Who are We?

The Corporate Executive Board is a leading provider of best practices research, executive education seminars, customised research briefs, and decision support tools to the world's largest and most prestigious corporations.

Currently, CEB provides its integrated set of services to a network of more than 10,000 senior leaders at more than 3,000 companies worldwide. With more than 80% of the Fortune 500 including more than 80% of Fortune 500 companies and 75% of the FTSE 100 as members, we have built one of the world's premier executive networks with practices in broad functional areas including communications, human resources, finance & financial services, legal, operations, sales & marketing, strategy, and technology. CEB currently employs more than 2,000 full-time staff, including approximately 300 in our London office.

What Do We Do?

If you assembled the chief marketing officers of the world's most progressive companies in a room and asked them to list their top challenges, what issues do you suppose would make their list? How about chief financial officers, corporate strategists, or chief information officers - what do you imagine keeps them up at night?

Now what if your job was to answer those questions - to scour the world's best companies for solutions to these tough problems and to teach your insights to key corporate decision makers?

That is what we do. The Corporate Executive Board identifies the most pressing business challenges that the world's leading executives are wrestling with, and then we tap our network of member companies to discover the best strategies currently being employed to address them.

Our business formula combines shared cost research economics and a membership-based client model, allowing us to provide data and insight at the quality standard of the premier strategy consulting firms but at a fraction of the cost. The formula also creates a closed loop for research: Each year, our clients develop a list of their most pressing business problems and then serve as case studies in our best practices research on these issues. We are guided by a strong sense of stewardship for our members' confidences and financial contributions, and we strive in each interaction to achieve a level of service that is unparalleled in their commercial experience.

Our People Are Our Strength...

At CEB, we value different backgrounds and experiences because we think this diversity enhances our ability to serve our membership of over 3,000 leading organisations spanning 30 countries and 6 continents. Ask any of our employees what attracted them to CEB and you'll almost always get the same answer – "the people." Our people are our most valuable resource - the dynamic combination of over 2,000 professionals from a variety of backgrounds creates a unique environment that is both inviting and rewarding.

The Corporate Executive Board seeks two attributes in its employees. The first is force of intellect, the ability to move with some analytic rigour from topic to topic, industry to industry. The second attribute is a spirit of generosity. We value ideas and the words used to express them, and we encourage open debate and cooperative problem solving. We work hard, yet still find the time to cultivate ourselves both professionally and socially. We pride ourselves not only in upholding a spirit of generosity with our members, but also with our colleagues and peers.

Working at CEB will allow you to satisfy your intellectual curiosity and career goals, whether it be by interacting daily with industry leaders and chief executives, researching the plethora of business topics that our members value, or carrying out one of many other projects. CEB provides superior career growth opportunities in a meritocratic environment.
