Born and based in Barcelona, Nacar is an award-winning Strategic Design Agency, impassioned by our agile and international team composed of over 90 creative professionals (design strategists, researchers, product and UX / UI designers, engineers, and overall creatives). We work with all-size clients from across multiple industries, collaborating in innovation and establishing solutions and product strategies that apply to Industrial, Digital, Brand and Service Design. With a hybrid-work model and adaptable working hours, we are powered by a culture of communication, collaboration, proactivity and positivity, always aiming to humanize technology experiences and to transform into the phygital future.

Our team is connected by common challenges, eager to discover, envision and materialize new opportunities. We're currently looking for a Foresight and Future Design Lead to lead our strategic vertical at Nacar. This is a role that combines two things that rarely go together: the ability to read the world before others do, and the discipline to translate that reading into rigorous and profitable projects.

Act as the vertical's antenna — maintaining a live, first‐hand reading of the landscape: trends, weak signals, emerging behaviours and technologies reshaping industries. Build editorial presence beyond decks — writing, speaking and publishing with your own voice to elevate the Nacar brand. Lead the strategic quality of the services within the vertical: Lead the most ambiguous projects within the vertical — those requiring reframing and vision, not just method.

Direct multidisciplinary squads activated by project, elevating the level of everyone working with you — leadership by gravity,



not by hierarchy. Manage timelines, resources and expectations to keep the vertical profitable. Partner with the commercial team on pre‐sales of strategic accounts, contributing brief reframing and methodological framing -5+ years of experience in strategic design or innovation consulting- Ideally with time spent at a generalist player that gave you fluency in business language. ~ Hybrid career path across the 3 disciplines of the vertical: foresight, user research, and product definition.

Proven leadership in complex projects — activating, challenging and elevating the work of more junior strategists and researchers. Fluent in English (written and spoken); Spanish is a plus. Not a pure UX researcher.

Not a traditional strategy consultant without design sensibility. Not a purely intellectual profile that doesn't get hands‐on with projects. It's the rare hybrid between a foresight strategist with their own voice, and an operational lead who sustains the quality of the vertical -This is a unique opportunity for someone looking for a challenge in the strategy and foresight area and to be part of a center of innovation that is impacting clients all over the world — leading a vertical with real editorial and commercial impact.

Permanent contract. ~ Hybrid working model - you can either work from home or enjoy our beautiful studio (with free coffee and a great garden!). ~ Keep challenging yourself with our Nacar Academy training program, aligned with the creation of personalized career paths. ~Monthly allowance for internet costs and a budget for working‐from‐home materials. ~ Health Insurance. Flexible working hours. ~
