The Role

Creative Solutions now owns execution from end to end, so strategy has to cover the whole span: pre-sale (discovery, ideation, proposals) and post-sale (kickoff strategy, campaign briefs, post-campaign insights). As a Strategist on this team, you’ll shape the idea that wins the pitch and stay with it until it ships, performs, and turns into a renewal. Our goal is simple: the idea that wins the pitch is the idea that ships.

Key Responsibilities

Own the core insight and creative idea, plus the integrated plan behind it: creators, media and distribution, and measurement

Build proposals and RFP responses with a clear, data-backed case for #paid

Set the creator mix: when to scale with micro and niche creators, when to concentrate on macro names, and how to combine both

Build the investment plan, splitting budget across organic content, usage rights and paid amplification, and set channel mix and flighting

Define KPIs and benchmarks up front, optimize in flight, and turn results into renewal stories

Stay involved post-sale with creator briefs, content direction, and strategic QA

Stay ahead of market and platform changes, and translate them into sharper proposal work

Contribute to proactive packages and first-to-market moments

This person covers the whole creator-campaign lifecycle, from pre-sale ideation through post-campaign insights, with a stronger emphasis on creator mix, budget planning, and measurement
