What you will do:

  • Turn insight into opportunity by synthesising customer research, Visa and client data, cultural and category trends, competitor activity and macro context into clear strategic direction that demonstrates how partnering with Visa can help clients accelerate business growth.
  • Develop integrated client propositions that connect business objectives with brand, customer, lifecycle, communications, experience, sponsorship, media and activation opportunities.
  • Create compelling strategic narratives, presentations and proposals that clearly articulate the problem, opportunity, solution and expected business outcome.
  • Advise and influence senior clients, confidently presenting recommendations, facilitating workshops and constructively challenging conventional thinking.
  • Connect strategy to execution and measurement, ensuring recommendations are actionable and linked to meaningful customer and commercial outcomes.
  • Bring an informed external perspective, identifying emerging shifts in consumer behaviour, culture, technology, AI, media and commerce and translating them into opportunities for clients.
  • Raise the strategic standard across Marketing Services by developing frameworks, thought leadership, case studies and best practices that can be scaled across clients and markets.

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.
