Growth Development Representative (Entry Talent Accelerator Program)

The Company You’ll Join: It is our mission to create an exceptional firm that betters the world of work. Through granular candidate insights, in-depth employer benchmarking, continuous market pulses, actionable strategies, and recruiting feedback platforms, the team at Veris Insights is advancing the way companies across North America approach recruiting, employer branding, DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion), and talent management. We work with hundreds of Fortune 1000 organizations to help them solve their hardest talent challenges and it is our aspiration to be nothing less than the single, unequivocal best partner to every one of these leaders in that pursuit.   The Team You’ll Join: You will join the Entry Talent Accelerator Program (ETA), a high-performance early-career development program designed for ambitious individuals looking to accelerate their growth in client-facing and revenue-generating environments.   As a Growth Development Representative, you will sit within our Growth & Marketing Division and serve as one of the first points of contact for senior Talent Acquisition and University Recruiting leaders interested in Veris Insights' work. Through strategic outreach and insights-driven conversations, you will help generate interest in our research memberships while developing communication, advisory, and executive-facing skills foundational to long-term career growth at the firm.    This is an outbound growth and business development role centered around high-volume communication and strategic prospecting. Growth Development Representatives spend a significant portion of their day conducting outbound outreach through phone, email, and LinkedIn, engaging senior leaders in thoughtful, data-informed conversations.   This role is best suited for individuals energized by fast-paced, high-volume communication environments and motivated by performance, growth, and continuous development.   How You’ll Grow:  The ETA Program is a structured, one-year accelerator designed to develop high-potential early-career talent through intensive mentorship, executive exposure, and hands-on client-facing experience.   Through the program, you will develop:   Public Speaking & Executive Presence: Build confidence and fluency in high-pressure communication environments through coaching, repetition, and real-time feedback.    Consultative Advisory Skills: Learn how to identify executive priorities, build credibility quickly, and guide strategic conversations with senior leaders.   Negotiation & Influence: Develop the ability to navigate high-stakes conversations with confidence, professionalism, and strong interpersonal judgement.   Data Interpretation & Insight Delivery: Learn how to quickly interpret research and data to support real-time, insight-driven advisory conversations.    Following the program, participants transition into broader client-facing and revenue-generating paths across the firm, including Member Experience Strategy Lead (our client success team), Partnership Lead (our renewals team), and Account Advisor roles (our new business team).   In addition to tailored career pathing and coaching, participants contribute to cross-functional strategy projects focused on innovation and firm growth, with opportunities to present findings directly to executive leadership.    Your Character:   Incisiveness. You quickly identify priorities, connect ideas, and thoughtfully diagnose challenges.   Executive Presence. You communicate with confidence, professionalism, warmth, and credibility across a wide range of audiences.    Results Orientation. You are motivated by performance, growth, accountability, and continuous improvement.   Intellectual Curiosity.
