Job title: Content Manager (Research) - Across TMT, CGS, Healthcare, EI, FBS & RE
Position summary
The Content Manager serves as the subject matter expert within any of the PODS (Technology, Media & Telecommunications, Consumer Goods Services, Healthcare, Energy & Industrials, Financial and Business Services & Real Estate) and owns its expert research content coverage for the assigned sub-sector. The role identifies the companies, themes and investor questions that warrant coverage; defines and validates the Experts profiles needed; designs differentiated interview agendas; leads human-moderated one-to-one interviews; and develops recurring programs for execution by Associates. The Content Manager reviews content for research quality and relevance and works with Associates and Compliance through publication.

The Content Manager must also understand relevant credit, private-market and other investor perspectives well enough to assess the sub-sector broadly; ask incisive questions; challenge superficial answers; and produce content that leaves investors materially better informed.
