You will facilitate sessions with anyone, from C-Suite executives to creative directors to junior developers, inspiring creativity and focusing insights.

    Craft compelling narratives and develop strong, insight-driven stories to support new business pitches, effectively communicating the agency's value proposition and unique offerings.

    Cultivate and nurture relationships with key clients, actively listening to their needs, identifying unmet opportunities, and introducing tailored solutions to address their challenges.

    Lead the development and implementation of creative and innovative solutions, leveraging strategic thinking and market expertise to maximize client ROI and achieve tangible business results.

    Lead the ongoing refinement and evolution of the agency's strategic point of view (POV), processes, and best practices, ensuring alignment with industry standards and emerging trends.

    Conduct comprehensive research, analyze market trends, and assess competitive dynamics to identify key business and marketing hurdles, informing strategic decision-making and guiding client recommendations.

    Ideal profile

    10+ years' experience in a senior strategy role, preferably in an advertising or marketing agency.

    Proven experience working on tier-1 brands.

    Superior interpersonal and communications skills.

    Be a strategic provocateur by being curious and questioning.
