Senior Associate – Brand Strategy – Public Sector focus

If you are looking to attain deep insight into the workings of some of the world’s most interesting businesses, then this brief could be for you. Our client is a brand strategy business with an outstanding reputation for its work. Working at Marketing Director level and directing projects of immense strategic importance, you will play a crucial role in developing our client’s thriving business.

This is a leadership role, you will be leading small teams consulting on fast paced, high impact projects. You will thrive when working at Board level, facilitating senior management workshops, directing the thinking, whilst nurturing your own team and critiquing their work.

This is certainly a challenging and immensely rewarding role. The content of the work is heavily strategic, almost dry, yet there is a strong creative vein running through the company. You’ll be helping high profile organisations to redefine their brand, facilitating workshops and translating all of these outcomes into operational principles of how a company communicates with various parts of its business. In essence it is about developing a deep understanding of a client’s business.

Past experience has demonstrated that brand and communications planners / consultants, internal communications specialists are well suited to this business – with one distinct difference – you will be someone who now wants to interface with clients and really get to understand their business. So apart from developing strategy you will want to have very interesting conversations with clients – and not just any old client, we are talking about Board levels clients within major organisations.

By nature you will be extremely inquisitive, bright, engaging, energetic and hungry. A great thinker, you will be excited by the thought of really getting to understand how businesses work. The company is a little bit nerdy really, I’ve touched on this, the work is highly strategic yet all the staff have very creative leanings. There is a great deal of design collaboration.
