    Job Description

    About the engagement:

    Apogee Global RMS is delivering a focused, strategy engagement to help a leading global executive institution sharpen its competitive position and chart a three-to-five-year growth strategy. The work spans a competitive market analysis, a three-region assessment (North America, Europe, and Asia), an organizational-structure and resource review, and a board-ready strategy delivered to institutional leadership.

    The engagement is led personally by the firm's Founder & Principal Advisor. We are seeking one capable, versatile professional to combine two supporting functions — hands-on strategy analysis and engagement program management — into a single role working directly alongside the Engagement Lead.

    Role overview:

    This is a dual role. Roughly three-quarters of your time is spent as an Associate Strategy Consultant — carrying a substantial share of the research, analysis, and drafting under the Lead's direction — and the balance as the engagement's Program Manager, owning the schedule, milestones, and coordination that keep a compressed 12-week engagement on track. You will own defined pieces of work end-to-end, with clear direction and review at each milestone.

    Key responsibilities:

    Strategy & analysis (Associate Strategy Consultant):

    • Support stakeholder interviews during the Week 1 Phoenix onsite; capture, synthesize, and circulate findings.
    • Design, administer, and analyze the stakeholder/market survey.
    • Conduct secondary market and competitive research; build the current-state baseline.
    • Contribute to the three-region assessment and the organizational-structure review.
    • Draft findings, regional memos, and sections of the strategy document for the Lead's review and authorship.
    • Prepare board-ready materials for the executive outbrief.

    Program management:

    • Own the engagement schedule and workplan across the twelve weeks and four phases (Discover, Diagnose, Design, Deliver).
    • Track progress against the three client milestones — Current Market Review (~Week 4), Draft Strategy (~Week 10), and Final Delivery (~Week 12) — and flag risks early.
    • Maintain action logs, status reporting, and version control; manage the engagement's document/data room.
    • Coordinate working sessions, the mid-point review (~Week 7), and onsite logistics for both Phoenix trips.

    Requirements

    Required qualifications:

    • Bachelor's degree and 2–4 years (or equivalent) in strategy, management consulting, corporate strategy, or a comparable analytical role.
    • Strong research, quantitative analysis, and business-writing skills; able to produce first drafts with light direction.
    • Demonstrated project or program coordination — scheduling, milestone tracking, and stakeholder communication.
    • Poised and credible in client-facing and executive settings.
    • Highly organized, reliable, and self-directed under a compressed timeline.
    • Proficiency with standard analysis and productivity tools (spreadsheets, slides, documents).
    • Availability of ~15–20 hours per week for the full 12 weeks, and ability to travel to Phoenix twice.

    Preferred qualifications:

    • Exposure to higher education or executive global-market strategy, or go-to-market work.
    • Familiarity with strategy frameworks and organizational assessment.
    • Survey design and analysis experience.
    • Formal project-management training (e.g., PMP or coursework) is a plus but not required.
