“At this stage of our growth, it made sense to ‘go big’ in 2021 in order to continue fulfilling our commitment to excellent customer service for all of our clients,” said Tom Littlejohn, COO at Veridata Insights. “We’ve invested in skilled team members in nearly every department, from operations and technology to sales and finance. We’ve also established two entirely new divisions, qualitative research and survey programming. This, along with our new global offices, will allow us to better serve the market research and data collection needs of our diverse set of clients.”

Technology New Hires
The technology team has grown, adding software engineers Kelly Martin and Jessica Boe. Both were key hires to continue development on SampleTap, Veridata Insights’ proprietary project management platform. Kelly is focused on front-end web development as well as back-end compute and storage technologies while Jessie enjoys leveraging her passion for machine learning to tackle huge datasets. With their help Sampletap became an even more efficient tool for the operations team to more effectively serve Veridata’s clients.

Operations New Hires
The operations department at the company was expanded by six new staff members, including the recent addition of Director of Operations Natalie Clancy, who was previously a project team lead at Dynata.
