Job Description
We are looking for a Creative Strategist who lives and breathes consumer brands, content and culture.
n
n
Someone who instinctively notices a great ad. Someone who knows what brands are doing right, what feels dated, what is starting to trend and, more importantly, why something works with an audience.
n
n
This is not a role for someone who simply wants to make more content.
n
n
We are looking for someone with strong creative taste, sharp consumer understanding and the ability
n
to turn insights into ideas. You should be equally comfortable thinking about a campaign, writing a copy
n
line, breaking down a reel, spotting a cultural trend or explaining why a particular creative will—or won't—
n
resonate with a 20-year-old.
n
n
You will play a key role in shaping how the brand communicates across social media, campaigns, digital
n
platforms and other consumer-facing touchpoints.
n
n
What You’ll Do
n
n
1. Own Creative Strategy
n
n
n
- Develop creative ideas and strategies across campaigns, social media, digital and brand initiatives.
n
- Translate business objectives into consumer-relevant creative communication.
n
- Develop creative territories, concepts and campaign ideas that are distinctive and relevant.
n
- Work closely with designers, video teams, copywriters and marketing teams to bring ideas to life.
n
- Ensure that creative output is not just aesthetically good, but has a clear consumer insight and
n
- strategic thought behind it.
n
n
n
2. Understand the Consumer
n
n
n
- Develop a deep understanding of the 18–30-year-old consumer—their aspirations, behavior,
n
- language, interests, culture and attention patterns.
n
- Understand what makes people stop scrolling, engage, share, save and remember.
n
n
n
3.
Build Creative Taste
n
n
n
- Develop and maintain a strong point of view on what good creative looks like for the brand.
n
- Challenge work that feels generic, derivative, overly promotional or disconnected from the audience.
n
- Build a strong repository of references from consumer brands, advertising, creators, entertainment
n
- and popular culture.
n
- Constantly raise the creative bar across the organisation.
n
n
n
4. Connect Creativity With Business
n
n
n
- Understand the business objective behind every creative brief.
n
- Connect business problems → consumer insights → creative ideas → communication.
n
- Collaborate with marketing, product and business teams to understand what needs to be
n
- communicated and find the most compelling way to communicate it.
n
- Balance creativity with commercial thinking.
n
n
n
What We’re Looking For
n
n
n
- 2+ years of experience in a creative strategy, brand, content, advertising or similar role.
n
- Mandatory experience in a consumer-facing brand or agency.
n
- Strong understanding of copy, content and visual communication.
n
- Excellent writing and communication skills.
n
- A strong understanding of social media and digital content formats.
n
- Deep curiosity about consumer behavior and culture.
n
- Solid understanding of the 18–30 age group and how they consume content.
n
- A sharp eye for what is culturally relevant, interesting and differentiated.
n
- The ability to articulate why an idea works—not just whether you like it.
n
- Solid creative judgement and excellent taste.
n
- Ability to move between strategic thinking and hands-on execution.
n
- Comfortable working in a fast-moving environment where ideas need to be developed, tested and
n
- iterated quickly.
