CREATIVE STRATEGIST

HELLO! 

We are looking for a mid-level strategist who has a strong strategic foundation and is hungry to continue to push and dimensionalize their skills.

At Decoded.monks, we operate at the crossroads of strategy, creative, media and data. We use a proprietary approach called Experimental Design that allows us to challenge long-held marketing assumptions (even our own) and to take bolder creative risks. Welcome to the future. Are you ready to explore it with us?

• Help storytell campaign learnings and craft strategic recommendations
• Be the expert on the different channels we operate in, particularly social 
• Work with a Strategy Director, Junior Strategist and Creative Analysts
• Ask interesting questions and provide fresh perspective ⚡

YOU BRING…

• 3+ years of experience working in a strategic role at a creative, social or performance marketing agency
• Enthusiasm for social and digital channels
• Hunger to continue to learn new skills
  

THE IDEAL CANDIDATE…

• Embraces quantitative and qualitative inputs (but hardcore Excel wizardry is not necessary)
• Ability to juggle multiple workstreams on one account
• Isn’t afraid to ask questions and learn by doing
• Brings strong presentation skills and confidence in front of clients

NOTE

This is a hybrid remote/in-person role that operates within Pacific Standard Time hours. This offers employees the flexibility to get their work done where it makes sense. However, there are occasions where we expect to collaborate in person in our LA offices or attend client meetings in our LA offices or at client offices.
