We are looking for a talented Mid?Weight Brand Strategist to join our team and help us create meaningful brands.
The Role
You're equal parts strategist and collaborator.
You know how to read a brief, challenge it, and turn it into a strategic direction that inspires the creative team and convinces the client.
But more than anything, you care about brands: what they stand for, how they connect with people, and why some of them last.
That conviction is what drives your work, and it shows in every project you touch.
What You Will Do
You define the strategic territory of each project: the framework that guides every creative decision that follows.
You do real research: ethnography, market analysis, trend forecasting, benchmarking.
And you turn it into actionable insight, not endless decks.
You have your own way of working with AI: as a layer of depth, not a shortcut.
You use it to explore conceptual territories, challenge your own assumptions, and generate hypotheses you then validate.
You have a method and it keeps evolving.
You tell stories: from brief to creative rationale, from workshop to strategy doc.
Your writing is part of your value.
You present to clients with clarity and conviction: defending decisions, articulating the why behind every choice.
You design and facilitate co?creation and innovation workshops with clients.
You know how to walk into a room full of stakeholders and make the session work.
You work with the creative team from day one.
Strategy doesn't stop when the visual work begins: you stay with it to the end.
You manage your own time and priorities.
You know how long things take and communicate early before it becomes a problem.
What We're Looking For
At least 3 years of experience in a creative agency or design studio.
A deep understanding of consumer branding: identity, narrative, positioning, architecture.
Strong conceptual thinking: the ability to move from abstract idea to concrete execution.
Real experience with research methodologies: ethnography, interviews, cultural analysis.
Beyond desk research.
An active practice with AI tools applied to strategy.
Real interest, not passive familiarity.
Excellent written and spoken Spanish and English.
Catalan and Portuguese are a bonus.
The kind of proactivity that sees what needs doing before anyone asks.
Genuinely curious: about people, culture, business, and the world brands live in.
What We Offer
Full?time contract.
Hybrid model (2 days/week remote) and Fridays afternoons off.
22 days of annual leave + additional days off over Easter and Christmas.
Intensive working hours (until 15:00h) during July and August.
Adaptable salary compensation plan (including meal vouchers, transport, training, and more).
A dog?friendly, highly creative, and multidisciplinary studio environment in the Barcelona WPP Campus.
