Constructive is a leading social impact strategy and design firm that helps advance social, environmental, and economic justice. We’re a close-knit, committed, and values-driven team of experts and advocates who partner with ambitious organizations to make the world a more fair, equitable, and sustainable place.  If you’d like to get a feel for our culture, read our company values here.

We are looking to add an experienced Lead Digital Strategist to our team who will play a leading role in our strategy practice, with a priority on digital and a need to also develop broader brand strategy. This role is a great fit for a seasoned strategist with a passion for social impact who has great research skills and a strong understanding of how nonprofit brands can effectively engage audiences, particularly through websites that emphasize storytelling and knowledge mobilization.

Your research, insights, and resulting strategy will be the foundation on which we design and build brand experiences that drive social impact—primarily through websites that effectively position nonprofit brands to deepen audience engagement, deliver valuable content, and drive measurable outcomes.

About the Role

Constructive’s Lead Digital Strategist will drive the discovery and development process of strategies for our social impact clients that are the foundation of the brand experiences they create. They will be great at understanding how to effectively position and strengthen a brand, the intersection of brand and audience needs/goals, and the specific outcomes and overall impact that our clients are seeking to have through our work with them. 

They will lead asset discovery, stakeholder engagement, as well as desk and audience research to understand the ecosystem in which a brand exists and its challenges and opportunities. They’ll ask probing questions and make recommendations as part of brand/digital assessments. They will clarify clear goals, outcomes and KPIs for our clients and the projects we work on with them. They’ll develop strategies that are documented in Strategic Briefs that make those impacts possible at the intersection of brand, content, design, and technology. They will be a collaborative partner who works closely with members of our strategy, content, design, and engineering teams to ensure that there is a strong, connective through-line between strategy and execution. And they will play a role in building on client successes by focusing on how the results of our work are measured and optimized.

  • Strategy Development: Develop strategy documents, such as Strategy Briefs that strengthen brand positioning and value and that drive audience engagement, collaborating with Constructive team leads in other disciplines as appropriate.
  • Strategic Execution Alignment: Align other Constructive team members on resulting strategy that will influence their work, and stay engaged throughout execution to ensure that our results are aligned with strategic imperatives.
