  • Gartner Careers

About the role:

Have you seen the future? Do you look around and see what is happening and have a pretty good idea about how all these tendrils will come together, leading to a different outcome in the manufacturing sector than perhaps the general wisdom? We are looking for a candidate who understands the history and future of manufacturing, particularly how technology and business collide.

A strong knowledge of the major technology trends and how they are being implemented is important. Must have product development experience using PLM in a process industry (preferred), or in discrete manufacturing.

We need someone who feels comfortable talking to manufacturing C-suite executives and advising technology companies on how to approach the market. Knowledge of the broader process industry landscape, including how technology, regulation and society are changing and affecting chemicals, metals, paper and pulp, and F&B; are bonuses as well.

People who are creative and curious and have a desire to learn how things work are more interesting for this role than people who are content to rest on a mountain of knowledge. People who have pulled together and published reports, white papers and articles or have presented on stage are desirable.

A Director serves as a leader within Gartner's Research and Advisory sector, establishing oneself as a credible voice within their designated market at local, regional and global levels. Utilizing exceptional research and analytical skills, a Director plays a significant role in producing pragmatic and provocative research which Gartner clients consume and apply to propel their business toward key objectives.

They are a trusted source of advice for clients, reinforcing Gartner's value every day by engaging them via in-person meetings, virtual meetings, sales support visits, and Gartner conferences to discuss complex client challenges and offer appropriate recommendations.

What you will do:

  1. Create innovative, thought-provoking, and highly leveraged content.
  2. Develop new research and ideas through thought leadership and offer compelling, actionable approaches to client's needs and requests that accelerate the client's ability to act.
  3. Develop in-depth analysis to identify the root cause of a client's barriers or overall needs and reframe thinking to drive strategy forward.
  4. Demonstrate thought leadership in establishing research positions across a team of analysts.
  5. Research, analyze and predict market trends and shifts to provide clients and vendors with actionable insights.
  6. Provide clients and prospects with actionable advice aligned to their designated content area via virtual or face-to-face interactions.
  7. Create and deliver high-value presentation materials on and off stage for Gartner events, industry and professional association conferences, and client briefings.

Support Research and Sales.
