Senior Creative Strategist (all genders)
Job description
We create relevance to achieve attention and to scale.
Visibility is not automatically relevance. Reach is not automatically impact.
WeCreate is a Social-First Brand Building Agency for the Interest-Media-Age. We translate social signals and community insights into social strategies, content systems, and measurable brand impact – as a strategic partner, campaign co-pilot, or operational implementation team.
For brands that want to not only exist but be culturally relevant and relevant within their communities, we are looking for you as aSenior Creative Strategist (all genders).
You combine strategic clarity with creative leadership. As the strategic voice of WeCreate, you develop our clients' brand and platform logic, translate it into effective content systems, and ensure that a good idea becomes a consistent, relevant, and platform-native content output.
Your Role
You are responsible for the overall strategic and creative direction of complex client mandates, from social brand positioning and platform/channel strategies to the overarching content systematic and quality assurance across all project phases.
You work independently at a senior level, make decisions with a high degree of creative freedom, and communicate confidently with brand decision-makers. You lead creative reviews, moderate sparring sessions, and provide guidance to clients and internal teams when strategic, creative, or operational questions arise.
Your focus is on integrated work with the team: You work at the WeCreate office in Hamburg for at least five days per month. Additionally, you bring the necessary flexibility for productions, workshops, client appointments, and offsite formats, even if they take place outside your usual work location.
Your Impact at WeCreate
You provide direction to brands and teams. You ensure that strategic clarity doesn't end in presentations but becomes visible in creative systems, relevant content, and consistent brand impact.
You connect the perspectives of clients, the Creative Studio, consulting, production, and platforms. In doing so, you are more than just an idea generator. You develop the logic behind the work, guide through complex decisions, and ensure that quality remains evident throughout all project phases.
As a Senior Creative Strategist, you not only strengthen individual client projects but also WeCreate's strategic and creative competence as an organization.
What awaits you:
- Overall Strategic and Creative Responsibility: You lead complex client mandates holistically, from digital brand positioning, platform, and channel strategy to the overarching creative concept and robust implementation logic.
- Senior Client and Team Leadership: You present strategies and creative concepts persuasively, moderate sparring sessions, and lead interdisciplinary teams to clear, sustainable decisions.
- Creative Strategy and Narrative Systems: You develop culturally relevant concepts, narratives, and content systems that function across platforms, formats, and touchpoints.
- Quality and Decision Leadership: You ensure strategic and creative quality from the task assignment to the final output, provide precise feedback, and recognize early on when the idea, brand, and platform logic diverge.
- Playbooks, Standards, and Expert Sparring: You develop binding guidelines for the Creative Studio and are an experienced sparring partner for clients as well as creative, strategy, and consulting teams.
- Coaching and Knowledge Building: You actively share your knowledge, coach colleagues, and strengthen not only individual work but also the strategic and creative working methods of the team.
- Systemic Collaboration and Development: You work closely with social, creator, community, production, and paid teams, accompany relevant productions and offsites, and further develop internal processes and AI-supported working methods. For this, you bring travel and appointment flexibility.
What you bring:
These are your core competencies
You can translate complex brand and business challenges into clear strategic positioning, creative concepts, and actionable content systems.
You have experience in the overall strategic and creative responsibility for demanding client mandates, campaigns, or brand tasks.
You can develop platform and channel strategies and connect them with an overarching content systematic.
You confidently present complex strategies to decision-makers and at C-level and can lead diverse stakeholders to clear decisions.
You have a strong feel for brands, content, platform culture, and societal as well as cultural signals.
You can ensure creative quality from concept, briefing, production, and final output and formulate feedback precisely, constructively, and bindingly.
You have experience in developing playbooks, standards, or guidelines and effectively conveying knowledge within teams.
This is how you work
You think strategically and creatively at the same time, without losing sight of the brand, the platform, or feasibility.
You make decisions independently, take responsibility, and provide orientation when requirements are complex or not yet fully clarified.
You communicate clearly, bindingly, and are negotiation-proficient in German as well as proficient in English.
You enjoy working integrated with other disciplines and know that the best work rarely happens at your own desk.
You are prepared to work at least five days a month at the Hamburg office and to participate flexibly on-site for productions, workshops, and offsite formats.
You enjoy sharing knowledge, providing technical coaching to colleagues, and jointly developing strategic and creative working methods.
What you get from us:
Flexibility with Connection
Hybrid work with our office in Hamburg as a team hub
At least five days a month of co-working in the office for integrated teamwork
Flexible working from home and, with prior agreement and if you fancy a change of perspective, temporarily from abroad
Flexibility for productions, workshops, client appointments, and offsite formats
Flexible working hours for a work style that fits your daily life
Free choice of your hardware
Benefits that truly benefit you
Joint events and workations, because good collaboration doesn't just happen on the calendar
Choice of a subsidy for a public transport ticket, a Probonio voucher, or an Urban Sports Club membership
Bagel breakfast in the office for a shared start to the day
And otherwise?
Short decision-making paths, a lot of personal responsibility, and trust in your expertise
A steep learning curve – without constant overtime as a supposed career program
Room to actively shape a growing agency and our working methods
Flat hierarchies and a respectful, open interaction with each other
Note on Employment:
The position is initially limited to two years – with the option for extension or conversion to a permanent employment contract.
