Middleweight Consultant

This is a lovely role at a creative communications agency where you’ll get to run your own smaller projects and assist your more experienced colleagues  on larger projects.

We anticipate you’ll have a minimum of 5 years+ in a similar role, working across branding and communications focused projects, for a host of leading names in the B2B and corporate communications sectors. You’ll be flexible in your approach and always looking to develop and grow.

Our client has a very distinctive, collaborative culture. They have a mix of large, long-term client relationships and newer, smaller ones. This means they can better manage their workload and income. What unifies this diverse mix of clients is the quality and care they give them – for them there is no such thing as ‘the bloody client’.

Their approach to strategy means that anyone in the business can contribute, as long as their ideas are good. Their approach focuses on taking the complex and making it straightforward, not the reverse. Strategy runs through everything our client does and as a result, consultants are part of their team throughout projects.

As a strategist, you will help to develop communications strategy which encompasses brand, brand communications, naming and internal engagement. We anticipate that your strategy experience will have been predominantly gained agency side. Though your strategy skills are likely to be brand led, you’ll also be capable of applying them to the broader brand communications and internal engagement area. Your sector experience is likely to include at least one of B2B, financial services, higher education, Government / public sector and channel neutral.

Our client is highly regarded for both the quality of their work output and as a place to work. This role is ideally suited for someone looking to build on their experience and to stretch themselves by taking on greater responsibility.
