Summary Generated by Built In

The Role is a unique opportunity to further your career as a marketing strategist on some of the world’s best brands. Working into an experienced Strategy Partner or Managing Partner of Strategy, your responsibility will be to create brilliant strategic thinking that powers the day-to-day campaign planning of some of our biggest clients, and take a leading role shaping the overall media strategy of some of our smaller clients. You will inspire cross agency teams to build creative and effective solutions for client, which help them build competitive advantage.

You will play a leading role in identifying the insight and shaping the ideas at the heart of those campaigns, collaborating with external agency partners to create integrated and effective recommendations for our clients. In addition, you will play a critical role in new business and agency culture, leading the strategy on some smaller pitches, contributing to agency training initiatives, and helping produce thought-leadership.

The Clients would be a mix of Tier 1 (contributing), Tier 2 and Tier 3, including Compare The Market who are responsible for some of the most famous advertising in the country! An exciting and dynamic category where marketing is crucial for competitive advantage, this is a great opportunity to drive forward a leading UK brand (and get to work with our beloved meerkats).
