Awful - Marketing Associate World Gold Council Employee Review

Compensation, training, writing presentations in order to get more investors to invest in gold

The most challeng aspect of this job was creating a presentation that satisfied our client

High level intake with most entrants holding MBA qualifications and significant prior experience. Strong connections with banks with which gold backed products are developed and a good reputation in the industry. Launched the first Physically gold backed ETF with assets under management of $70bn at one time. Global influence with projects in US, China and India. Remuneration very good with a strong bonus program. Culture has a consultancy feel.

Partially funded by commercial revenue-generating projects and partially be mining company subscriptions. The latter can be variable depending on mining company budgets set on an annual basis which sometimes makes longer term project planning more of a challenge. Was also strong in developing marketing projects for the jewelry sector however funding now more focused on developing investment demand for gold.
