Overview

This role is the strategic engine behind the President of the Americas. It sits at the intersection of commercial strategy, executive decision-making, and cross-functional alignment for the company’s largest and fastest-growing region. The person in this seat becomes the President’s closest strategic partner—operating with broad visibility, deep analytical responsibility, and direct influence across the business.

This is not an analyst role. It’s a high-impact, high-exposure strategic position designed for someone who can think, communicate, and lead at an executive level.

Key Mandate

Build the long-range growth strategy for the Americas, drive annual operating and revenue planning, and serve as the connective force across senior leadership to ensure clarity, alignment, and execution.

Core Responsibilities

Strategic Planning & Growth Architecture

• Lead development of the 5-year Americas strategic plan.
• Own annual revenue projections, forecasting, and scenario modeling.
• Build and manage the Annual Operating Plan (AOP).

Executive Communication & Storytelling

• Create Board-level communication packages.
• Develop business-wide messaging tied to strategy and execution.
• Translate complex data into clear, persuasive narratives.

Cross-Functional Alignment & Issue Resolution

• Serve as the point of integration across Sales, Marketing, Finance, Operations, and Global teams.
• Step in when challenges span multiple leaders and drive solutions forward.
• Lead high-priority projects that accelerate growth and operational clarity.

Executive Partnership

• Operate as the President’s strategic partner and "right hand".
• Provide insight, structure, and analytical clarity that shape commercial direction.
• Maintain pulse across functions to ensure synchronized execution.

Profile of Success

- Strategic Thinker with the ability to structure ambiguity into coherent plans.

- Analytical Athlete with deep Excel fluency and intellectual rigor.

- Influential Communicator who can present, persuade, and align senior leaders.

- Relationship-Driven with strong partnership instincts.

- Project Leader capable of orchestrating multi-stakeholder execution.

Why This Role Is Different

The person in this role will learn more about the business than anyone other than the President. It offers unmatched visibility, breadth, and career acceleration—"a better development path than any MBA program." This is a rare opportunity for a high-potential strategist to plug directly into executive leadership and shape the future of a high-growth division.

Compensation & Structure

• Base Salary: up to $150,000
• Bonus: 13% target
• Work Model: Chicago-based hybrid (strongly preferred), open to exceptional non-local candidates
• Travel: ~20% domestic + international
