What makes Gartner Research and Advisory a GREAT fit for you? When you join Gartner, you'll be part of a team that values intellectual curiosity, objective insights and expert advice while driving organizations to make smarter, faster decisions on their most critical priorities.

About this role and what you bring it:

As the Vice President, TM, you will lead a high performing and diverse team of advisors within Gartner's CIO & Industries Practice. Your team brings Gartner's insights, best practices, and tools to life for CIOs and their leadership teams across a broad range of world class clients. Your team inspires and motivates clients by helping them understand the "why behind the what" and partnering with them to accomplish their priorities.

You are a connector manager - you know when to dive deep and coach, and you know when to elevate and connect. You find ways of supporting each team member while carving out time to think and act strategically.

You have an entrepreneurial mindset, you embody a culture of continuous improvement, and you inspire your extended teams to do so. You are a world-class team player.

You break silos to build networks that allow your team to deliver to their highest potential. You balance strategic thinking with day-to-day realities of managing. Your team interfaces with CIOs and their leadership teams to foster deep, broad relationships and help them elevate, and in doing so, you sense patterns among client needs to guide the research agenda and event calendar. As advisors, your team also supports revenue partners in commercial engagements.
