Job Description:

What is Consulting?
Our consulting clients work on behalf of large companies (e.g. Fortune 500's) or institutional investors and support them by doing deep dive research to provide guidance on their corporate strategy or investment decisions.

The insights they get through our experts and content are the backbone of the recommendations they deliver to their clients.

Associate, Consulting

As an Associate in our Consulting business, you'll have opportunities to work with the top management consulting firms in the world.

They will trust in you for access to the most relevant experts and research content, which you are responsible for identifying and recommending to them throughout their project lifecycles.

To do so you'll gather a unique set of stakeholder management skills that will help you deliver excellent results for both clients and experts.

The projects can be complex, but the impact is meaningful - every day you will get to hear directly from your clients, experts and colleagues about the difference you have made.

The hats you will wear:

-
Business driver:understanding excellent client servicing in a highly competitive market and how your work impacts revenue growth. Work with your team to execute strategies for the accounts you are responsible for.

In practice:_ on every project, you will have an opportunity to drive performance by delivering on client requests. Each client and expert interaction is an opportunity to bring in revenue and build your book of business.

-
Problem solver: Consulting clients count on us for their research needs, it's our job to execute on their requests for experts.

In practice: _you will search for and vet experts to support your clients at each stage of their research_. _They operate under very tight deadlines that we have to match with urgency, but not at the expense of quality.

-
Player & coach:We operate as one team, both within your individual team and within the EU Consulting business at large. One day, you will be leading the charge, and another you'll be supporting your peers.

In practice: _you will be asked to train and develop the people around you, both on your team and those you're working with on client requests. You will also receive lots of handson training and coaching yourself. We are a feedbackcentric culture, and value effective communication.

-
Research partner: Throughout their research, clients rely on us to think as an extension of their team.

In practice:_ there will be times where we need to think outside the box and offer solutions that bridges their knowledge gaps, quickly. You'll also need occasionally to go above and beyond to ensure a smooth partnership with your clients.
