It’s been Survation’s busiest year yet, and we're looking to find another senior addition to lead projects, grow a research sector and develop a team, working directly with me and the senior team:
Senior Research Manager - £55–£65k + performance bonus. You’ll head one of our research sectors, run project teams and work directly with me and the senior team. 4–5+ years’ agency experience, strong on method and clients, and you care about UK politics.
survation.com/survation-is-h…
Open Starter / Trainee roles.
2) Junior Research & Data Analyst:
survation.com/careers/junior…
3) Trainee Research Executive - a first step into polling and research. No agency experience needed: we want attention to detail, the ability to tell a story from data, and curiosity about public opinion. We fund the MRS Advanced Certificate.
survation.com/survation-is-h…
We’re a BPC member and MRS company partner with 16 years of constituency, by-election and MRP work behind us, and a small enough team that your work is visible from day one - to clients, journalists and policymakers.
Applications to careers@survation.com with CV and cover letter. Senior RM closes 18 November; the other two are open until filled. Please RT - and if you know someone who’d be good, send them this!

David Cowling has emailed to apologise for his excitement about calling a Tory/Reform crossover in his regular (excellent) polling analysis.
Despite the aggregator/averager excitement, the Conservative party is a mere +2 since January and still a point *behind* Reform (-7 vs Jan), 7 points behind Labour.
The right remains disunited. Full data linked:

Help is welcome, but is it enough? Budget day in people’s own words
On Budget day, Survation asked 706 people for 38 Degrees for their reactions to John Healey’s Budget, in their own words.
Energy dominated: 555 of 706 raised energy bills, the £100 payment or the standing charge, and the £100 payment was the measure most named as helping (272 of 706). 418 of 706 backed the tax on bank profits to fund it.
But for many it wasn’t enough to change things: 483 of 706 said the Government isn’t moving fast enough on prices, and 129 of 706 said nothing announced would help them.

A fair bit of "house effect" going on. Labour leads everywhere, by anything from 3 to 8 pts. 2nd place depends on whose poll you read: Opinium, Deltapoll & ourselves have Reform. Ipsos, YouGov, MiC and FON have the Tories. Pooled, Con & Reform sit level on 22. Widest spreads are Labour (26–32) & Greens (7–13); everyone else within 4 points.
Today, the UK government has approved extraction from the Jackdaw gas field in the North Sea.
Previous polling on behalf of the Forum for Research on Energy showed that 6 in 10 Scots supported the approval prior to its happening:
survation.com/six-in-ten-sco…
On Rosebank, 64% say the UK Government should approve it and 16% say it should not. 63% say the Scottish Government should support both the Jackdaw and Rosebank projects going ahead, against 18% who say it should not.
55% say the Scottish Government should be more supportive of continued North Sea oil and gas production, 20% that its current position is about right and 11% that it should be less supportive. Among those who voted SNP at May’s election, 47% want the Scottish Government to be more supportive, against 30% who think its position is about right.

59% support developing oil and gas in the UK North Sea and 14% oppose it; 65% support expanding offshore wind around Scotland and 11% oppose it; 60% support building new electricity transmission infrastructure, such as pylons and substations, with 9% opposed.
On planning for that infrastructure, 34% would make the process faster even if communities have fewer chances to object, 27% would keep it as it is and 23% would give communities more chances to object.
