Strategy roles in a large pension fund

Hi all,

Curious to hear your takes on strategy roles (it sits between the investment teams and the executives) in a large pension fund. How deep your knowledge of the markets needs to be to have success on the job and during interviews and what the day to day looks like. The role would include an overall view of the financial markets, corporate financings and real estate.

I have an interview coming up so any tips on stuff to read ahead of it would be appreciated or what to expect
