Are you ready to shape the strategic future of a global creative business?

This is a high-profile role at the heart of a lean, dynamic strategy function—working directly with a board-level leader to drive ambitious growth, deliver transformative projects, and embed innovation across markets.

In this role, you’ll blend big-picture thinking with hands-on delivery. You’ll navigate complex challenges, connect diverse stakeholders, and turn bold ideas into tangible results—whether that’s delivering a market growth strategy, integrating a recent acquisition, spearheading AI initiatives, or diversifying content for new audiences.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Lead and deliver high-impact strategic projects with global reach—spanning revenue growth, operational efficiency, and corporate development.
• Shape and implement strategies for key markets, including territory-led expansion.
• Steer integration of recent acquisitions to maximise cultural and commercial impact.
• Embed AI and emerging technology into business processes to drive creativity, efficiency, and competitive advantage.
• Partner directly with C-suite leaders, acting as a trusted advisor and sounding board.
• Analyse complex data sets and market trends, translating insights into actionable recommendations.
• Build and nurture relationships across functions—including creative, commercial, technology, and operations—ensuring alignment and momentum.
• Operate with autonomy in a fast-moving environment, managing multiple priorities simultaneously.

What We’re Looking For

• Strategic thinker with proven success delivering cross-functional projects from ideation to execution.
• Experience in management consulting, corporate strategy, or similar strategic project driven roles, ideally with exposure to creative or content-driven sectors.
• Strong analytical skills—comfortable with market analysis, financial modelling, and synthesising data into compelling business cases.
• Demonstrated ability to work autonomously, make decisions with confidence, and see initiatives through to delivery.
• Excellent communication, influencing, and stakeholder management skills—able to engage at every level from creative teams to the board.
• Adaptable, resourceful, and commercially savvy—able to thrive in ambiguity and navigate change.
• Interest in and understanding of emerging technologies, particularly AI, and how they can be harnessed for business advantage.

Why This Role?

• Global Impact – Shape strategy across multiple markets, influencing the direction of a truly international creative business.
• Board-Level Exposure – Direct reporting line to a C-suite leader with a seat at the board.
• Breadth of Projects – From market growth to innovation, you’ll work across an unparalleled mix of strategic priorities.
• Career Progression – Clear pathways to senior leadership for top performers.
• Creative & Collaborative Culture – Join a team that values curiosity, initiative, and bringing bold ideas to life.
