About Us
UK&Co is a management consulting firm with over three decades of experience. We work primarily with FMCG organisations in the private sector, focusing on family-managed businesses that are regional market leaders with strong commitments to product quality and people.
We're not a research team. We're a newsroom for the businesses that built this country.
UK&Co helps small and medium family businesses scale and builds the thought leadership around why they matter to India's economic story. We're looking for a Research Associate / Manager with an
investigative journalism instinct: someone who chases a thread until it unravels into a story nobody else was telling.

What you'll work on
1. Industry Deep-Dives — Consumer goods, foundries, manufacturing, retail. Research that directly
shapes strategy for the businesses we work with daily.
2. Government of Karnataka Think Tank Work — Contributing to reports on the Trillion Dollar Economy,
jobs, the gig workforce, and healthcare policy. Research with a direct line to public policy.
3. A Content Portal, Built from Scratch — Podcasts, blogs, and sharp reports for our partner businesses — including how shocks like war ripple through specific industries. Real creative ownership, not a template calendar.

Who we're looking for
• Background in investigative journalism, research, or policy analysis
• Genuine curiosity about family businesses and India's economic engine room
• Equally comfortable with hard data and compelling storytelling
• Wants a career in research, not a pit stop
• Self-starter — this function is being built, so you'll shape it
__
Why this is a great place to be
• Research that can shape government policy, not just sit in a deck
• Real range — manufacturing one week, healthcare policy the next, a podcast script after that
• An early seat at the table as we build this function from scratch
• A team that treats research as a craft
