Research Associate, Content Library

Job Description

• Performing research on industries and businesses in the Pan-Asia region, with a focus on India, Southeast Asia and Australia, in order to source and identify the most relevant individuals (C-level executives and practitioners working at the heart of their industries) to take part in moderated interviews
• Engaging these individuals to invite them to participate in our research, while assessing and ensuring that their insights are relevant and their fees are within budget
• Building a professional network and monitoring the relevant markets/companies in the assigned sector areas according to Library content coverage strategies
• Working in tight deadlines and coordinating with internal and external stakeholders across different global offices

• The format is a 1-hour industry interview between our Sector analyst and 1 industry expert. The Sector Analyst is responsible to generate the projects and design the question list. The Associate will collaborate with one of our Sector Analysts (Third Bridge employee, like an internal client) on the projects to source the industry experts.
• Once the Sector Analyst assigns a project, the Associate will do some desktop research, and will be responsible for sourcing the Industry Expert we want to connect and invite for an industry interview. You need to find the most relevant individuals using LinkedIn, company websites, job boards, our own database and a lot more. Once you've found someone with the right background, you are then responsible for making contact with them. Most often, that comes in the form of a cold call. You will introduce Third Bridge and what we do, screen the individual background, assess whether they have the right experience/knowledge related to the project/topic and if they are the right fit for the topic, convince them to participate in our industry interviews.
• Something to consider about this role is that it is very outreach heavy, fast paced and metric oriented environment. In the first year the goal is to schedule industry interviews with 14-16 industry experts per month.

• Fluent in spoken and written English
• Bachelor degree or above
• Prior work/internship experience (1-2 years) is a must; the level of experience may vary, but what matters is your curiosity, drive and ambition
