WHAT YOU'LL DO
The Industry Solutions team serves as subject matter experts—driving growth for clients and colleagues alike. We partner with the Sales and Customer Success teams to raise the bar and push our clients’ marketing strategies forward.
We use data to tell powerful stories about what’s happening in the industry, and to support our challenging of the status quo. We embrace a testing culture, using what we learn to push our clients (and ourselves) to continuously evolve.
We are generous with our time and our minds, working across several functions and departments. Individual contribution is critical to success on/as a team, but we encourage collaboration, believing that more eyes are always better as we pursue the best possible result. We value all perspectives and think of ourselves as “dot connectors” within the organization.
Our team members have diverse backgrounds and experiences—including former top-tier consultants, CRM leads, industry specialists, creative and brand strategists, data analysts, and more. Together, we work to foster an open culture of curiosity in which team members are free (and even encouraged) to submit passion projects that they believe will create value for the business—ranging anywhere from automated solutions for our Sales team, to creative propositions for our clients, and beyond. As such, we are looking for creative, intellectually curious people to take a seat at the table alongside us and expand our capacity to serve the business and our clients.
