Full Job Description
Job Summary

As a Senior Strategist at Droga5, you are emerging as a leader in the strategy group. You have learned how to consistently nail inspiring, original, sharp strategic ideas for project / campaign briefs with a strong point of view that demand outstanding execution. You understand that thoughtfulness, empathy, and natural curiosity are necessary components in good strategy. You can craft a clear and influential story, backed with evidence, and dripping with vision and creative potential. You push for idea-led integrated solutions that go beyond the obvious and are generally consumed with how to make good work great.

At this point in your career youve demonstrated an ability to find opportunities for strategy to go beyond the brief, have experience with and are eager to learn about the various strategic disciplines (brand, comms, data) to build out systems of work, responsible for work that stretches across an entire paid, owned, earned ecosystem. You have successfully demonstrated experience in social first and culture forward solutions.

You own and lead the day to day on projects. You are comfortable with designing and managing third party research leveraging AI and new tools to identify insights, and are generally owning more and more responsibility. Youve become someone who clients rely on for insight, who creative teams lean on for support and inspiration, and who feels as comfortable alone with a whiteboard as they do on a stage pitching a brave idea.

You are relentlessly curious about the world around you and enjoy keeping up with the shifting media landscape with a keen eye for social spaces.
