Our researchers

We have a highly competent and experienced team of researchers working with us at PFA.

All undergo our specialist training before conducting any research interviews. We choose the right staff for each particular project, based on their skills and experience.

For more information on becoming a researcher, see the PFA Academy.

Why PFA?

Many research participants ask us what PFA stands for – the company was named after the founding directors, Gil Patrick and Ian Finch (Patrick Finch Associates). Gil is still in touch with PFA and we tap into his creative thinking from time to time.
