Internal Blogger on Strategy and Business Practices

The professional who is selected to write an Internal Blog on Business Strategies for Google would by necessity be expected to consume a huge volume of printed, published, and otherwise documented information related to the company which would include information saved on internal shared company drives, as well as information that is published externally about the company from analysts reports, media coverage and competitive reviews published about the company and other partner and competitive companies.  In addition to the ability to consume a tremendous volume of printed information, this professional would also be expected to attend, audit or participate in internal and shareholder-focused meetings on a near-continuous basis.

This individual would need to possess the ability to understand the progressive nature of the core capabilities of the company, and position themselves to find and decipher fragments of information that show the future intentions and un-disclosed plans/strategies of competitors, partners and other industry organizations. This individual would be required to assimilate this information into a series of confidential blog posts which would be structured to provide company executives with a snapshot of the information (which although well documented) would by necessity take the form of executive level summary reports. This individual should be able to withstand high-level strategically focused demanding Q&A sessions with company executives who are setting and adjusting the core strategic business plans for The Company.   

I would really, really like to apply for this position, but it is not included in the list of jobs that are currently advertised at jobs.google.com, so I have applied for the following job instead:

Director of Employment Marketing, Branding - Mountain View

 This series is a skills showcase of Clint Garwood, a senior-level marketing consultant actively campaigning to get a Google job. I am happy to interview for and discuss this and other positions with Google (or with other companies) where my skills and extensive experience can find a good home. I am willing to relocate and/or travel extensively as a condition of any suitable work offer made to me. Thank you for considering me for Your Team. I am looking forward to hearing from you very soon.
