What you will do

Researching vital information on companies, executives, contact information and investment statuses, adding, checking and updating records in Salesforce.

For each new executive search, you will:

• Identify the relevant companies within the agreed industry and search criteria, ensuring they are recorded in Salesforce.
• Research the people holding the target role at each company and add or update their records.
• Identify and record each company’s wider executive leadership team, supporting the team’s referral and business development conversations.
• Check existing records, fill information gaps and keep data accurate, consistent and organised.
• Make sure the research and sales teams have complete data ready to use.
• Help establish a repeatable research and data-entry process for every new search.

For example, when we begin a CEO search in Building Products, you will ensure Salesforce contains the relevant companies, their CEOs and their wider executive leadership teams.

This is a focused research and data-entry role. There are no sales or candidate calls.
