Job description

The ideal candidate will bring a unique blend of both left brain (analytical) and right-brain (creative) skills to bear on our client’s problems: someone who is as comfortable working in Excel as they are binge watching the latest popular series and making a convincing case for why their favorite season is indeed the best . Our approach to solving problems requires that level of fluidity, comprehensiveness, confidence, and executive presence.

Qualifications

• over 10 years of professional experience: preferably in branding/marketing, management consulting, brand management, or market research
• Demonstrated leadership skills, both vertically and laterally, and ability to bring clarity to team in ambiguous situations
• Strong project management skills and ability to juggle multiple projects
• Ability to work cross-functionally, with a solid understanding of market research
• Ease and confidence with “thinking on your feet” – can effortlessly lead a workshop with a group of senior executives
• Proven ability to develop new offers and capabilities to grow the Strategy3 business
• Strong business acumen/critical thinking, with demonstrated competency in specific focus areas
• Strong track record of leading proposals and business development
• Impeccable interpersonal and communication skills, written and verbal
• Enormous personal impact, executive presence, and ability to instill trust in top leadership
• Ability to lead, mentor, and advocate for junior team members while serving as a “culture add”- we’re not looking for people who “fit our mold”; rather, we want to bring on team members who will mold our culture by pushing us to think in new ways

In addition to those qualifications, one of the key things we have in common is the ability to tie together disparate pieces of information (from social media, from census data, from keen observation) into a compelling story, and tell it in a way that is engaging and memorable.
