Rare opportunity for a Strategy Director (or ambitious Senior) to join a small, extremely talented team at a Concept Studio in East London. 

Everything about the business is set-up to challenge convention to elevate creativity: from its creative output to its bottom-up structure. 

This business, owned by a renowned conceptual CD, helps global clients to create good ideas that are well thought through (and turns heads without the need for big PR budgets). Their clients range from luxury fashion, beauty, automotive, to world-famous toys. 

They’re looking for a conceptual/culturally in-tune, client-facing Strategist with a guerrilla approach to collaborate (in a beautiful office) with 8 team members. People who care about art, design, and fashion (but do not need to be a “fashion” person), would be naturally well suited. Those who have a love of brand partnerships, talent collaborations, and activations will thrive. 

The perfect candidate will love challenging senior stakeholders’ ideas, amazing at writing presentations, be a seasoned senior contact for clients, and brilliant at running projects operationally. You will have an on-the-pulse view of the world around them meaning they can bring a unique point of view to the table.

It is a team of no egos, so objective backing for your ideas is a winning ingredient. You’ll also have experience helping to nurture teams and client relationships. 

This role is concept ONLY. Not execution. Though the studio advises brands / partners as conceptual guardians on digital/physical launches. This role is called Concept Director in the business on account of this.

Key ingredients for the role

– Client facing experience is essential, as is more senior operational knowledge as to how to smoothly manage projects through mutli-faceted teams.

– Able to write take the lead on strategic conceptual thinking for ideas, as well as communicating that into pitch / presentations.

– Lover of close knit-teams and the buzz of in-office creative collaboration. Each team member is unique, and roles are not siloed.

– Has a great understanding of brands and who they might collaborate with, and why. Including why brands exist, and how/why an intersection would benefit both.

– Experience working with brand creatives from graphic design to brand comms to bring ideas to life. Also lots of client management experience.
