Hi The posted one is the matlab input. I got a cell array,in which each cell has entire above mentioned data. each cell has different attribute for manager of the associate field.
and it has a empty line between every two lines. Thank You

This description as a text does not enlighten me. What is "the Matlab input"? Each cell has the data? Do you mean a cell string? With one line per cell element, or with one string and line breaks?
Again I suggest to post Matlab code due to the unbeatable clarity.

Solution with a regexp:
regexp(s, '(?<=associate:).*(?=Start)', 'match')
where s contains your string.
EDIT: the following would work as well..
regexp(s, '(?<=[^)]:).*(?=Start Date)', 'match')
..does anybody have a simpler pattern proposal?

b='Manager of this associate';
e='Start Date';
ib=strfind(str,b);
ie=strfind(str,e);
str(ib+length(b):ie-1)
