What we are looking for:

As a pivotal member of our Creative Strategy team, your work serves as the strategic

foundation for sonic branding projects. You're the visionary ensuring that each creative

concept resonates perfectly, aligning with a brand's unique positioning, market pulse, and

ambitious business goals. As our Creative Strategist (m/w/d) you define the sonic direction

and craft the inspired guidelines that empower our entire creative ensemble. Ready to unleash

your creativity and strategic thinking in sonic branding? This is your stage.

What you’ll do:

• Develop and refine sonic branding strategies based on market research, competitive

analysis, and brand analysis.

• Develop and articulate strategic frameworks for sonic identities, ensuring alignment

with business and brand objectives.

Creative Team), usage, and consistency across touchpoints.

touchpoints.

• Validate sonic branding concepts in collaboration with client management, Creative

• Present strategic recommendations and rationales to clients in a compelling and

persuasive manner.

What you’ll need:

• Strategic Architect & Insight Navigator: You're a strategic powerhouse, adept at

translating deep consumer insights related to sonic branding and finely-tuned brand

positioning into compelling creative directions. Your mind is a well-oiled analytical

machine, dissecting challenges with structured thought to craft the perfect sonic

journey. You have experience with consumer research methodoligies, data

interpretation, and brand positioning.

• Storyteller & Persuasion Pro: You don't just communicate; you captivate. Crafting

structured, clear, and genuinely persuasive sonic branding strategy presentations is

second nature, and your presentation skills command the room, turning complex ideas

into client-facing triumphs. Fluent in the visual language of PowerPoint, Keynote, and

beyond, you transform concepts into engaging experiences.

• Agile Executor & Problem Solver: A true self-starter who thrives under pressure, you

seamlessly juggle multiple projects with independent precision. You bring a can-do

attitude and a proactive, problem-solving mindset, always finding elegant solutions

and making things happen.

• Curiosity & Sonic Passion: Your insatiable curiosity drives you to experiment with

emerging trends and technologies in our industry. And because we live and breathe

sound, you're a bonafide music nerd, living for the intersection of sound, strategy, and

storytelling.

• Foundation & Experience: You're bringing experience in brand

strategy, creative strategy, or related fields to the table, and are ready to hit the ground

running. Bonus points if you already have some hands-on job experience specifically in

the music industry, particularly in sonic branding, music branding, or other audiofocused

projects.

Perhaps not all aspects align perfectly? That's completely fine! amp is committed to supporting

your professional and personal growth, and we'll work together to discover your unique
