Senior Strategist

We Are Social
Los Angeles, CA

THE ROLE

We are looking for a Senior Strategist to join our growing strategy team. This is a team of brand thinkers with a deep passion for social because it’s where culture and audience insights take off. This is a client facing role for someone who lives to solve business problems through collaboration. Creative briefs are their love language and slides make them happy.

WE ARE

A creative agency powered by social connections. That means we thrive on what’s trending and creating campaigns that get people buzzing. We call it “Ideas Worth Talking About,” and we're proud to have played a part in some of the most culturally relevant campaigns of the decade for brands like McDonald’s, Adidas, Universal Studios, and YouTube.

WHY YOU’LL LOVE IT HERE

  • Our passport program lets you explore and work from one of our 18 other offices worldwide, including Paris, Singapore, Madrid, Dubai, London and more!
  • You best believe we know how to celebrate our wins. And our losses (it’s how we learn).

  • Did we say snacks? Because we have great snacks. (Shoutout to Sheila who keeps the kitchen stocked.)

YOU ARE

  • A person who thrives in a fast-paced environment, responding quickly and proactively
  • Not interested in just following trends – you want to create them
  • A self-starter, who’ll take ideas from concept to execution, navigating feedback like a pro

Traditional agency experience is not required, but it’s a plus. What matters is your deep understanding of what resonates with social audiences. This role is energetic, innovative and forward-thinking. Alongside engaging with communities, you’ll guide brands by staying ahead of social trends and cultural moments. In return, you’ll join a global agency dedicated to generating buzzworthy ideas for some of the world’s leading brands.

  • Keep up with key industry trends and social and paid platform updates with passion and curiosity
  • Present to clients with confidence and clarity
  • Be able to give creative feedback effectively
  • Mentor more junior teammates
  • Possess a commitment to selling work and connecting the dots from strategy to creative
