Who We Are

Our Story

Monkey See was launched on Valentine’s Day 2011, by three partners with a mission to inspire new direction and action for our clients through carefully designed, alternative research programmes.

Our name comes from the saying “Monkey see, Monkey do” which speaks to one of the underlying triggers of behaviour – our tendency to follow the lead of others.

Leadership Team

We’re small but confident in our super-powers. We have 50 yrs research experience between us (eek!) and work with the best fieldwork and analytics firms in the business.
