Strategy Director

About the role

WHO WE ARE Mojo Supermarket is a fully integrated agency built on the creative philosophy "Break your Brain Good." We create work that rewires the way people think and helps brands solve their biggest business challenges. By combining strategic thinking with bold creative, we deliver ideas that generate outsized business results for clients including TikTok, Burger King, Chase, DoorDash, Ruggable, and more. DESCRIPTION Mojo is looking for a Strategy Director to help shape the strategic thinking that drives the most ambitious creative work in the industry. We're looking for people who are endlessly curious about culture, ask better questions than everyone else in the room, and believe strategy should unlock work people actually care about. And we're looking for people who know how to have a lot of fun. This is a senior, hands-on role for someone with a strong foundation in brand strategy. You have the ability to apply your thinking across brand, comms, and social, using a deep understanding of audiences, culture, and business challenges to unlock brand success. You understand that strategy isn't the end product. It's what gives great creative work clarity, conviction, and direction. You don't just follow culture. You stay ahead of it. Your curiosity about behaviors, creators, communities, platforms, technologies, and conversations helps you spot what's becoming relevant before everyone else, turning cultural signals into opportunities for brands. You'll lead strategy across key client engagements, partner closely with creative and account teams, and translate complex challenges into clear, provocative direction that unlocks exceptional creative work. You'll report to the Head of Strategy while managing and mentoring teammates, helping raise the bar for strategic thinking across our growing strategy team. ROLES & RESPONSIBILITIES Lead strategy on major client engagements, from discovery through launch and ongoing optimization. Develop brand platforms, positioning, audience frameworks, messaging, and strategic narratives that create a clear foundation for creative work. Bring a strong point of view on how brands earn relevance today, including the role of culture, community, creators, social platforms, media behavior, and emerging formats. Translate business challenges, research, and cultural signals into concise, inspiring creative briefs and clear strategic direction. Partner closely with creative leadership to push ideas from "on brief" to genuinely distinctive, culturally resonant work. Lead and contribute to client workshops, working sessions, presentations, and senior-level conversations. Work across brand, campaign, social, and content assignments, bringing enough range to determine what each problem actually requires. Build trusted relationships with clients by being clear, curious, commercially minded, and willing to challenge assumptions constructively. Help shape the quality and rigor of the strategy team's work, including mentoring and developing a Senior Strategist or junior team member. Contribute to new business, including strategic framing, insight development, brief writing, and pitch storytelling. Stay close to shifts in consumer behavior, culture, media, technology, and the categories our clients operate in, then turn those shifts into useful implications rather than trend reports. WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE In the first 6-12 months, you will have: Become a trusted strategic partner to key clients and internal creative leaders. Helped create sharper, more differentiated brand and campaign work on priority accounts. Raised the quality of briefs, presentations, and strategic storytelling across the team. Provided meaningful day-to-day support and development to a Senior Strategist or junior strategist. Expanded Mojo's ability to move fluidly from brand platform to communications, social, and cultural activation. SKILLS 8+ years of experience in strategy at a creative, brand, communications, social, or integrated agency. Deep experience in brand strategy, including positioning, audience definition, brand architecture, messaging, and platform development. A meaningful second discipline in communications planning, social strategy, cultural strategy, media behavior, or digital experience. Experience leading strategy on consumer-facing brands, ideally including beauty, wellness, personal care, food and beverage, retail, lifestyle, or other high-consideration, culturally relevant categories. Strong instincts for work aimed at women and diverse audiences, with the ability to find a human, specific truth rather than defaulting to category conventions. A track record of making strategy that creatives want to make, not strategy that only works in a deck. Excellent writing, storytelling, and presentation skills. Experience managing, mentoring, or meaningfully developing at least one more junior strategist. Comfort moving between long-term brand questions and fast-moving campaign, social, and content needs.
