Kada Research, which was founded in 2011, is a UK and international economic consultancy that provides social and economic research, analysis and advice to the public, private and non-profit sectors.

Karl Dalgleish, director at Kada Research, said: “At Kada we are very committed to continuing to support new talent entering the research industry, and very privileged to be in such proximity to two excellent universities which helps to nurture great candidates.

“In their short time with us Emily and Louis have both shown a real commitment to the work that we do, and we are delighted to have them on board. Their contribution will prove invaluable as we continue to take on more economic and social research projects, both here in the UK and internationally.”
