## About the Role

AlphaSights is composed of ambitious professionals committed to accelerating progress for our clients and helping them make more informed decisions. As a Legal & Compliance Associate, you will join our high-performing global Client Protection team. This team works closely with our core service delivery teams to ensure our clients are always served to the highest compliance standards while enabling AlphaSights’ fast-growing commercial success.

Your role involves monitoring client requests, developing and implementing new policies and compliance products, anticipating potential business roadblocks, training employees, and providing daily guidance and advice to our delivery teams. Success in this role requires quick and critical thinking, meticulous attention to detail, and strong verbal and written communication.

You will manage several short-term and long-term requests simultaneously, rapidly developing effective skills in communication, prioritization, and project and client management.

## Responsibilities

    
- Monitor active projects to flag and mitigate potential risks.
    
- Provide guidance to delivery teams on the projects they are working on.
    
- Collaborate with regional and global teams on long-term projects to anticipate, develop, and set cutting-edge industry standards in this rapidly growing sector.
    
- Partner with key internal global stakeholders to drive progress and implement behavioral and procedural enhancements.
    
- Design and implement global operational policies and processes that protect our clients.
    
- Create and deliver tailored in-person and e-learning training sessions for our delivery teams.

This is a fast-paced, cross-functional role with a clear focus on problem-solving, attention to detail, creative thinking, innovation, and results. Legal & Compliance Associates who succeed at AlphaSights often build successful careers in compliance, risk, or operational leadership.

- Being a people-oriented, emotionally intelligent team player with the ability to de-escalate situations patiently, calmly, yet quickly and effectively.
    
- Strong communication skills—the ability to convey complex topics clearly and effectively both in writing and in person.
    
- Being a critical thinker comfortable assessing complex situations and making nuanced decisions based on policies and processes.

## Requirements
