About the role:
The Director, Business Strategy, is a crucial role that will engage with clients to analyze their businesses, identify the highest return on investment problems to solve, and tactical solutions to do so. Specifically, this entails:

• Applying the fundamental VAM framework to workshop participants
• Reviewing ‘pre-work’ from attendees and determining key questions, a hypothesized constraint, and potential action steps for the client business
• Consulting individually with attendee businesses in round-table sessions during the workshop
• Maintaining relationships with client businesses throughout the lifetime of their relationship with Acquisition.com

Partnering with the portfolio team to create frameworks, playbooks, and other assets to deliver consulting at scale

This role demands a mastery level of business acumen, client interaction, and on-the-spot problem-solving. To be successful, you must have a passion for teaching others; identifying core business constraints; and identifying solutions in partnership with clients for those constraints.

Why this is important for you:
You will have an extraordinary opportunity for growth.
First, you’ll interact with dozens of small, fast-growing businesses, which will ‘level up’ your knowledge and your network. You'll also work in a fast-paced startup environment, playing a crucial role in growing client businesses through identification of their core constraint and how to solve for it. You will have the opportunity to make an immense impact in the lives of entrepreneurs.

The 'pattern recognition' you will build on this job will be unmatched. After 2 years in the role, you will have engaged with hundreds of 7-9 figure CEOs and be positioned for a leadership role at Acquisition.com or one of our portfolio companies. This is also an incredible opportunity to live in Las Vegas and learn from the dynamic CEO and leadership team at Acquisition.com in our new HQ facility.

Responsibilities:

• Develop a rapid growth strategy for attending businesses–identifying constraints, determining solutions, and breaking those solutions down into tactical steps
• Lead roundtable discussions with groups of attending businesses, including ‘spotlighting’ businesses for live problem-solving
• Present solutions, frameworks, and playbooks during our workshops to guests and collaborate with the team in the creation and iteration of those assets and our growing knowledge base
• Maintain professional client relationships, answer questions, and serve as a trusted partner and subject matter expert for workshop participants.
• Partner with the portfolio team to identify opportunities to improve execution and scalability of workshops
• Training and coaching other team members on client engagement and asset creation, especially associate team members

Serve as a backup presenter when needed for workshop events, ranging from short tactical presentations to MCing the event

Results:

• Create and deliver world-class consulting presentations consistently during workshops
• Deliver an exceptional experience to workshop attendees, in support of our standard of excellence in conducting workshops (our target NPS score for attendees is 85%+)
• Inspire workshop attendees to attend more Acquisition.com workshops and also refer friends or others to attend (target renewal rate is 80%+)
• Track impact and results from participating client businesses (target growth rate for attending businesses should be at least $250k per business on average)
• Uphold company values and culture in all interactions with workshop participants.

Requirements:

• Proven track record of elite-level business expertise, spanning strategy, operations, and high-growth execution. Ideal experience includes one or a combination of the following:
• B.A. from a top-tier university in business, economics, finance, or a related field.
• MBA from a top-tier program with at least two years in management consulting (e.g., McKinsey, BCG, Bain) or a similarly rigorous role.
• Entrepreneurial success in founding, scaling, and ideally exiting a company with 7-9 figures in annual revenue.
• Leadership in fast-paced, startup-like environments, driving strategy, team building, and scalable processes.
• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, especially for a business owner audience
• Strong influencing ability–capable of quickly understanding and overcoming objections or blockers from workshop attendees
• High emotional intelligence with a willingness to develop deep interpersonal relationships
• Strong business acumen with the confidence and knowledge to teach others
• Demonstrated experience as a creative problem solver with the ability to structure complex issues quick and with deep proficiency
• Comfortable with ambiguity and adaptable to a fast-changing environment
