Overview

We’re working with a leading creative and experiential agency who are looking for a Strategy Director to support and help grow one of their largest global accounts.

This is a senior, client-facing strategy role sitting across a busy and evolving global brand partnership. The agency is looking for someone who can take a bird’s-eye view across the account, helping connect the dots across the business, guide the client into stronger briefs, and identify where the partnership can continue to grow.

The role is less about writing brand narratives from scratch and more about acting as a true planner across the whole account. You’ll help understand how the brand is evolving, where it should be showing up, and how that can translate into stronger experiential, content, campaign and brand opportunities.

You’ll partner closely with senior client leadership, helping shape strategy around growth, new opportunities and the future direction of the relationship. There will also be the opportunity to support wider new business and contribute to the strategic direction of the agency as the strategy team continues to grow.

What You’ll Do

• Sit strategically across a major global account, helping shape the future direction of the client relationship.
• Partner closely with senior client and agency leads to identify growth opportunities.
• Help guide the client into stronger, clearer and more strategically useful briefs.
• Translate brand and business objectives into compelling experiential, content and campaign opportunities.
• Take a broader account-planning view, rather than focusing only on individual projects.
• Support client presentations, pitches, workshops and senior stakeholder conversations.
• Contribute to wider new business and the continued growth of the agency’s strategy function.

What You’ll Bring

• Senior strategy experience across experiential, brand entertainment, integrated, brand strategy or creative agency environments.
• The ability to think strategically across a full client account, not just project-by-project.
• Strong client-facing confidence, with the ability to pitch, present and guide senior stakeholders.
• Experience helping grow client relationships and identifying new opportunities.
• A strong understanding of how to translate brand, audience and business objectives into creative opportunities.
• A positive, confident, motivated and collaborative approach.
• Tech experience would be a plus, but is not essential.

We are passionate about promoting diversity, inclusion, and equality, and are committed to working with clients who share our outlook. We offer equal opportunities to all candidates regardless of background, identity, sexuality, and disability. We strive to create inclusive cultures where diversity is seen as real value for the company. Our mission is for everyone to feel empowered to be their true authentic selves at work.
