Role Overview:

This is the perfect opportunity for an innovative strategist who thrives on blending qualitative insights with creative design thinking. In this dynamic role, no two projects will be alike. One month, you might:

• Pilot immersive VR training for an FMCG giant
• Craft digital services that empower youth mental health
• Prototype sustainable packaging for a pet food brand
• Lead transformative training workshops in the USA while envisioning the future of care in Australia

You’ll play an influential role in translating data, trends, and emotions into insights, simplifying the complex. Hands-on with all elements of the innovation cycle, from initial proposal through to final delivery, you’ll be involved in:

• Leading briefings
• Deepening client relationships
• Supporting business development and proposal writing
• Project management (budgets, scope, timelines, costs)
• Designing innovation processes
• Collaborating with colleagues and clients
• Leading qualitative in-depth interviews, workshops, groups, and co-creation sessions
• Uncovering thought-provoking recommendations and new ways of thinking
• Designing prototypes
• Presenting insights to clients through storytelling, reports, engaging presentations, workshops, training sessions, and brainstorming sessions

We’re looking to speak with strategists who have 5+ years of commercial agency experience in qualitative research, innovation, branding, or strategy, love the pace and variety of agency life, and have a proven track record in leading client accounts.
  
The Essentials:

• A versatile mixed-method toolkit – in-depth interviews, workshops, focus groups, co-creation sessions, ethnography, BSCI, evidence-based interventions, experimental pilots, and rapid prototypes.
• Prior agency experience within a fast-paced environment
• Confidence across all stages of the innovation cycle
• Happy to be on the tools and in the boardroom
• Comfortable uncovering problems with ambiguity
• Not afraid to push back and question the what and why
• Experience leading client accounts and supporting business development
• A passion for knowledge-sharing and mentoring juniors
• Drive, curiosity, and a sense of humour
• An eclectic taste in music (they take their office playlist very seriously)

If you don’t meet every requirement but have a solid foundation in innovation strategy and qualitative research, we encourage you to apply.
