Event Content Strategy and Lead

Aquent is seeking a high-caliber Executive Content Strategy & Lead to join the leadership team of our innovative healthcare client. This role is designed for a master storyteller who can move seamlessly between high-level strategic narratives and technical clinical data. You will act as a dedicated partner to C-suite executives and clinical subject matter experts, developing 40-60 world-class presentations annually for global conferences, keynotes, and thought leadership events. This is not a sales enablement role; it is a strategic position focused on shaping the organization's voice within the healthcare industry. Key Responsibilities Executive Speechwriting: Partner directly with senior leadership to develop impactful event presentations, including keynotes, panel moderations, and executive roundtables. Content Development: Drive the end-to-end creation of scripts and slides, ensuring they are at the \"right altitude\" for mixed external audiences while bringing underlying clinical narratives to life. Strategic Alignment: Coordinate with Marketing, Sales, Product, and Clinical teams to align on key messages and themes for external speaking engagements. Research & Synthesis: Gather internal and external data, stories, and medical literature to support the development of compelling, evidence-based narratives. Speaker Coaching: Coach presenters on delivery and stagecraft to ensure messages are engaging and aligned with event goals. Portfolio Management: Lead the high-volume development of pre-event materials, speaking proposals, and final decks within a fast-paced, frequently evolving environment. Required Qualifications Industry Experience: 8+ years in Brand, Corporate Marketing, or Communications, with at least 5 years specifically in the healthcare industry. Executive Presence: Proven track record of working with business, technical, and clinical senior executives to develop high-stakes presentations. Clinical Literacy: Ability to search and understand medical literature to provide strong evidence for presentation messaging. Storytelling Mastery: A creative communicator who can ingest large amounts of siloed, technical information and translate it into a digestible, \"non-sales\" narrative. Technical Tools: High level of proficiency in Google Slides/Docs and Microsoft PowerPoint/Word. Project Management: Highly accountable skills with the ability to manage 40+ complex projects annually with simultaneous deadlines. Preferred Attributes Experience growing annual customer events from hundreds to thousands of attendees. Demonstrable success in securing speaking invitations for major thought leadership events (e.g., TED, industry-leading summits). Specific understanding of musculoskeletal care, pain management, or digital health dynamics. The target hiring compensation range for this role is $80 to $95 an hour. Compensation is based on several factors including, but not limited to education, relevant work experience, relevant certifications, and location.
