London, United Kingdom Dods Group Full time

**About the role**

This is an exciting opportunity to become part of a highly-respected political intelligence team, providing market-leading intelligence services to ensure our clients stay ahead of political developments. We provide fast, focused, and comprehensive information and insight on the activities of legislatures, government, and a variety of stakeholders to clients across a wide range of sectors.

You’ll be part of a team of consultants, each of whom are experts in their respective policy areas and will be providing finger-on-the-pulse analysis to your clients within your sector on a daily basis.

**About the scheme**

By week three you will be placed with your first set of clients, who you will be the main point of contact for. Within six months it is anticipated that you will be the main point of contact for all the clients in your portfolio.

After six months it is projected that you will be promoted to the position of Junior Consultant where you will be expected to lead on research projects as necessary and gain experience with our content team. During these six months, there will be ongoing training opportunities in data analysis, policy formulation and public affairs. At this point, your salary will increase to £26,500.

Months 12-24 will be spent as a consultant, working towards becoming a respected authority within the industry on all issues relating to your specialist policy area and key stakeholders, with the potential opportunity to write articles for media publications and participate in broadcasting and panel discussions. Throughout this time, your salary will increase between £26,500 - £29,500 per year.

After two years on the development programme, it is anticipated that you will become a Senior Consultant, leading on set-piece briefings and taking on leadership responsibilities in the consultancy team.
