Event & Meeting Planner

Sentry · Stevens Point, WI · 1 mo ago
Full-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting starts with description: "Our Event and Meeting Planners provide effective project management support of meetings and events." That's like a summary. Then "What You'll Do" list of duties. Then "What It Takes" list of qualifications. Then "Here is what you can look forward to as part of our team:" which includes benefits and other details. Then "Why Join Sentry?" etc. Also "Building on a Legacy", "Your Career, Our Community", "Ready to own your future?" etc. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. Use

for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections apply. We have content: description of role (About the role). Responsibilities: the "What You'll Do" bullet list. Requirements/Qualifications/Skills: "What It Takes" includes education, experience, etc. Could split into Requirements (education, experience) and Qualifications/Skills (specific abilities). But we can combine into one section if we want fewer sections. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (including qualifications/skills), Benefits. Pay and Schedule only if present. The posting mentions Hybrid Flexibility: optional work from home Mondays/Fridays, office Tue-Thu. That's schedule info. So we can include Schedule section. Pay: not mentioned specific salary, so we should NOT create Pay section. Benefits: there is a benefits section with many items. So include Benefits. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate like EEO, application instructions, etc. Also remove "Talent Acquisition Specialist Thank you for your interest in Sentry! Katelynne Rivera Katelynne.Rivera@Sentry.com Equal Employment Opportunity ..." That's boilerplate; remove. We need to preserve all substantive information. So include the description paragraphs, the bullet lists, the benefits details, schedule details, etc. We need to use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

    for prose. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's extract content. First paragraph: "Our Event and Meeting Planners provide effective project management support of meetings and events." That's about the role. Then "What You'll Do" heading (but we will not reuse that heading; we will use

    Responsibilities

    and list items. List items under What You'll Do: - Develop and implements all aspects of small to medium-size events and meeting planning requirements. - Work directly with a Lead Planner on tasks pertaining to the event. - Ensure timely and effective implementation of all operational aspects of a meeting or event. - Create program documentation to include agendas, event portfolios, overviews, budgets and proposals. - Meet with business leadership to understand specific events and meeting needs. - Presents basic to moderately complex event plans and outcomes to the business, including executives, ensuring a clear understanding on how their vision is being supported. - Provide regular updates to business stakeholders on event progress - Researches and responds to event related issues as they arise. - Participate in planning and scheduling to establish deadlines and ensure the timely completion of independent tasks, short and long-term projects. - Create and maintain detailed project plans for assigned programs to ensure all projects are handled appropriately and completed in timely manner. - Submit requests into the marketing project management system to create physical and digital event assets. - Collaborate across marketing teams to ensure projects are completed according to timelines. - Prepare cost summary and recommendation for Director of Meetings and Events and stakeholder review/approval. - Compose and edit communications for meetings and events to ensure all internal and external stakeholders are knowledgeable of events taking place. Note some grammar issues but we keep as is. Then "What It Takes" heading. We'll make a section maybe Requirements (or Qualifications). We'll include bullet list. List: - Bachelors Degree or equivalent work experience. - Minimum of 5 years related work experience. - Experience in event management and hospitality industry. - Experience with virtual events preferred. - Knowledge of safety and risk mitigation measures to execute events in a safe and secure environment. - Ability to work within specific time limitations and deadlines. - Willing to travel extensively, work a flexible schedule that includes evenings and weekends. - Strong organizational and interpersonal communication skills including political acumen and social perceptiveness. - Ability to provide outstanding and positive customer service to all stakeholders and levels of management. - Demonstrated positive attitude and flexibility with change management. - Excellent judgment, decision-making and problem recognition/avoidance/resolution skills, including skill in determining those issues/problems that need to be brought to management's attention. - Proficient in the use of personal computers, automated systems, and software applications including Word, Excel and PowerPoint. We could split into Requirements (education, experience) and Skills (abilities). But we can combine into one section "Requirements". The instruction says we can have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We could have Requirements and Qualifications separate but we prefer fewer sections. Let's do About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (covers education/experience), Benefits, Schedule. That's four sections. But we also have "What It Takes" includes skills like organizational, communication, etc. Those could be considered Requirements as well. So fine. Now Benefits section: from "Here is what you can look forward to as part of our team:" includes: - Hybrid Flexibility: Enjoy the best of both worlds. With optional work from home on Mondays and Fridays and join your team in the office Tuesday through Thursday to collaborate and learn. We provide the technology and tools you need for both your office and home workspace from day one. - Dining on Us: Depending on your location, we may provide a stipend that can be used at our on-site cafeteria or a meal allowance to keep you fueled. - Continuous Learning: Unlock your potential through Sentry University and take advantage of our tuition reimbursement program. - Comprehensive Benefits: We support your whole self with group medical, dental, and vision insurance along with parental leave, pet insurance, caregiver leave, and wellness resources. Options for HSA, FSA, and Dependent Care FSA are available. - Work-Life Balance: Enjoy your generous Paid Time Off allowance to rest and take advantage of paid Volunteer Time Off to support your community. - Investing in Your Future: We’re committed to your long-term financial well-being. We offer a 100% company match on the first 8% you contribute to your 401(k) each pay period, and those funds vest immediately. - Giving Back: Through the Sentry Foundation, we’re proud to support the United Way and make a difference in our communities. Also there is "Why Join Sentry?" etc. That's more marketing fluff but still substantive? It includes recognition, legacy, etc. Might be considered not required but could be included as part of About the role? The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we should keep that info too. Where to put? Could be part of About the role or a separate section like "About Sentry". But we only allowed headings from list. Could we add a section like "About the role" and include that info there? The About the role currently only has the first sentence. We could expand About the role to include the company description, legacy, etc. That seems appropriate: About the role could include description of the team and company. However the instruction says use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have About the role heading and include all descriptive paragraphs about the role and company. That would be substantive. Thus About the role section will contain: - "Our Event and Meeting Planners provide effective project management support of meetings and events." - Then the paragraphs about Why Join Sentry, Building on a Legacy, Your Career, Our Community, Ready to own your future? etc. Also the Talent Acquisition Specialist etc? That's boilerplate; we remove. We need to remove EEO etc. Also remove "Talent Acquisition Specialist Thank you for your interest in Sentry! Katelynne Rivera Katelynne.Rivera@Sentry.com". That's contact info; maybe considered boilerplate; remove. Thus About the role will have multiple paragraphs. Now Responsibilities section as above. Requirements section: we need to decide what to include. Could include education/experience etc. We'll put the bullet list from What It Takes. Benefits section: list from Here is what you can look forward to. Schedule section: we have Hybrid Flexibility details (optional work from home Mondays/Fridays, office Tue-Thu). That's schedule info. Also mention "Willing to travel extensively, work a flexible schedule that includes evenings and weekends." That's also schedule/requirements but we already have that in Requirements. But schedule section should contain the hybrid flexibility details. We'll put that. We must not create Pay section. Now ensure we don't repeat content. The flexible schedule appears both in Requirements (Willing to travel extensively, work a flexible schedule that includes evenings and weekends.) and Benefits (Hybrid Flexibility). We'll keep both as they are distinct: one is a requirement, the other is a benefit. That's fine. Now we need to output HTML. Structure:
