The posting

About Uncovered:

Uncovered is an award-winning, London-based social-first creative agency founded in 2017. Social sits at the heart of everything we do.

From strategy to production, our team is fluent in the language of social, with a deep understanding of culture, platforms and the audiences that shape them. Working with a diverse portfolio of brands, we uncover what makes each one distinctive and create ideas built for where attention lives today. Our approach is rooted in social-first fundamentals: real people, real stories and video-first creativity.

We create at the speed of social; strategising, ideating, designing and producing through our team of in-house strategists, creatives, art directors, copywriters, producers, editors and videographers. We test, learn and iterate in real time, delivering end-to-end solutions from creative strategy through to production, reporting and analytics.

Named Campaign's Social Media Agency of the Year in 2026, Uncovered has become one of the UK's fastest-growing creative agencies, driven by a simple ambition: to build the best social-first creative agency in the world. Today, as part of LBG Media, we combine independent creative thinking with unrivalled social insight and cultural influence to help brands create work that earns attention and drives meaningful impact.

Our culture is as important as our creative. We believe the best ideas come from diverse perspectives, collaborative thinking and an environment where people can do the best work of their careers. With women representing around 60% of our leadership team, we're committed to building an inclusive, ambitious culture where talent is nurtured, creativity thrives and everyone has the opportunity to make a difference.

The Role

We are looking for an experienced and dynamic Strategy Director to join our award-winning strategy team. Reporting directly to the Head of Strategy, you will play a pivotal role in driving strategic excellence across our roster of household client brands.

You will also help manage and grow a talented team of strategists, helping elevate our strategic craft agency-wide.

  • Team Leadership & Line Management: Direct, mentor, and develop a team of strategists. Define efficient ways of working cross-department, set clear performance targets, provide ongoing coaching, and support your direct reports in developing their own management skills.

  • Proven experience in a Strategy / Planning Director role

  • Solid understanding of budgeting and reporting

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
