Job DescriptionCompany description
Saatchi & Saatchi was founded on a simple, yet ambitious belief: “Nothing Is Impossible.” That belief has inspired us to help our clients realize what they thought were impossible ambitions. It’s led the agency to invent entirely new ways to communicate. And now, it’s pushing us to deliver previously impossible levels of impact through Intelligent Creativity, backed by Publicis Groupe’s unprecedented $12B+ investment in AI, data and technology. We’re excited about what we’ll make possible next – and all that’s missing is talent like you.
Saatchi & Saatchi currently maintains a hybrid work policy to work in-office four days per week. This role is based in New York City, with no exceptions.

Responsibilities

- Help design and conduct research to support brand strategy work
- Help synthesize research into clear observations, insights, and takeaways
- Support the development of strategic frameworks and creative briefs
- Help organize and pressure‑test thinking before it goes to creative teams or clients
- Participate in working sessions and brainstorms with strategy, creative, and account partners
- Learn how strategists connect what people care about with where brands can grow
- Be introduced to core strategy frameworks used by the team to evaluate growth opportunities and guide brand decisions
- Gain exposure to how strategy works across different clients and categories in a New York agency setting
