About the Team

Associates are the engine behind GLG’s Insight Network, the world’s largest and most varied source of first-hand expertise. The Associate role is a fast-paced, expert-facing role.

As an Associate, you will need to quickly understand clients’ project requests and needs, create innovative solutions for each client assignment, identify and recruit new Network Members (experts), and ensure end-to-end delivery of calls on your team, including scheduling, to provide a seamless client experience.

Associates complete a comprehensive training program, receive daily coaching and feedback, and develop strong, transferable business and leadership skills that will help them excel in their current and future roles.

  • Recruit and vet new relevant experts to the GLG Network, building your lead generation, outreach, screening and pitching skills.
  • Develop strong, transferable business skills, including communication, time management, negotiating, problem solving, project management, research and the ability to achieve monthly/quarterly targets.
  • Collaborate with colleagues on and across both regional and global teams to contribute to revenue and broader commercial success.
