Senior Creative Strategist

HYDP is looking for a Senior Creative Strategist.

We’re looking for a highly motivated, skilled creative strategist who will deliver best-in-class creative strategy to our clients and drive forward the growth of our accounts.

About HYDP

We're on a mission to build the creator economy through storytelling, talent, and technology.

Creators are the future of human connection. Brands are the language of belonging. We're leading the next generation.

We describe ourselves as a "company", not an "agency". Why? We are deeply focused on expanding the capabilities of a traditional influencer business, taking one business problem at a time and delighting our stakeholders at every opportunity.

What are our company values?

Our employees want to have an impact & legacy.

We want our employees to see our company as the ultimate environment for making an impact and leaving a legacy on the industry. They need to know that they can influence work at any level.

Our employees believe in collective success (championing the mission).

We believe in collective success. We must all share the same objectives. To make yourself successful, you need to make your team, our company, successful. One great player doesn't make a championship‑winning team.

Our employees are radically truthful and transparent.

Think you've got a better idea than someone in a meeting? Think your client needs to hear some feedback? If you can make a case backed by data and evidence, we WANT you to express your honest opinion. We want people who are transparent with their thoughts and feedback in all situations.

As our Senior Creative Strategist, you will be responsible for the following:

You’ll work in a fun, fast‑paced, and fluid environment, working with a team to partner with clients in solving their challenges and hitting their objectives.

You will need experience developing creator‑led strategy and creator‑led campaigns for leading brands.

Working from our London office, you will need a creative mind, the ability to inspire others, and a passion for thinking outside the box.

The role's focus is on delivering brilliant work for our clients and partnering with other divisions to help shape the business.

Creative strategy - You will be responsible for the ideation, strategy, and development of high‑quality creative campaigns.

Management - You will be ready to manage a team of creative strategists in the future while being directly accountable for delivering client work.

Relationship management—This role requires client‑facing skills. You will present strategy and creative ideas to the account management and sales team in pitch situations.

Process management - You will be responsible for implementing the strategic and creative process at the agency. You will need to ensure projects are delivered to our high standards on time and in brief.

Qualifications - WHO ARE YOU?

• A future leader who can educate, nurture and inspire those around them.
• A passion for influencer and social creativity.
• Research skills and the ability to craft powerful insights.
• A master simplifier is someone who can unpick complex problems and briefs and turn them into simple strategies and ideas.
• An opportunity hunter who can sniff out the potential in the most everyday of briefs.
• Self‑motivated and proactive.

Qualifications - NICE TO HAVES...
