Help us shape the strategy behind the LEGO Group’s biggest campaign, Holiday.
The LEGO Agency Strategy team is on the lookout for a creative thinker, cultural explorer, and storytelling problem-solver to lead strategy for the annual Holiday campaign .
This is not your average strategy role. You’ll be dreaming up big ideas, connecting the dots between data and delight and helping bring to life a campaign that’s as meaningful as it is creatively magical and commercial successful.
This is a 12-month role covering parental leave
Core responsibilities
Define the why: Partner with brand partners to craft the overarching strategy and annual theme for the LEGO Holiday campaign rounded in insights, inspired by culture and built for impact.
Turn strategy into sparks: Translate business and marketing strategy into inspiring creative direction that fuels FAME-driving ideas and helps bring more LEGO Building to the world in unexpected ways.
Be the glue: Build strong, collaborative relationships across the LEGO Agency (OLA), brand teams, external partners, global entities and media partners, creating a shared vision that everyone can rally around.
Wear many strategy hats: From brand narrative creation and audience definition to creative brief writing, campaign architecture and communication strategy, your thinking will guide the work every step of the way.
Inspire the work: Facilitate creative workshops, uncover unexpected insights, and always look for new ways to make the work bolder, smarter and more playful.
Connect the dots: Partner with comms, social and shopper strategists to ensure a unified approach and bring in the right brains at the right time.
Think outside of the LEGO Brick: Bring fresh, outside-in perspectives that challenge the norm and elevate our thinking. Surprise us with what we didn’t know we needed.
