About Dialectica

Founded in 2015, Dialectica is one of the fastest growing startups in United Kingdom and Greece, currently employing 100+ professionals.

Here at Dialectica, we are on a mission to achieve unparalleled customer recognition as the most trusted knowledge sharing platform in the world and to build a truly great organization that attracts and cultivates top talent.

They turn to us to support their strategic decision making by connecting them with industry experts with extensive knowledge and experience of industries or markets of interest.

As we continue to scale up, we are looking to grow our team by 50% in 2019 and as such we will be hiring Research Analysts on a rolling basis.

Ideal Candidate

At Dialectica we don’t believe in “one size fits all” approach.

During your employment we will provide you with intense training and professional development opportunities to help you excel in your role, among other things

About the role
