And you’ll have opportunities to work and spend time with like-minded colleagues from across the globe right from the get-go.

Through hard work, drive, and a commitment to delivering results, you’ll be on the path to receiving a full-time return offer for our Associate Program, and following that, becoming Manager in two years and Vice President in five, all while being part of a global team that’s dedicated to building a business, improving themselves, supporting one another, and celebrating successes together.

The Role
As a Summer Associate on our client service team, you’ll act as the connection point between our clients and industry experts. Your role is to focus on clients’ knowledge gaps and identify experts with the knowledge that can address them. Thinking quickly and critically, you’ll conduct surface-level research on companies and industries to identify the precise experts around the globe who can answer our clients’ questions. You’ll spend considerable time reaching out by phone to experts to assess whether their knowledge is a relevant match to the client request you’re working on and you’ll connect qualified experts to our clients in real time. Working on several client requests at the same time, you’ll need to learn effective prioritization to efficiently identify and qualify highly relevant expertise.

This is a fast-paced, client facing, communication-intense role with a clear focus on effectiveness and revenue generation. Summer Associates develop skills in negotiation, professional communication, project management, client service, and conflict resolution which pave their way to successful careers in commercial and operational leadership.
