Digitas is a highly-caffeinated playground where brilliant minds come together to make bold, award-winning marketing. We use data-driven insights to guide our work, but we also believe in a healthy dose of spirited storytelling as we strive to transform the marketing landscape.
We are looking for a Senior CRM Strategist who is adept in understanding how brands win customer’s loyalty through connected experiences, with a focus on owned channels (i.e. email, push notifications) but an overall point of view on the entire consumer funnel and how 1PD can be leveraged across. You’ll combine smart lateral thinking with the drive for effective results. Versatility is the key characteristic we look for in a Senior Strategist.
An ability to connect thinking across touch points, brand, data, creative, content, and media. You’ll join the strategy team, which delivers end-to-end solutions to help clients orchestrate their role, offering, audience, experience, platforms, and products. The successful candidate will therefore possess strong knowledge of CRM, customer experience, content, and data-driven & analytics solutions.
The Senior Strategist is an inventive individual that naturally owns the strategic agenda. Someone that brings creativity and authority to the role and a collaborative style that fits Digitas’ internal culture and external relationship with clients. Our culture is collegiate and thrives on diversity; Strategists work with client leads, creatives, data scientists, experience designers and solution consultants within Digitas as well as forming Power Of One solution teams across Publicis Groupe. At the inter-section of technology, data and creativity we believe we can offer more meaningful connected experiences between brands and people.
You will be responsible for owning the CRM strategy for a brand, working with the team to achieve set KPIs around engagement, loyalty, and business results. You will have direct ownership of loyalty strategies, contact plans & engagement strategies, and the digital experience, always with a data-driven approach. As part of your role, you need to be able to connect media, creative and digital strategies, and nurture the client’s customer database from acquisition through to becoming loyal customers of the brand. You will work closely with the client lead to build the client relationship as a trusted partner for long-term growth of the account.
The role is responsible for regional and local work, reporting to our Associate Strategy Director.
