Then look no further, we have an exciting opportunity for a graduate to join YouGov, an international online research data and analytics technology group, in our commercial team.
On the graduate programme you will support the commercial team that is responsible for achieving sales targets for a specific group of accounts. Reporting into a Manager, you'll support specific account management and new business processes and tasks that aid achievement of the team's core objective.

- Monitor and record progress made against the team's targets.
- Maintain day-to-day client relationships.
- Work closely with the Client Services, Finance, Product, Legal and wider commercial teams.

- An interest in the power and use of research & data.
- Excellent problem-solving, analytical and numerical skills.
- Outstanding attention to detail.
- Ability to meet deadlines and manage time effectively.
- Educated to degree level or other equivalent professional qualification through formal study.
- A great work ethic and attitude to learn on the job.
It would be great if you had these too, but we'll support you if you don't:
- Experience using, and competence in, Microsoft Excel, PowerPoint and Word.
- Experience in sales or customer service roles in an office or otherwise.
What to expect from the hiring process:
- Call with Talent Partner.
