Our alumni have gone on to run their own top 150 agencies and to lead the communications and marketing for well-known global brands.

We look for problem solvers, for creative minds and for individuals who want to change society, influence culture, challenge conformity and push boundaries.

Whatever your race, religion, origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, or disability – we want to hear from you.

We are looking for an experienced Strategy Director (maternity cover) to lead our team of strategists, working with some of the world's biggest brands and most exciting start-ups to build strategies that sit at the intersection of insight, culture, and purpose.

This involves servicing our senior client briefs, recognising and developing new growth opportunities across the Freuds Group, and nurturing a happy and high-performing strategic team.

You will do this by cultivating a collaborative, insightful and creative culture and by championing diverse perspectives - knowing that these ingredients are key to creating better work and more enjoyable working environments.

Have an experienced history in delivering effective strategies across brand, business and creative communications.

A great partner to Directors and Partners across the business – able to work together towards shared agency outcomes.

Have a proven track record of successful relationships with senior clients, and an ability to influence everyone from the brand manager to the CMO.

A strong presenter who develops impactful presentations through simple and creative storytelling.
Be well-versed in reviewing creative work and providing constructive feedback to improve and inspire its development.

Have a strong awareness and understanding of the media landscape and its influence on the success of our campaigns and creative output.

Have an excellent understanding of commercial business and how our work intersects with key metrics, e.g. sales, reputation, innovation, stakeholder engagement.
