Senior Strategist

The Role

The Senior Strategist is responsible for owning mid-sized client engagements, executing high-quality strategy work, and partnering with senior team members on our largest accounts. In this role, you take complex inputs and turn them into clear strategic components, narratives, and recommendations. You operate independently within defined scopes, manage workstream-level client relationships, and deliver strategy that holds up under scrutiny. Much of our work centers on social media as a strategic business function, not just a distribution channel.

This is not a junior role. You are expected to apply judgment, manage ambiguity, and take real ownership of the work in fast-moving, high-impact environments.

• Execute strategy work - Translate client needs, business goals, and relevant insights into strategic frameworks, recommendations, and narratives.
• Develop strategic plans that are clear, defensible, and grounded in real business challenges.
• Own defined work streams and/or deliverables within larger engagements.
• Build and communicate strategic narratives - Shape how strategy is structured and explained within your scope.
• Craft materials that support client understanding and decision-making.
• Ensure clarity, logic, and cohesion in strategy outputs.
• Own workstream-level client relationships - Serve as a day-to-day strategy contact for defined work streams.
• Manage client communication, expectations, and follow-through.
• Participate confidently in client meetings and discussions.
• Own client relationships by building trust and delivering excellent work.
• Assist in identifying opportunities for growth with existing clients through the course of existing work streams.
• Work across disciplines - Collaborate closely with Analysts, Paid Media Managers, and Creatives, building trust internally to ensure optimal outcomes.
• Incorporate feedback, performance signals, and new information as work evolves.
• Stay connected to how strategy shows up in practice.
• Ensure translation of client feedback and nuances to less client facing teammates.
• Support team execution - Provide guidance and informal mentorship to junior strategists.
• Review work for quality, clarity, and alignment with strategic direction.
• Help maintain high standards across strategy deliverables.

• Strategy work is clear, thoughtful, and reliable.
• You build lasting, trusting relationships with clients at your level.
• Deliverables require minimal revision.
• Clients trust you as a capable and prepared point of contact.
• Teams can rely on you to move work forward.
• You are ready to take on larger, more complex scopes over time.

• Have experience working with large, well resourced brands and organizations
• Enjoy solving complex problems with no obvious starting point.
• Can translate ambiguity into clarity.
• Care more about judgment than volume.
• Are comfortable owning work and client conversations.
• Want to grow toward broader strategic ownership.
