As a Lead Strategist, you will play an integral role in how teams’ approach and solve a range of complex business challenges – challenges such as helping companies launch new product ventures, helping a CIO to leverage their digital assets more effectively, improving the effectiveness of customer sales teams, and breaking down why a retail app might have a customer engagement problem.
