Job Details

The Agency

This agency live and breathes brands. The team has a passion for everything it does and all is built on strategic thinking and inspirational creativity.

The team collaborates with global consumer brands that are household names. The list ranges from entertainment and sport to retail and tech and everything in-between.

Around 20 people and growing, with a warm, inclusive approach and a passion for excellence and groundbreaking ideas.

Strategy Director – the role

You’ll love ideas. They drive you on. You’re curious, always questioning and looking to be brave.

You love challenges: churn, Gen Z, new audiences, new territories, new opportunities, new technologies, new ways of building brands.

You're interested. In the world, in people, brands, politics, pop culture, K-pop and everything in between.

You get strategy. You may not have gone to business school, but you get brand, understand the power of critical strategic thinking and you know how to make it happen to create change.

You're brilliant with clients. You take them on a journey. You make them feel brave. You push them, help them and give them the work they deserve. Work that moves the dial.

Strategy Director – day to day

You’ll work closely with the founders, strategists, and creatives to build ideas that make a meaningful difference for their clients. 

You'll be excited to mentor and help others around you grow.

You'll create brand strategy that everyone can feel. Strategy that is inseparable from and connected to all creative thinking.

You'll be part of the team and your ideas will permeate everything. Your thinking will be visible in everything the team does.

Beyond ideas, you want to be part of a team of brilliant people doing the best work of their lives.

Strategy Director – what you need

8+ years of industry experience working as a brand strategist

Ideas that have the power to change the world - and the knowledge and know-how to implement and embed them within complex organisations.

A desire to be part of a team, to want to build something and leave a legacy.
