Founded by strategists, which means that strategy was and always will be at the core of everything they do, Strategy and Creative at is an extremely close partnership across every aspect of everything they make.

YOU are smart, clever, passionate, nice, friendly, open, unassuming, and modest yet confident. You are someone creatives want to hang out with, account people can rely on, and clients will engage with and take advice from. You are a close-knit partner with your teammates and clients alike in the creation of breathtakingly original and incisive solutions to a massive array of huge brand challenges. You are able to identify big ideas, develop them with creatives, and nurture them through collaboration with potential agency partners and clients. You are not only the specialist at gathering vital information, but you share that information with varied audiences within the agency.
You are proactive and have a hands-on mentality, handling your own projects and taking responsibility from beginning to end. One of your greatest strengths is your pen game; you are a skilled writer with a knack for selling a good story, whether written or verbal.
The Strategist is responsible for helping drive client strategy for current and new clients, and is focused on helping brands resonate in culture. A deep thinker and seasoned research veteran, (s)he ultimately assures the outstanding quality of the strategic and creative products the team produces.

You know how to identify and understand the wants, needs, and motivations of key audiences for your brand(s), and you can effectively tell stories that enroll teammates into that understanding. Your approach to research and insight mining is not just gathering information, it’s also being able to draw something surprising from it. You enjoy the distillation process – relying on a mix of resourcefulness, intuition, and natural curiosity to decode cultural experiences. You can be both big-picture oriented and detail-oriented in the same day, and have the ability and desire to make daily tactics as interesting and strategic as the next big idea. You’ll be expected to demonstrate, evangelize, and live the core values of the agency daily.
