About the Department:
The Client Group is one of AB’s largest strategic business units, with functions that range considerably throughout the firm.

The Strategic Sales & Service department is a critical function within our organization that is responsible for the sales and servicing of AllianceBernstein’s mutual funds and separately managed account products, in direct partnership with our external sales force, in our U.S. Retail distribution channel. The department’s primary objectives are to promote sales and distribution of the firm’s proprietary investment services through third-party distribution channels while gaining a thorough understanding of client needs, assist in the development of relevant sales ideas, create outcome-oriented solutions for our clients and to support our clients in the development of sound business practices.
What You’ll Do:
The Client Group Summer Internship Program provides students with opportunities to learn about business development, client service, sales, and specific strategies we offer to clients, as well as the opportunity to develop their communication, networking, and problem-solving skills.
