You may be an ideal fit if you have a background in buy-side or sell-side research, management consulting, or have used data to analyze business trends and develop solutions to customer challenges. Experience covering or working in the consumer or internet sectors is a plus. If you are passionate about leveraging data to drive actionable insights, we encourage you to apply!

• New Product Development: Collaborate with our data team to help build new research products and features
• Customer Relationships: Become a trusted resource for our subscribers, the largest investors in the world
• Product Marketing: Work with our Sales, Client Strategy and Marketing teams to position our products on clients calls, webcasts, and in press references

You Are Likely To Succeed If:
