Job Description

This role is part of our Client Services Team, within the Public Equities & Credit vertical. As a Client Relationship Manager, you'll be the person driving relationships by enabling our clients to connect to the industry experts that will help them.

During your initial training period, you'll hone your skills targeting, sourcing and screening relevant industry specialists, including C-Level executives at Fortune 500 companies. After this period, you'll advance to directly managing your own book of business composed of major Public Equity and Credit investment funds.

You'll spend much of your time on the phone, both with your clients, to unpack what they need from an expert, and with industry specialists, to find the perfect match. Ultimately, it's about uncovering what our clients need, digging deep to help them solve their most pressing problems, and connecting them to key thought leaders from every corner of the market.

Responsibilities
  • Understand Public Equity client needs and the most relevant experts that could help them.
  • Deliver excellent client service by being a fast, responsive, thoughtful and proactive research partner.
  • Engage with industry experts for our clients by reaching out over the phone and through professional correspondences, to understand whether they are the right fit. This would also involve regularly cold-calling potential experts who uniquely match the project requirements.
  • Negotiate and persuade experts to connect with our clients at short notice, scheduling calls as soon as possible, whilst operating within our industry leading compliance framework.
  • After 4-5 months you'll be driving the long-term performance of your book of business, by understanding the clients' research needs and monitoring how our content can best help them on a continual basis.
Development

We are committed to helping everyone at Third Bridge grow and develop, this starts from day 1 and continues throughout your career. Our comprehensive onboarding program includes both classroom-based and on-the-job learning that will teach you the fundamentals of our business, how our clients think, how to sell our value proposition to secure experts and how to explore a multitude of industry sectors in order to provide an excellent service to our clients.

You will also learn how to identify industry experts as well as developing your communication skills to engage with industry specialists/senior professionals over the phone.

Typically, but not exclusively, after 4 to 6 months in your Third Bridge journey you will have mastered Specialist Management, you will then progress to our Client Engagement Learning Programme to take on client relationship building and project management responsibilities. You'll learn how to engage with investor and management consulting clients, drive business results and lead project delivery teams.
