    SVP, Strategy - New York, NY, United States - Critical Mass

    Default job background
    Description

    If you see "no one's done that before" as an exciting challenge, rather than an intimidating barrier, we have an enormously exciting opportunity on one of the world's most iconic brands.

    As SVP, Strategy, you are the strategic lead for planning, coordinating, and bringing our client's brand ecosystem strategy to life. The overall quality of the strategy work is on your shoulders, but you're up to the challenge. You bring leadership and expertise for complex projects that cross a variety of skillsets. You're a natural leader who understands how to guide a strategy team through project lifecycles and across multiple interagency partners, but you also know how to persuade senior clients to take the risks they've asked for (but are a little afraid of). You are very comfortable with data, emerging technology, and thinking across brand ecosystems, which means you can effectively articulate insights and strategies to multi-disciplinary teams comprising of creatives, technologists, and more. You live and breathe your clients' businesses, know their competitors, customers, and key industry trends as well as (if not better than) they do. You are not afraid of a blank page or starting without a well-defined plan.

    We expect you to have expertise in two or three of the following areas, while being willing to dive into all of them: brand strategy, media strategy, performance strategy, CX, social campaigns, integrated campaigns, and digital technology.

    You Will:

    • Ensure overall quality of Strategy work across projects on this account.
    • Work in an interagency environment and deliver across all facets of Strategy (i.e. digital, social, media, etc.)
    • Partner with our client's CMO to deliver innovative strategic approaches to complex business problems.
    • Identify opportunities with our client's brand that they don't even realize they need.
    • Own the audience understanding and journey mapping, both today and as it evolves through data-informed feedback.
    • Apply that audience-first thinking to evergreen projects, innovation sprints, and global rollouts across markets.
    • Reinforce to clients the value of a strategic approach to their brand ecosystem.
    • Stay plugged into shifts in culture and our consumer, to provide thought leadership to our clients and proactively identify new opportunities for the brand to pursue.
    • Become an expert on client business sectors to identify business problems and propose solutions.
    • Manage a rotating cast of mid-level and junior level strategic contributors to specific subprojects.
    • Collaborate with other senior-level employees to identify the right casting for each project and adequate timelines for delivery.
    • Provide excellent team management and oversight on all strategic and CX work.
    • Synthesize and communicate the results of research to clients and project teams to provide insight and perspective on the client's strategic direction.
    • Distribute creative briefs to teams directed by strategic findings.
    • Connect measurement strategies to support ongoing and overall strategy development.
    • Focus on leading a single account, but occasionally supporting special projects, new business pitches, and initiatives within the Strategy department.

    You Have:

    • 15+ years agency-side experience (digital & traditional).
    • 5+ years' experience working within interagency environments.
    • 3+ years' automotive experience.
    • Excellent leadership and facilitation experience within larger teams.
    • Strong presentation and storytelling skills, particularly for distilling complex ideas into simple, intuitive takeaways.
    • Experience designing personas and customer journeys with a keen understanding of content strategy, marketing, and distribution.
    • Creativity when it comes to research approaches.
    • Experience growing accounts organically.
    • An understanding and ability to design social ecosystems.
    • A passion for digital and staying up to date on technology and trends.
    • Experience developing proposals and presentations for clients.
    • The ability to quickly learn about new disciplines and emerging technologies.
    • A commitment to teamwork, collaboration, and learning.
    • An astute attention to detail and a results-oriented state-of-mind.
    • The ability to be flexible and multi-task.
