After your initial training period, where you’ll hone your skills targeting, sourcing and screening relevant industry specialists, you’ll start directly managing your own book of business. You’ll spend much of your time on the phone, both with your clients to unpick what they need from an expert, and with industry specialists to find the perfect match. Ultimately, it’s about uncovering what our clients need and digging deep to find out whether the experts we identify know the answers to the questions our clients want to ask.
