Strategy Analyst This is very much a live role, our client urgently needs to hire this key member of their team. We've been working on it for a while but have yet to crack it. We're either finding agency strategists who are a good cultural match for the position but lack a sufficient depth of analytical skills, or management consultants who have the right kind of technical skills but are not a cultural match. Hopefully, this gives you a better idea of whether or not you a good match for this immediate vacancy.

You will be challenged to work independently and use your intelligence, wit and resourcefulness to figure things out. They move fast and will expect you to keep pace with us. You will not be left to sink or swim (we promise) but there will be many occasions when you just need to get on with things. They tend to be drawn to people who aren’t cookie cutter, who have an interesting edge about them. They like a little flavour and character in the team.
