The Role
Creative Solutions now owns execution from end to end, so strategy has to cover the whole span: pre-sale (discovery, ideation, proposals) and post-sale (kickoff strategy, campaign briefs, post-campaign insights). As a Strategist on this team, you’ll shape the idea that wins the pitch and stay with it until it ships, performs, and turns into a renewal. Our goal is simple: the idea that wins the pitch is the idea that ships.
Key Responsibilities
Own the core insight and creative idea, plus the integrated plan behind it: creators, media and distribution, and measurement
Build proposals and RFP responses with a clear, data-backed case for #paid
Set the creator mix: when to scale with micro and niche creators, when to concentrate on macro names, and how to combine both
Build the investment plan, splitting budget across organic content, usage rights and paid amplification, and set channel mix and flighting
Define KPIs and benchmarks up front, optimize in flight, and turn results into renewal stories
Stay involved post-sale with creator briefs, content direction, and strategic QA
Stay ahead of market and platform changes, and translate them into sharper proposal work
Contribute to proactive packages and first-to-market moments
