You will own and manage all aspects of client-to-expert interactions, including scheduling, rescheduling, and follow-up inquiries.

  • Expert recruiting: Confidently reach out to, recruit, and vet experts who are uniquely relevant matches for your clients' projects.
  • Commercial impact: Take on direct revenue responsibility and own monthly targets from the outset.
What you'll get
  • Client and senior executive facing responsibility from the get-go.
  • The opportunity to make a measurable contribution to your business unit's revenue growth and to achieve significant variable compensation reflecting your success.
  • A clear career path for advancement to Manager after 24-30 months, and to Vice President after ~5 years.
  • A unique training curriculum and intense on-the-job coaching, helping you develop highly transferable commercial and managerial skills.
  • An inspiring, high-energy, merit-based environment with ambitious peers.
Requirements
  • Undergraduate degree, no subsequent experience necessary
  • Track record of strong academic performance (minimum GPA of 3.3)
  • Extracurricular achievement throughout school and university
  • Internship experience evidencing an interest in business
  • Outstanding communication skills
  • Fluent English is required
  • Work authorization in the United States
    We don't sponsor visas but will consider applicants with STEM/OPT eligibility
Compensation and benefits
  • Expect total first-year compensation ranging from $90,000 (average performance) to $110,000 (very strong performance) consisting of (i) annual base salary of $75,000 and (ii) uncapped variable compensation linked to individual performance.
  • 17 vacation days, in addition to 10 public holidays, and business closure during winter holiday week.
  • Competitive medical, dental, and vision insurance.
  • 401(k) match - 4% of your total compensation matched dollar-for-dollar.
  • San Francisco: State-of-the-art office with amenities in the heart of San Francisco; option to WFH each Friday.
