About the Client Group
The Client Group is one of AB's largest strategic business units, with functions that span sales and client service, business development, marketing, and product development. The Client Group manages the lifecycle of an investment offering, from identifying market opportunities and developing investment solutions to creating compelling messaging, distributing products, and serving institutional and retail clients around the world.
Through close partnership with investment teams and business leaders across the firm, the Client Group plays a critical role in connecting AB's capabilities with client needs and driving the firm's growth.
The Client Group Summer Internship Program offers opportunities to learn about business development, client service, sales, marketing, product development, and the investment strategies AB provides to clients. The experience also supports the development of communication, networking, analytical, and problem-solving skills through firmwide onboarding, ongoing training, mentoring, senior-leader sessions, networking, and social events.
