    The Role

    As a Brand Strategy Consultant, you will be ambitious to further advance your capabilities in a strategic role, applying your thinking in a rigorous and intellectually challenging environment.

    • You'll be working with a variety of successful domestic and international brands in fashion, home, food, spaces and places, and more. Building expertise and experience throughout the entire project process

    YOU

    With a good understanding and appreciation of the role and value of purpose

    Experience of working alone and as part of team to drive strategy

    Strategic thinking – it is the quality of our client's strategic response which perhaps more than anything creates value for their clients, in turn this is founded on the forensic research and investigation. So a Brand Strategy Consultant needs to be both analytical and creative – as well as inquisitive, well-informed and genuinely fascinated by each new client challenge. You'll love the intellectual challenge of finding the right solution, to challenge accepted ways of doing things, and not afraid to defend new ideas if it's right for the client.

    Client management – your role will be client facing, you'll need to be articulate and astute, empathetic and intuitive. Used to working with senior people, you'll need to be adaptable and resilient, persuasive and a true problem solver.

    The successful candidate will join a highly innovative and pioneering consultancy in an influential role. There is ample scope to grow and expand the position and fast track career advancement is encouraged.

    Career Coaching

    You might also be interested in Rare Coaching which focuses on career coaching. There is a lot of flexibility in how this service works and we are able to adapt to a variety of client needs. So for example, some people find they need lots of help at the initial stages of 'what's next?' and so we work with them to generate ideas, explore who they are and what matters most to them. Other people already have an idea of what they want to do and so the focus of the coaching sessions is more about how they achieve that.

    We're happy to arrange an initial, no fee conversation to explore how Career Coaching might help you. Please contact

    "Simon is a rarity amongst search consultants. Firstly, he is extremely precise, choosing to focus on quality and not volume. Secondly, his expertise in strategy roles is second to none. He has deep relationships with many high calibre firms and professionals. These attributes make him the go to person for strategy talent. My personal experience of working with him was superb. He listened, challenged and probed, and was able to recommend the right course of action for the next step in my career. I look forward to working with him again in the future."
