Hiring: Trainee Strategist

By Sonya Misquitta

WHO WE ARE: 

Studio Jigsaw is a start-up consultancy in the brand strategy and innovation space.

We believe in StoryDoing, that brand should become the operating system for a company and influence not only how it looks/ sounds, but its offerings, operations, culture and even its structure.

We believe the pandemic has opened up new opportunities as start-ups and incumbents look to reinvent their business models, restructure the way they work and incubate new ideas around a clear and compelling purpose.

We partner with clients to set visions for their future offerings at the intersection of technology, brand purpose, and human behaviour. We design bespoke, actionable outputs – business models, brand identity systems, prototypes, and pilot programmes – that accelerate a client's transformation and the path to commercial success.

And we're looking for people who can grow as we grow.

 

THE ROLE:

Defining brand stories and building it into design and innovation.

 

WHO YOU ARE:

You are an ambidextrous thinker — strategic and creative. You like to solve big problems. You’re a generous collaborator, empathetic, culturally atune, willing to jump-in, geek-out and work in a non-traditional venture. You have the ambition of combining your professional experience and education to shape our world for the better.

 

WHAT YOU’LL DO: 

Studio Jigsaw is a start-up which requires wearing many hats. Below are some responsibilities you can anticipate:

  • Rigorous research: You will analyze markets, brands, culture, human behaviour and other timely themes to inform strategic recommendations.
  • Business development: You will generate new business leads, update client database and support proposal development and thought leadership with killer insights.
  • Project management: You will update status, track milestones, co-ordinate with partners, and facilitate meeting prep for client meetings.
  • Client interaction: You will participate in presentations, workshops, interviews and other key moments throughout the life of a project.
  • Collaborative creation: You will be part of a diverse group of project partners— independent strategists, creatives, coders and other creators-- to bring ideas to life for amazing clients.

 

QUALIFICATIONS:

  • 1-2 years of work experience either client-side or at a company with similar service offerings (marketing, consulting, digital products or branding).
  • Master's degree in social sciences, humanities or a personal passion field. MBAs are welcome but not required.
  • Must have a clear interest in innovation, design, brands and solving meaty problems.
  • Strong oral and written communication skills.
  • Strong analytical and critical thinking abilities.
  • Strong attention to detail and highly organized. Knowledge and comfort with Google Workspace (and an ability to learn new collaboration tools like Miro, Slack, Canva etc.)

 

WHY WORK WITH US?

  • High learning: Our projects are never the same, and finding the right process or insight to a unique challenge takes both EQ and IQ.
  • High involvement: You will be expected to clearly speak your mind to help us make better decisions. You can instinctively spot an issue and work to find a solution or bring one to the table. You will be involved through the entire lifecycle of a project. You must quickly learn our client’s business and help the team, project partners and clients stay focused on the processes and outputs that will deliver new relevance.
  • High impact: We work with our clients, not for them. Our job is to help them succeed with their most important audiences.

 

WHERE DO I SIGN UP?

Only shortlisted candidates will be contacted.

 

LOCATION: Pune, full-time.
