Why Join frog?

Since June 2021, frog is part of Capgemini Invent. frog partners with customer‑centric enterprises to drive sustainable growth, by building and orchestrating experiences at scale, while harnessing the power of data and technology. We’re inventing the future of customer experiences by delivering market‑defining business models, products, services, brand engagements and communications.

Digital Strategy

Digital Strategy sits at the heart of Business Reinvention at frog.

We are seeking to grow our practice by a Digital Strategist into our team – at Manager level. We are especially interested in applicants who have some experience within (but not necessarily limited to) the Energy & Utilities sector and other regulated industries.

An Overview Of The Role

As a Digital Strategist at frog you’ll be passionate about the amazing opportunities that are opening up for businesses in the AI era – and excited to roll up your sleeves and help our clients realise this untapped potential. You’ll operate at the intersection of strategy, product, data and technology — translating complex insight into clear, actionable direction. You’ll help senior clients (up to C-level) identify, prioritise and realise value from digital and AI investments. You’ll shape end‑to‑end propositions, from insight to business case to implementation roadmap. You’ll be a polymath – as comfortable drafting a commercial model and business case as you are empathising with the needs of our clients and their customers. You’ll thrive on your ability to weave a transformative story out of a mountain of insight, data and competing perspectives. And you’ll collaborate seamlessly across frog’s multi‑disciplinary team of world‑class designers, technologists, marketers and more.

As a Manager in our team:

• You will immediately assume the ‘Project Lead’ role on client engagements – acting as the day‑to‑day point of client contact on projects, leading small frog project teams and collaborating to ensure work is delivered to the required standards
• You will drive account growth and play a substantive role in BD efforts, including proposal writing and participating in client pitches alongside leaders at frog/Capgemini
• You will play an ‘SME’ role within our team on aspects of Strategy craft – upskilling others and interfacing with the wider frog community in this capacity
• You will assume people line management responsibilities within the Strategy team where needed
• You will have previous experience in relevant roles

What We Look For

For these roles we’re looking for experienced strategy practitioners. You will likely have several years of experience in strategy consulting, investment banking, corporate strategy and innovation, or a related field. We recognize the best strategists come from a variety of backgrounds, so most importantly, you have a proven ability to think commercially, strategically, and creatively — don’t let job titles and degrees hold us back from meting you!

We don't expect you to hit all of the elements below perfectly, but we do want to be sure that you will bring valuable skills, experience and creative energy into our team:

Strategic thinking & action

You have strong problem solving and analytical skills, with the ability to move beyond theory to identify practical recommendations that can be implemented by our clients

Commercial modelling

You are highly numerate and have experience owning detailed assumptive models that quantify the size of the prize and path to value for our clients

Strategic storytelling

You are comfortable building and presenting compelling narratives and business cases, using words and numbers with precision to communicate the business value of our work and recommendations

Deep research

You are competent across a range of research methods and lenses, such as qual & quant customer research, market & competitor analysis, stakeholder interviews, SWOT & PESTLE analysis etc.

Product & business model innovation

You are able to translate research & analysis into forward‑facing customer propositions and product strategies that bridge from where our clients are today to where they can be in future

AI and emerging technologies

You have practical understanding of how AI and emerging technologies translate into real business value, with experience applying these in strategy, product or transformation contexts

Stakeholder engagement & communication

You are confident engaging with stakeholders at all levels, over email, on calls and in meetings or workshops

Pragmatic problem‑solver

Focuses on finding practical solutions and reducing complexity to drive results.

Collaborative team player

Builds strong relationships and works effectively across diverse stakeholders and across craft disciplines in frog/Capgemini.

Excellent interpersonal skills

Builds trust and fosters strong connections with colleagues, clients, and stakeholders.

Adaptable and agile

Thrives in dynamic environments and adjusts to shifting priorities with ease.

Growth mindset and curiosity

You’re always learning, experimenting with new technologies, and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible.

It would be a bonus if you have

• Energy & Utilities sector experience
• Experience applying strategy in regulated industries
• Both highly desirable – but should not dissuade you from applying if you don’t have them!

Need To Know

We don’t just believe in inclusion, we actively go out to making it a working reality. Driven by our core values and Inclusive Futures for All campaign, we build environments where you can bring you whole self to work.
We aim to build an environment where employees can enjoy a positive work‑life balance. We embed hybrid working in all that we do and make flexible working arrangements the day‑to‑day reality for our people. All UK employees are eligible to request flexible working arrangements.
Employee wellbeing is vitally important to us as an organisation. We see a healthy and happy workforce a critical component for us to achieve our organisational ambitions. To help support wellbeing we have trained ‘Mental Health Champions’ across each of our business areas. We have also invested in wellbeing apps such as Thrive and Peppy

CSR

We’re also focused on using tech to have a positive social impact. So, we’re working to reduce our own carbon footprint and improve everyone’s access to a digital world. It’s something we’re really serious about. In fact, we were even named as one of the world’s most ethical companies by the Ethisphere Institute for the 10th year. When you join Capgemini, you’ll join a team that does the right thing.
