The great thing about being a Client Manager at Gartner is that there are no regular days. I might have a client workshop or presentation, an internal solutioning session, research, time spent on client deliverables for an engagement, or many other activities. Studying at Cardiff Business School really developed my critical thinking, problem solving and presentation skills, all of which come in handy every day.

With their support, you’ll have opportunities to undertake work placements, tackle live business projects, collaborate with our entrepreneurs in residence, as well as attend guest lectures, field trips and workshops.
