Research & Insight Gathering

  • Conduct or support primary research efforts (interviews, surveys, workshops) and desk research (competitive scans, cultural audits).
  • Synthesize research findings into clear insights and opportunities.
  • Monitor cultural and market trends relevant to client industries.

Client & Team Collaboration

  • Participate in client-facing meetings and presentations as needed.
  • Participate in internal brainstorms, working sessions, and strategy reviews.
  • Collaborate with project managers and creative leads to deliver work on time and on brief.

Writing & Presentation

  • Write audience insights, strategy narratives, and presentation decks in clear and compelling language.
  • Contribute to creative briefs, moodboards, and strategic storytelling that inspire teams and clients alike.
Your Qualifications
  • At least 3 years of experience in creative strategy, preferably in an agency or related consultancy setting.
  • A sharp strategic mind and creative sensibility, with a portfolio of projects demonstrating your contributions.
  • Comfortable working independently and collaboratively in a remote environment.
  • Strong writing and presentation skills—able to clearly articulate ideas to both internal teams and clients.
  • Experience with nonprofits, public sector, healthcare, or tourism clients is a plus.
