At Wunderman Thompson we exist to inspire growth for ambitious brands. Part creative agency, part consultancy and part technology company, our experts provide end-to-end capabilities at a global scale to deliver inspiration across the entire brand and customer experience.
We are 20,000 strong in 90 markets around the world; our people bring together creative storytelling, diverse perspectives, inclusive thinking, and highly specialized vertical capabilities to drive growth for our clients. We offer deep expertise across the entire customer journey, including communications, commerce, consultancy, CRM, CX, data, production, and technology.
Who we are looking for:
Wunderman Thompson is seeking a Group Strategy Director to lead the Sherwin-Williams business out of the Midwest office, which includes team members in Chicago, Minneapolis, and beyond.
Building on a successful agency-client relationship at an important moment of growth, the Group Strategy Director will have the unique leadership opportunity to partner in plotting the course of how the brand can be a marketing leader. The role’s two key relationships will be first, as a leader among their agency colleagues, and second, as a trusted consultant to the client.
The nature of this role’s work will primarily be to develop creative, campaign, and content strategy for mostly B2B marketing. This will include developing strategies for how the brand raises awareness of its offerings, launches new products, breaks through at trade shows, harnesses social and email, and most effectively uses its websites. Also, partnering with team members who specialize in experience design and experience strategy, this Group Strategy Director will guide the creation of new online and offline content and the evolution of the brand’s digital products (apps). Finally, vital to this role is an aptitude for solving marketing and business challenges more broadly – e.g., What new audiences should be prioritized? How can the client’s marketing organization evolve? – as a trusted advisor to the lead client.
As the strategic leader over the business, this person’s vision and intimate understanding of the client’s business will not only guide their work in the immediate, but also shape how their work, their role, and the engagement more broadly each evolve over time.
This person will report to the Head of Strategy of the Central Region.
