Strategist wanted  

There are business consultants who fit right into working with sourcing, cost reductions or large re-organization projects. Then there are business consultants who think those projects are all right, but have a nagging feeling that there might be another dimension to things. Who long for a context where they can pair their strategic skills and capabilities with creativity and intuition.

If you are one the latter – you’ve come to the right place.

Kurppa Hosk is a brand consultancy firm with 45+ employees and offices in Stockholm and New York. We call our philosophy “Business Artistry”. That means we solve complex business problems by combining the sharpest strategic minds with the best designers in the industry. We work with brave organizations – from early-stage startups, to some of the world’s most admired companies and brands. Among our clients are Armani, Esteé Lauder, H&M, Intrum, Pinterest, Axfood, Sandvik, Scania, Dustin, Sweco, SEB and Tele2. Kurppa Hosk is part-owned by Altor and belongs to the same business group as Curamando, Conversionista, Animal and Keybroker, with whom we partner closely.

We now need to expand with another strategist.

As a strategist at Kurppa Hosk you’ll be working on projects within business, brand, design and communication strategy. Our deliverables include brand insight and analysis, segmentation, positioning, brand platforms, brand architecture and portfolio strategies.

Your role is to lead or take part in complex strategy projects, working in teams with other strategists. You’ll also collaborate closely with designers, UX designers and account people.

All of the above calls for great intellectual capabilities, people skills and leadership talent, as well as a keen interest in learning Kurppa Hosk’s creative process and adhering to our quality standards. You also need to be a good process leader, self-propelled and an extremely capable communicator, able to present and convince on C-suite level. English proficiency is a requirement.

You most probably have 5+ years’ experience from a management consultancy firm or brand agency and a degree either within business administration, industrial management and/or marketing.
