Job Description - Senior Strategist (temp to perm)



Job Description


We're looking for a Senior Strategist with personal care experience to join our London team.



WHO YOU ARE


You’re a confident, inquisitive and culturally switched-on thinker. You know how to interrogate a brief, shape a brand story and hold the strategic thread from pitch to delivery.  You combine analytical sharpness with creative empathy;  just as comfortable framing a brand positioning as you are inspiring an idea. You’ve started to earn trust in the room, and are growing in your ability to lead clients, mentor others and see the bigger picture.





RESPONSIBILITIES


Strategic thinking & insight generation You lead the insight phase of projects, interpreting data, identifying tensions and framing strategic opportunities. You push for cultural relevance and bring energy to uncovering what matters most.

Creative briefing & storytelling You translate strategy into creative direction, writing inspiring briefs, shaping territories and building strategic narratives that elevate the work and build belief.

Brand & business strategy You develop and apply strategic frameworks with clarity and flexibility, from positioning and purpose to tone of voice and brand architecture. You know how to tailor your tools to the problem.

Client relationships & influence You’re a leading voice in client conversations, presenting thinking confidently, responding with calm and clarity and shaping decisions in partnership with senior leads.

Team leadership & mentoring You mentor strategists and junior strategists with empathy and stretch. You help guide their process and thinking, offering feedback that supports their growth and confidence.

Commercial acumen You manage your time and input effectively, balancing ambition with scope. You contribute to proposals, project structures and ways to unlock new or deeper client work.





LOCATION AND FLEXIBILITY


This is a contract role with the potential to go permanent. Full-time (40 hours per week) ideally, with 3 days per week in the London office.






EXPERIENCE


5+ years of creative strategy experience within a packaging/brand design agency environment; must have personal care experience and be comfortable working on restricted categories.





SOUNDS LIKE A FIT? LETS TALK.


Please note: No recruiters please. Regretfully, we can't always respond to every applicant, but we do try.



JDO UK


JDO UK is home to two creative hubs: our headquarters in the historic heart of Royal Tunbridge Wells and our central London studio. Each of us is based at one location, but we work as one team; sharing ideas, collaborating across disciplines and supporting each other to deliver our strongest work.
Moving between the two studios gives us fresh perspectives and new energy, while helping ideas cross-pollinate.



We’re part of JDO’s international network of designers, brand strategists and client partnership experts, partnering with some of the world’s most loved and influential brands. Our work spans brand and creative strategy, packaging and product design, innovation and sustainability, and experiential and campaign activation.



Whatever the brief, we create brand worlds that connect, inspire and stay relevant in an ever-changing landscape.



About us


Independent. International. Indispensable.





JDO is an award-winning design agency, expertly helping brands deliver on their promises by creating experiences people can see, feel, and believe.



With boundless creativity and craftsmanship, we craft identities and brand worlds that drive success. Partnering with visionaries and disruptors alike, we turn brand promises into powerful belief.



Our promise to every member of our team is a career that matters. One where your talent is recognised, your growth is supported, and your individuality is celebrated.



Be part of a team that brings energy, generosity and craft into every room – and shows up for each other, every single day. Together, we design for distinction, push boundaries and stay curious, always seeking a better way.



We believe creativity thrives on diversity – of background, identity, experience and thought. We’re committed to building a workplace where everyone feels safe, seen and supported to grow.
