Want to help build a world that works better for everyone? Kin + Carta is a global digital transformation consultancy that makes a difference to the billions who now work, play, shop, communicate and share online.

Join a global team of curious and diverse minds in connecting people, data and technology to produce amazing experiences for some of the world's most influential companies.

People, the planet, and profit matter equally to us which is why we're a certified B Corporation in the United States and Europe. With additional offices in South America, there is a place for you here wherever you're based.

**The role in a nutshell**:
We are looking for the strategic leader to support our ambitious trajectory, and keep proving that Kin + Carta makes sustainable digital transformation happen. As a member of the strategy practice, you will always have a varied role, between pre-sales & GTM, project or programme leadership, and stakeholder engagement and management. Over your first six months with Kin + Carta, you are likely to have an opportunity to participate in all of the below:
**Help Kin + Carta win more work, and uncover new opportunities**
- Pitch and win work for K+C across our target and growth verticals, leveraging your extensive experience and deep understanding of client needs
- Work with our Portfolio Directors to deeply understand client needs and grow our presence in existing client organisations
- Evolve our GTM proposition to meet emergent opportunities based on prospect and client contact time

**Help Kin + Carta build its presence and credentials across Digital Transformation with new content and ideas**
- Develop points of view, marketing content and activities to drive awareness of what we do and how we do it
- Represent K+C externally at events and conferences
- Targeted or ongoing coaching, counselling or network building within client organisations to help us deliver the best possible work and uncover commercial opportunities
- Coach, mentor and manage team members from different disciplines and people across K+C.
- Help junior associates with less complex digital transformation or client-wrangling experience to rapidly progress and develop

**Develop new propositions and ventures for clients**
- Work with clients and cross-functional team of developers and designers to uncover new opportunities to create value or improve their organisation with technology
- Experiment, incubate and prioritise to make the case for further investment in the most promising opportunities

**Lead a strategic product or transformation project**
- Work in a tight, cross-functional team with our clients to explore, validate and uncover a path to delivery for a new product or service, or outline an organisational transformation roadmap

**The type of person we'd love to meet**:

- You have a wealth of experience and understanding of digital transformation and the nuances of delivering change in enterprise environments, either in-house or in a consultancy context
- Experienced in the development and delivery of new business pitches and proposals
- You're an innovative thinker who pushes the boundaries and loves thinking about commercially viable solutions for organisations to embrace digital solutions for growth and efficiency
- You can lead out on and effectively communicate a product, service, or transformation strategy to C level stakeholders, and are able to demonstrate strong understanding of ROI and business benefits of digital change.
- You're able to think in both business and behavioural models, researching and analysing organisations, and develop insight into customer behaviour;
- Somebody who possess a deep knowledge of how products and services get built, launched and grow - from discovery through to delivery and live;
- You're able to employ a varied toolkit of frameworks and techniques from across disparate areas of consulting, design, technology and tangential fields;
- You truly understand what makes an excellent customer experience, and how that translates into commercial success for businesses;

**Nice to Have**:
