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.

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:

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 relevant content 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.
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.

Researcher 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 bridge their knowledge gaps, quickly. You’ll also need occasionally to go above and beyond to ensure a smooth partnership with your clients.

Qualifications

Areas that play to your strengths:

You must be able to deliver high quality work on a deadline.

Private equity investors are under a lot of pressure to make decisions fast, but you stay calm and get things done.
The Founder’s Mentality completely resonates with you, as this approach is part of our DNA. You’re an independent thinker who feels energised by the freedom Associates have to come up with the best solutions for their clients.
You’re a clear communicator who can create the right narrative to share your ideas with a wide range of people, such as introducing our products and services to new clients and experts.
Your attitude is to roll up your sleeves and you enjoy being in the thick of the action. It matters a great deal to you to understand how your performance ranks against your own potential and against others, so you continuously seek feedback to make sure you can be at the top of your game.
