Consultant - Client Development Dubai, UAE-01802
Gallup

Description

Gallup Consulting is different from most consulting firms. While other organizations provide services in traditional disciplines like cost reduction, building or re-engineering processes and systems, or mergers and acquisitions, Gallup helps companies drive true organic growth -- revenue and profit increases from continuing operations. Advances in economics, psychology, and management sciences -- along with Gallup's own research -- have led our researchers to discover how organizations can grow by developing highly engaged customers and building powerful, engaged workforces of talented employees.

The Opportunity

At Gallup, Client Development Consultants are responsible for managing and expanding our client relationships. These consultants are experts at understanding and deconstructing the business model of a client organization, identifying underlying business problems, and leveraging Gallup's extensive research to develop strategies and solutions that yield tremendous value for our clients.

Simply put, the role of the Client Development Consultant is to diagnose business problems, develop strategies to address those problems, and scope and manage solutions that have a significant impact on our clients' success.

These consultants are leaders - they are expected to lead teams of Gallup consultants who help clients understand their organizations and their customers in new and powerful ways. Consultants in this role typically begin by working as a collaborative member of a consulting team, and then graduate to successive levels of leadership and responsibility as they demonstrate their effectiveness.

Unlike other consulting organizations, Client Development Consultants begin working directly with clients within their first months at Gallup and gain tangible responsibility quickly. While consultants will understand and master Gallup's research and science behind its core practice areas, they also have the opportunity to contribute to our thinking and to have client impact from the beginning of their careers at Gallup.

To be successful, candidates for the Client Development Consultant position should possess:
• Track record of outstanding results in their education, activities, and previous positions
• Strong sense of mission and purpose, and a desire to have a significant impact on Gallup clients' organizations
• Aptitude to understand how to effectively apply Gallup science and research to challenging business problems, and the courage to influence senior-level decision makers
• Ability to create strong and productive relationships with clients, collaborate with internal team members, and to communicate Gallup concepts and constructs in clear, succinct, and compelling ways
• Drive and commitment to build a long-term career as a world-class consultant, having an impact on Gallup's global client set

Client Development Consultants participate in an extensive training program to learn Gallup's core practice areas and its approach to consulting. They have the opportunity to work with clients in a variety of industries and receive regular feedback, coaching and development, and opportunities for advancement.

Qualifications

An MBA or other graduate degree is required. Three years of management consulting or business development experience in the Middle East is preferred.
