Werken bij ZS Associates
Wie zijn wij
ZS Associates is one of the world’s largest business services firms specializing in transforming sales and marketing from an art to a science. We help clients gain market share at lower cost by creating data-driven strategies that they can implement rapidly. We also take on complex sales and marketing operations to make our clients more competitive.
ZS focuses exclusively on the two areas that create customer demand: sales and marketing. As a result, our expertise in this domain is both broad and deep. We provide a vast range of marketing- and sales-related services in the industry, from customer insight, product development, and sales and marketing strategies, to sales compensation planning and even plan administration, to name just a few. Our consultants leverage the firm’s deep knowledge of the range of sales and marketing activities and how they interact in order to anticipate the upstream and downstream effects of virtually any decision. Thus, we offer clients the unique advantage of understanding what will work best for their company as a whole.
Nearly 30 years ago, we helped pioneer the shift in commercial strategy from being determined largely by intuition to being driven by data. Our fundamental approach remains the same today: uncovering the truth through quantifiable facts of what works, informed by unrivaled experience and constant innovation. As a result, we possess deep expertise in what makes for successful sales and marketing, and we have built a global team of more than 2,000 highly trained professionals who are committed to this pursuit.
Since 1983, ZS has been working shoulder to shoulder with leaders at hundreds of the world’s top corporations. Our clients typically are large and mid-sized companies whose success depends on the effectiveness of their sales and marketing. We help them gather and analyze data to create the best strategies; orchestrate sales and marketing activities to increase demand efficiently; and change quickly to become more competitive. Our clients work with us year after year because we are responsive, collaborative and flexible – and, not least of all, because we are passionate about what we do.
Today more than ever, executives must drive their sales and marketing strategies and operations with data – and the expertise to interpret it. That’s where ZS comes in. We’re in the business of turning the art of demand generation into a science.
Wie wij zoeken voor onze traineeships
It's hard to explain exactly what you do to people who've never worked in consulting. You work for ZS, but you work for someone else, too—the client, who drives our business. Each client situation is different and requires a customized solution from a ZS team. Our work rests on several core tenets that allow us to add value to each client engagement:
Expertise
ZS is recognized around the world for our expertise in go-to-market and sales force strategies. Our offerings range from broad sales and marketing strategy development to detailed tactical implementation. ZS has a strong presence in the pharmaceutical and healthcare industries and 85% of ZS revenue comes from these sectors, yet we also apply our issue expertise to other targeted industries.
Client Value
The value we provide and the partnerships we create have made us one of the largest specialized sales and marketing firms in the world. Our history and expertise make us a valued partner of many Fortune 500 companies.
Collaboration
ZS is a high-energy workplace with a focus on project delivery, making it a fun and team-oriented environment. Work relationships are collegial not constrained by titles or levels. Individually, being an expert in all sales and marketing issues is impossible, but our collective knowledge and team focus allows each ZS team to deliver the best to every client.
Innovation
Innovation is central to our business. Practices and knowledge are always evolving, so we aim to constantly deliver fresh ideas and solutions to improve our clients' organizations. Some of that innovation will come from the global perspectives of your teammates, who may be in your office or around the world.
Internships
ZS has internship programs in select offices. We consider a limited number of outstanding students for internships during the summer prior to their final academic year. Internship candidates typically will be attending one of the institutions at which ZS conducts university recruiting, and internships are limited to the positions described below.
Internships are considered apprenticeships to our full-time positions. Interns are staffed with and work directly with client teams. Interns are evaluated and considered for full-time positions following completion of their degree.
