Senior Strategist

Description

THE ROLE

The Senior Strategist will work closely with the Strategy Partner and quickly establish themselves as an indispensable strategic ally for the clients. Offering help and expertise in developing creative work, brand architecture and innovation and competitive understanding, whilst already having experience developing and executing successful digital and social campaigns. This account is fully integrated, and we work hand in hand with several specialist agencies and partners, the Senior Strategist will be holding and driving those relationships on a day-to-day basis. Interest and experience in social/digital comms would be appreciated to help bring big brands ideas to life across multiple channels.

THE ACCOUNT

Sensodyne is a £2b global sensitivity toothpaste and proudly stands as no. 1 global brand for sensitive teeth. This is a fast paced fully integrated business where creative ambition and push for excellency are key drivers – therefore energy, passion and resilience are at the top of the agenda. It is an exciting category to work on given its data & digital first agenda and focus on innovation. On top of that the successful strategist will also have the opportunity to work on pitches and occasional pro-bono projects for the likes of PETA.

WHO YOU ARE

Energised by a love for the work. The opportunity to do great work should be number one. That’s why we, planners, are here, and if it’s not evident when we speak to candidates, we aren’t interested.

Naturally creative minds. We are looking for strategists that have seen/made great award-winning creative work. Be that in the accounts or agencies they’ve worked.

Entrepreneurial. We are not an overly structured agency, just an ambition to get to the best work. We need someone who can find method in the madness, roll with the punches, and drive and direct the team to the best outcome.

Awards hungry. We are and want to continue to be an award-winning agency at local and global level. Preferred candidates would have either won an APG or similar, or have a story around how the strategy for the brands they have worked on have won creative awards.

Nice light soul. We are a small tight gang. All friends. All supportive of each other. Hence, we are looking for someone likeminded, open, and collaborative.

Diversity. It’s critical. We believe in the collision of difference. People with diverse backgrounds and beliefs.

Inclusion & Belonging
At Grey, we know that the more diverse the input, the more famous & effective our creativity, ideas and output will be. This belief touches every part of how we work, and so how we welcome new talent to the agency is a huge part of that. We are committed to creating an inclusive workplace and we welcome applications from those who are under-represented in our industry. Every person is valued for their distinctive skills, experiences and perspectives. It is incredibly important to us that we celebrate everything that makes us different and that we create an environment in which everyone can belong, and no one has to cover a part of their identity.
