Are you endlessly curious about why people choose the brands they do, and what culture tells us about where they’re heading next? Do you love digging into research until you find the insight that changes everything? Are you ready to take ownership of your work and grow fast alongside some of the sharpest brand strategists in the industry? This might be your next role.
The opportunity
We’re continuing to grow our Stockholm team and are looking for a full-time Junior Brand Strategist, ideally starting in January 2027.
What you’ll do
You’ll own individual tasks within our brand strategy projects, working closely with more senior strategists who will coach you along the way. You’ll be part of everything from repositioning global industrial companies to building new brands for start-ups, and you’ll see firsthand how strategy turns into identities and experiences.
Main responsibilities
Conduct qualitative and quantitative research across markets, competitors, and culture with support from seniors
Synthesize research findings into structured summaries that uncover patterns and feed strategic hypotheses
Shadow senior strategists in client interviews, workshops, and presentations; manage logistics, capture key dynamics, and learn the craft of presenting, debating, and applying strategy
Actively contribute to the team’s work with your own analyses, reflections, and perspectives
Prepare and build drafts of presentation decks and workshop material
What we’re looking for
You might come from business, marketing, psychology, journalism, design, or somewhere else entirely. What matters is that you’re curious, structured, and eager to learn, and that you’re ready to share your own perspective.
Qualifications
A Master’s degree and/or up to 1 year of relevant work experience, such as internships or projects in brand, research, or communication
A strong interest in brand building, consumer behavior, culture, and what makes people choose one brand over another
Strong listening and communication skills, written and spoken
A collaborative, proactive way of working, and you welcome coaching and feedback
Fluent in English; additional languages (including Swedish) are a plus
Eligibility to work in Sweden

How to apply
Send us your resume and a short letter introducing your background. In it, please cover two things:
The last thing you went way too deep on, just because you wanted to understand it. It could be anything, from a subculture to a historical event or a product. What pulled you in, and what did you discover that surprised you?
Something you used to believe, about brands, people, or yourself, that you no longer do. What changed your mind?
Keep the letter to one A4 page at most. We’re reading for how you think and how you express yourself — so give us your own thinking, in your own voice. We’d much rather read something genuinely yours than something perfectly polished by AI.
Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis until November 1, 2026.
