Job description
Unlock Health breaks down the walls that healthcare providers have lived with for decades.

Title: Creative Strategist Direct Manager Title: Director or VP, Strategy
Location: We are prioritizing applicants local to Nashville, TN or Chicago, IL
The Role The essence of any strategic role at Unlock is to solve our clients’ business problems by developing breakthrough strategies (often by using compelling insight-driven research) and focusing the output of the agency in a way that leverages its creativity and expertise to produce a positive and measurable impact.
The Creative Strategist will work with oversight from a more senior member of the team, and often with other team members on a variety of assignments. To begin, the Strategist’s role may be to help facilitate the smooth passage of information or research data. However, over time, the Strategist should be helping to shape strategy by driving some of the component parts of the strategic effort in the account or project team. Ideally, there will be accounts/projects which will enable you to devote more time to, and have greater impact on, rather than jumping in and out of support work. This is a busy job, often with multiple demands, in a creative and dynamic environment.

- Create inputs for our proprietary strategic process

Ideal Qualifications
- 2-3 years’ experience in a strategic role
- Creative thinker and solid strategic-thinking skills
- Curious and open-minded, yet also decisive and solution-oriented in equal measure
- Clear understanding of:
- How research and insight can drive great creative output
- How to balance big-picture thinking with detailed and rigorous thought
- How to make a tangible difference to clients’ business
