Named a 2024 Innovation SABRE Disruptive Agency of the Year, an Ad Age A-List Standout Agency and Adweek’s 2023 Midsize Agency of the Year—the shop’s nimble talent model unlocks holistic creative problem solving. Our capabilities span the entire marketing ecosystem: Brand and influencer strategy, design, experiential, social, branded content, media, PR and more. Backed by an award-winning culture, we’ve earned Best Place To Work honors 14 years in a row. 

At Colle McVoy, we believe the best brands aren’t just seen. They’re felt. And the best strategists aren’t just thinkers. They’re builders. 

We’re looking for a Senior Strategist who wants to do more than answer briefs. You want to shape the future of brands, culture, and creativity. You see strategy as a generative force—one that connects insight with invention, instinct with intelligence, and belief with behavior. You get fired up by complexity, but you know how to make things simple.  

This role is for someone hungry to leave their fingerprints on work that matters—and to grow inside a team that moves fast, works collaboratively, and believes curiosity is a leadership trait. 

Why This Role Matters Now:
The world has changed. Brands need more than attention—they need a reason to exist in people’s lives. 
We’re building the kind of strategy team that can guide clients into that future. Not with slide decks, but with systems, stories, and soul. You’ll be at the center of that mission. 

• Work across some of the agency’s most dynamic accounts—from household names to breakout innovators.
• Write briefs that aren’t just clear—they’re catalytic. You know how to spark ideas and align teams fast.
• Translate brand truths and business objectives into action across platforms: social, digital, experiential, influencer, media, design, and earned.
• Identify patterns others miss—by listening, reading culture, and connecting human behavior with business ambition.
• Design and synthesize research (qual, quant, cultural) and make the insights sing.
• Make strategy feel accessible, exciting, and essential—whether you’re in a client meeting or a hallway brainstorm. 

• Ability to integrate emerging AI technologies into daily workflows to drive innovation, enhance automation, and support operational excellence.
• Comfort with design thinking, cultural semiotics, social listening tools, or mixed-methods research.
• Skilled at navigating ambiguity and bringing focus to the room.
• Always learning, always sharing. You’re hungry, humble, and highly attuned.
• Comfortable in the company of creatives, analysts, and clients.
• Equally fluent in audience insight, business logic, and cultural relevance. 
• A belief that strategy is best when it’s co-authored—across teams, with clients, and sometimes even with consumers.
• A point of view on AI’s role in the future of brand-building

• Bachelor’s degree in communications, marketing or related field. 
• 4+ years of brand or communications strategy experience, preferably agency-side.
• Experience building brand platforms and GTM strategies (B2C or B2B).
• A systems thinker and a storyteller—someone who can hold the whole ecosystem in their head and still craft a killer deck.

At the time of posting, the base salary for this position ranges from $70,000 to $90,000. Compensation will be determined based on a variety of factors, including but not limited to relevant skills, experience, and qualifications. In addition to the base salary, we offer a comprehensive benefits package, including health and wellness options, agency perks, and the flexibility of a hybrid work environment.
