Strategist

for prose. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Ensure we have real content. Let's extract content. About Us paragraph: "The Freeman Company is a global leader in events, on a mission to redefine live for a new era. With a data-driven approach and the industry’s largest network of experts, The Freeman Company's insights shape exhibitions, exhibits, and events that drive audiences to action. The integrated full-service solutions leverage a 99-year legacy in event management as well as new technologies to deliver moments that matter." That's about company, could be part of About the role? Might be okay. Summary: "This is a business strategy role, not a marketing strategy role. Our Strategy & Insights practice lives at the intersection of consulting rigor and the fast-moving world of live events — and we're in the middle of building something genuinely new. We partner with in-person event organizers across the full strategic spectrum: helping thriving events optimize and grow and guiding struggling ones through meaningful turnarounds. What makes this moment special is that we're actively evolving into a high-performing consulting practice, and we're hiring a Strategist to join a fast-growing team: someone ready to bring their core consulting skills and grow into real ownership, leading client engagements, shaping how we work, and helping elevate those around them. If you're looking for a role where you can grow fast, contribute to something being built in real time, and see your impact on both clients and a team still taking shape, this is where that happens. You will help us scale and grow our Event Strategy and Profitable Growth capabilities, working directly with executive-level event organizers to drive community engagement and profitable revenue through in-person and online events. We're especially excited about candidates who bring an established consulting toolkit and a passion for problem-solving and innovation. This position will support our Growth team.

Benefits list: Medical, Dental, Vision Insurance; Tuition Reimbursement; Paid Parental Leave; Life, Accident and Disability; Retirement with Company Match; Paid Time Off. Pay: Salary range and bonus. Schedule: hybrid schedule 2-3 days per week in-office and/or show site. Locations: maybe part of About the role or Schedule? Could be under About the role as location eligibility. We must not create sections with filler. So we will create sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide what goes where. About the role: include About Us paragraph + Summary (including location list and hybrid schedule? but schedule separate). Maybe keep location list in About the role. Responsibilities: the Essential Duties & Responsibilities list. Requirements: Education & Experience (including degrees, years experience, etc). Could also include Travel up to 25%? Travel is separate but could be under Requirements? Might be better as its own but we have no Travel heading allowed; we could fold into Requirements as a bullet. Skills: list of skills like analytical, PowerPoint, AI tools, critical thinking, communication, organization, etc. Could extract from Education & Experience. But we must not duplicate content. If we put all Education & Experience under Requirements, we might not need Skills separate. However we need to avoid thin sections; maybe combine Requirements and Skills into one Requirements section? But headings are prescribed; we can omit Skills if not needed. The instruction: "Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It says e.g., not that we must use all. So we can omit Skills if we don't have distinct content. Better to have fewer substantive sections. Thus we can have: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Now we need to ensure we don't repeat info. Let's craft About the role prose: combine About Us paragraph and Summary (excluding location list? maybe include location list as part of About the role). We'll keep location list as a sentence. We must not repeat job title. We'll produce:
