and creative to build stronger strategies for our clients. Working alongside people who approach problems differently has pushed me to ask better questions, challenge my own thinking and create space for different perspectives on my own team.
DS has been a fantastic place for remote work! I’m based in Ottawa and work from home 95% of the time. I maintain weekly video chats with the people I work most closely with, and whenever there’s an opportunity to meet up in person, I take it. Some of the most fun I’ve had at DS has been at the sugar shack events.
DS is a great place for students who aren’t sure yet where they fit. The Content Team was eager to let me try new things, from graphic design to copywriting. I wasn’t an expert in either, but I learned to bring clients’ voices into my work and to take feedback professionally, surrounded by people who pushed me forward while taking me under their wing.
