Oliver Truman

A recent addition to the team, Oliver joined B2B International full-time in 2007, after graduating from the University of Manchester in English Language and Linguistics. During the course of his degree studies, he pursued his interest in linguistics further by assisting with research into endangered languages of the Nepalese region.

Oliver started his B2B career in 2004 as part of the interviewing team, and has since progressed to the role of Research Executive, with special responsibilities for online operations. His duties in this area include designing and administering e-surveys and running online focus groups, as well as carrying out in-depth data analysis (both quantitative and qualitative) and preparing presentations in a wide range of projects. Some recent Clients he has worked with include Michelin, Crown Paints, HSBC, McCann Erickson, OCR and Macfarlane Packaging.

Away from work, Oliver is an avid follower of two of Britain’s favourite pastimes – Cricket and Football, and obsessively tracks Lancashire’s futile attempts to win the County Championship. Sadly, this enthusiasm for watching sport doesn’t always translate to the playing field itself, save for some occasional, decidedly inaccurate, medium-pace bowling. A keen traveller, Oliver has toured Europe extensively, sampling some the continent’s finest ales along the way.
