Manager, Trade Shows (Remote)
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Output ONLY the HTML fragment — no /, no markdown code fences.
Thus we need to decide which sections to include. The posting includes:
- What You Will Do: responsibilities (list of duties)
- Required: Bachelor’s degree 8+ years’ work experience in marketing, communications, events or related field
- Preferred: Previous people leader experience; Experience managing production requirements and timelines of trade show production
- Pay Ranges: multiple ranges (USN, US5, US10, US15, US20, US30) with amounts.
- Benefits: Health benefits list; Financial benefits list.
- Posted Date: 09/21/2026; This role will be posted for a minimum of 3 days. United States of America. Possibly location info. Could be considered metadata; we can put in a short
maybe under a generic "Details" but we have no heading for that. The instructions say we can fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. So we could include a
with posted date and location.
We need to avoid sections with placeholder text. We have real content for Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe "Required" as Requirements), Preferred (maybe "Skills" or "Qualifications"?). We have Pay and Benefits sections.
We need to use headings:
for section headings. Which headings to use? The list includes: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We have responsibilities (What You Will Do) -> heading Responsibilities
. Then we have Required (Bachelor's degree etc.) -> could be Requirements
. Preferred (people leader experience, managing production) -> could be Skills
or Qualifications
. Since we already used Requirements for required qualifications, we could put Preferred under Skills
or Preferred Qualifications
but only allowed headings from list. "Skills" is allowed. So we can put Preferred under Skills.
Pay: we have pay ranges -> heading Pay
.
Benefits: health and financial benefits -> heading Benefits
.
We might also include a short paragraph for posted date/location: maybe under a heading? Not needed; we can just include a
before sections.
We must not repeat job title as heading. Good.
We must use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So responsibilities list: we need to convert the paragraph into bullet points. The responsibilities are many sentences; we can split into logical bullet points. Must preserve all substantive information; we cannot invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep each piece of info as a bullet, but we can break sentences into bullets as long as we keep all info. Let's extract responsibilities from "What You Will Do" paragraph:
"The Manager, Trade Shows will lead the trade show strategy for the Medical division, and be responsible for the strategic planning, execution and continuous evolution of trade shows, related customer events and executive engagements, activations, and other key meetings. You will work closely with marketing, commercial, cross-divisional partners and leadership teams to create innovative, customer-centric experiences that strengthen brand presence. Expect to drive best practices, uphold operational excellence, and long-term event strategy to maximize engagement, impact, and return on investment across the division. Influence marketing and commercial teams in determining which trade shows are strategically critical, how Stryker Medical should exhibit and who should be in attendance at the show. Lead the execution of complex, high-visibility, multi-business unit trade shows and activations, ensuring operational excellence, brand consistency, and a best-in-class representation of the Stryker brand across all touchpoints Execute trade show events ensuring consistency and collaboration while following established guidelines, processes, procedures and tools. Educate cross-functional teams, provide direction and establish solutions where appropriate. Architect and elevate transformative, customer-centric experiences that showcase Stryker’s innovation, deepen strategic relationships, and redefine how the Medical engages customers. Collaborate with MarCom on the design and layout and manage cost and construction of exhibits. Run the talent offense of attracting, developing, engaging, and aligning talent. Establish performance goals for the direct reporting team and lead a culture of engagement, performance, and accountability. Consistently monitor performance and align with broader Medical divisional strategy. Develops and manages a comprehensive event project plan for all set up tasks, product needs, collateral, bookings and other details. Negotiates with vendors and service providers for best arrangements within budget. Maintains relationships with Medical’s key industry and trade associations. Establish and institutionalize best-in-class frameworks, standards, and playbooks to enable scalability, consistency, and continuous evolution of pre, post and during event function. Own performance measurement and portfolio optimization, including defining and tracking KPIs, driving qualified lead generation, evaluating ROI and commercial impact, and using data-driven insights to continuously refine strategy, investment, and execution. Develop tracking and measurement tools and processes. Work with Demand Generation Team to ensure leads are distributed and followed up in a timely manner. Recognize opportunities to sponsor conference sessions that align with marketing goals. Identify and investigate new trade show marketing opportunities based on business priorities and goals."
We need to turn each sentence into bullet points, but we must not lose any detail. Could combine some but must keep all info. Safer to make each sentence a bullet.
Now Required: "Bachelor’s degree 8+ years’ work experience in marketing, communications, events or related field". That's a single sentence; we can bullet it.
Preferred: two items: "Previous people leader experience" and "Experience managing production requirements and timelines of trade show production". We'll bullet each.
Pay: we have multiple ranges: USN: $89,300 - $148,800 USD Annual; US5: $93,800 - $156,200 USD Annual; US10: $98,200 - $163,700 USD Annual; US15: $102,700 - $171,100 USD Annual; US20: $107,200 - $178,600 USD Annual; US30: $116,100 - $193,400 USD Annual. We'll bullet each.
Benefits: Health benefits list: "Medical and prescription drug insurance, dental insurance, vision insurance, critical illness insurance, accident insurance, hospital indemnity insurance, personalized healthcare support, wellbeing program and tobacco cessation program." That's a list; we can bullet each item.
Financial benefits: "Health Savings Account (HSA), Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs), 401(k) plan, Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP), basic life and AD&D insurance, and short-term disability insurance." Bullet each.
Also there is a sentence about Stryker offers innovative products... That's maybe not a benefit but could be considered company description; but we might keep as a paragraph under Benefits? It's not a benefit per se but it's substantive info. The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include that somewhere. Could be a
under Benefits or separate section like "About the company". But we only have allowed headings list; we could add a
after Benefits without a heading. That's okay as long as we don't create a heading with filler. So we can add a paragraph after Benefits.
Also there is: "Depending on customer requirements employees and new hires in sales and field roles that require access to customer accounts as a function of the job may be required to obtain various vaccinations as an essential function of their role." That's also substantive; we can include as a paragraph.
Also "View the U.S. work location and transparency guide to find the pay range for your location." That's a link/instruction; maybe considered boilerplate? It's not a legal/EEO but it's a reference. Might be considered application instruction? It's not exactly application instruction but it's a directive to view guide. Could be considered minor metadata; we could drop it or fold into a short
. The instruction says we can fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. So we could include a short
with that sentence.
Also "Posted Date: 09/21/2026 This role will be posted for a minimum of 3 days. United States of America". That's metadata; we can include a short
.
Now we need to ensure we don't create sections with placeholder text. All sections have real content.
Now produce HTML fragment: start with maybe a
for posted date/location, then
Responsibilities
... etc.
We must not include markdown code fences. Just raw HTML.
Let's craft.
We need to be careful about escaping any special characters like &, but it's fine.
We'll produce:
