• Want to be part of cross-functional teams with members from Data, Design and Technology.
• Have an entrepreneurial mindset, thrive in a start-up environment, value a collaborative culture.

• Defining business problems and formulate hypotheses, leveraging the resources and know-how of Wunderman Thompson Consulting.
• Structuring, leading and participating in client workshops and strategy brainstorming sessions.
• Identifying new offerings and propositions for WTC that could lead to commercial opportunities

What we want from you:

• Prior strategy consulting experience at a top tier strategy consulting company (McKinsey, Bain, BCG, Strategy&...) or a process consulting company (Capgemini, Accenture, Big 4…).
• Experience working in a client-facing environment, preferably in strategic, digital transformation projects and leading projects from start to finish.
• Understanding of marketing, including trends, outputs etc, from having delivered projects within the sector or having previously worked in a marketing department.
• Strong analytical, research, communication and presentation skills.
• Critical and creative thinking and ability to execute on the details.
• Knowledge of strategic concepts and frameworks.
• Ability to engage with potential new clients.
• Enthusiasm, courage, and curiosity
• A thirst for knowledge and a desire to show that the impossible is possible.
