Graduate Business Development - Community Analyst Graduate Business Development - Community Analyst Harmonic get great people and great organisations to work in tune together. And following a bumper start to 2019, we’re looking for five talented people to help us expand our reach into exciting new markets. As one of our third intake of Community Analysts for Spring/Summer 2019, the position offers you the opportunity to shape the future direction of one of London’s most exciting start-ups. And to do this while working in one of the coolest, most creative workplaces right in the centre of the Stables Market, Camden Town, London. Combining business development, networking, research, marketing and commercial negotiations, Harmonic Community Analysts will be taken through a broad education in recruitment business development which offers unrivalled career progression. About Harmonic: Harmonic supply the finance and operations professionals who make our clients be brilliant. Focussing on filling roles ranging from Chief Financial Officers through to Operations Directors, we work with some of the most exciting organisations in Europe, ranging from ground-breaking technology start-ups and record labels through to major fashion brands. The recurring theme across our customers is ‘non-corporate’ businesses: if a company aren’t innovative and values-driven, then they aren’t the right fit for us. Led by Charlie Walker, the youngest-ever recipient of the prestigious Recruitment International ‘Entrepreneur of the Year Award’, Harmonic is our founder’s second business (having built his first to a £30 million turnover operation aged just 24 back in 2008). Charlie is also regarded as a thought leader within the London business community and is often asked to speak on topics including Leadership and Values In Business. We care about doing business the right way - in an ethical way- and are the lead Sponsor for the Getahead Festival-a mental health and well-being not-for-profit organisation focused on bringing people together and helping each other ‘get ahead’. Charlie and his co-founder Fin Glanvill are passionate about operating working cultures where values underpin everything. And where colleagues are rewarded for what they have contributed to the growth of the business. Their intention is for the senior management team of 2021 to be 90% comprised of former Community Analysts . The Role: Community Analyst is the first rung on the Harmonic career development programme. The position is a broad introduction to recruitment and staffing, which focusses upon the development of business development skills (80% phone, 10% meetings, 10% marketing and events) and the building of a trusted community of candidates within a niche marketplace. Daily and weekly targets will be used during your training so if you don’t thrive in a competitive environment (albeit a super-friendly one), then this probably isn’t the role for you. We expect successful candidates to make promotion to Senior Community Analyst between their fifth and eight months in the job.

Harmonic Group is going places. And quickly. You should therefore expect to work long hours when needed, and not be too phased by the prospect of competition. However, while we expect our colleagues to apply themselves, we also pride ourselves on being model employers. Our working environment is supportive and empathetic, with advice and coaching on hand when needed outside of our regular review process. Above all, our three core values: Knowledge, Respect and Community aren't just there for PR purposes, they underpin everything we do internally as a business, as well as externally. And although we’re fans of great British tailoring, we only pull out the suits and formal dress for client meetings and parties. It’s important to us that you’re able to work comfortably and express your own personality. In keeping with this, our offices are based out of Labs, Camden- voted London’s most vibrant work space no less ()- where we work alongside some of Europe's most exciting creative and technology businesses. As a Labs Camden member, you will gain regular access to talks by entrepreneurs ranging from the founder of Boiler Room through to the CEO of Barclays. We even have our own magazine.
