In addition, the team also leads governance activities, including generating content and setting the narrative for C-suite, Board of Directors, and Investor meetings. To achieve those objectives, the VBG Strategy team works cross-functionally with business unit leaders and other corporate stakeholders (i.e., Finance, Network, Product, Corporate Development, etc.). The portfolio of work spans all of VBG’s go-to-market customer segments - Global Enterprise, Small and Medium Business, Public Sector, and Global Wholesale.

• Synthesizing complex ideas into simple concepts to effectively communicate with senior leaders

• Evaluating the competitive landscape and the broader ecosystem, not only for benchmarking purposes but also for acquisitions, investments, divestitures, and partnership opportunities

• Identifying opportunities and gaps across all of VBG’s segments

What we’re looking for...

You'll need to have:

• Bachelor's degree or four or more years of work experience

• Six or more years of relevant experience required, demonstrated through one or a combination of work and/or military experience, or specialized training.
