Muneer’s passion for technology and systems began at a young age, and he went on to turn that interest into a career by completing a BSc Honours degree in Business and Information Technology at Coventry University. He joined M·E·L Research shortly after graduating in 2014 as a Data Analyst, and is now our Data Visualisation Manager, bringing a wealth of experience in delivering analytical support and insight-driven solutions to public sector organisations.
In his current role, Muneer leads on the development of interactive dashboards using platforms like Forsta Studio and Forsta Viz, helping clients visualise their data in clear, meaningful ways. He keeps a close eye on the latest trends and best practices in data visualisation and emerging technologies to make sure we’re always ahead of the curve. He also plays a key role in supporting our busy Insights team – from scripting multimode surveys (CATI, CAWI, CAPI and paper) using Forsta and Snap Surveys, to producing complex data outputs such as weighting, frequency tables, and cross-tabulations.
Muneer is highly proficient in a range of analytical tools, including Confirmit (Forsta), Snap, DisplayR and Studio, and is also a qualified PRINCE2® Practitioner in programme and project management. He enjoys the variety and pace of his work, and values the opportunity to make a real difference to clients by helping them improve their services through better data and insights.
Outside of work, Muneer enjoys spending time with his family, watching investigative documentaries, films, and sports. He’s also one of the few qualified legal interpreters in the West Midlands, regularly providing interpretation services to HM Courts, the Police, and other organisations.

Doorstep engagement provides a direct and effective way for councils, housing providers, utilities, charities and other public service organisations to reach people in their own communities. A well-designed doorstep engagement programme can do more than distribute information. It can help organisations understand why people are not using a service, address practical barriers, provide tailored support and encourage lasting behaviour change.

Ripple Effect Mapping (REM) focuses on discovering and understanding the impacts or effects of a programme, project or intervention using multiple stakeholders. REM adopts a strengths-based approach and looks at how certain actions or efforts play a role in causing the observed changes. The idea is to identify changes or effects and how an intervention caused them - this approach helps to visually map out the outcomes and impacts of a programme or initiative, particularly the indirect or "ripple" effects that may not be immediately apparent.
