Dallas, TX

We are PMG

Named Ad Age Best Places to Work for 11 years in a row and Fast Company Best Workplaces for Innovators since 2022, PMG is a global independent marketing services and technology company that seeks to inspire people and brands that anything is possible. Driven by shared success, PMG leverages business strategy and transformation, creative, media, and insights—as well as its proprietary operating system, Alli—to deliver cutting-edge digital solutions and innovative media strategies.

Our team comprises over 900 employees globally, and our work for ambitious brands like Apple, Nike, Sephora, Experian, Therabody, Best Western Hotels & Resorts, Creed Fragrances, BNY, Intuit, CKE Restaurants, Travelex, and Whole Foods spans 85+ countries.

The Strategy Senior Lead is an experienced practitioner and emerging leader who drives high-impact strategic engagements across business transformation, consulting and go-to-market strategy. This role operates at the intersection of consulting rigor and modern marketing capability, guiding clients through complex business challenges with the depth and discipline of a top-tier management consulting firm.

The Strategy Senior Lead is expected to frame core business problems, shape transformative solutions, manage cross-functional project teams, and build trusted, lasting relationships with senior client stakeholders. They bring a strong point of view, command executive rooms, and translate strategic ambiguity into clear, actionable direction.

This is a versatile leadership role. Depending on client context and business need, the Strategy Senior Lead may be operating in one or more strategic domains, from business and organizational transformation, marketing and growth strategy, technology and digital enablement, to data and AI-driven decision-making.

What You Will Do

Business and Transformation Strategy

Lead the design and execution of complex analytical studies, such as market entry evaluations, organizational assessments, digital transformation readiness analyses, and marketing effectiveness reviews, to inform C-suite level decisions.

Develop comprehensive business transformation roadmaps, defining key strategic initiatives, sequencing timelines, outlining resource requirements, and embedding critical change management considerations.

Facilitate executive workshops and conduct senior stakeholder interviews to define strategic objectives, surface critical business issues, and co-create solutions with client leadership.

Manage project teams across the full delivery lifecycle, from initial problem framing through final presentation, ensuring the quality, timeliness, and strategic impact of all workstreams.

Client Engagement and Stakeholder Leadership

Serve as a primary day-to-day strategic partner to senior client stakeholders (Director to VP level), proactively managing expectations, surfacing risks, and navigating complex organizational dynamics.

Build trusted advisor relationships that extend beyond individual engagements, positioning the team as a long-term strategic partner to client leadership.

Present strategic findings and recommendations to executive audiences with clarity, authority, and a strong, defensible point of view.

Identify whitespace: surface unmet needs within client organizations and translate them into scoped, well-defined strategic engagements that deepen the partnership.

Strategic Analysis and Problem Solving

Frame ambiguous, high-stakes business problems using structured consulting methodologies (issue trees, hypothesis-driven approaches, scenario planning) to guide rigorous analysis.

Synthesize quantitative and qualitative data into insight-driven narratives that connect business strategy to measurable outcomes.

Evaluate competitive landscapes, macroeconomic conditions, consumer behavior shifts, and technology inflection points to build strategic perspectives that are both grounded and forward-looking.

Identify where AI, automation, and emerging technology create real transformation leverage (not just efficiency gains) and build that perspective into client recommendations.

Team Leadership and Mentorship

Structure and lead engagement teams of junior and mid-level strategists. This means defining the work plan, assigning ownership, setting quality standards, and running the rhythm of an engagement.

Actively mentor junior strategists in core consulting disciplines including structured thinking, data analysis, executive storytelling, and stakeholder management.

Champion the integration of AI-enabled tools and automation into engagement delivery, elevating both the quality and efficiency of strategic work.

Capability Building, and Thought Leadership

Contribute to the firm's intellectual capital: proprietary frameworks, published perspectives, reusable methodologies, and internal training that raise the collective capability.

Support business development efforts by contributing to pitch narratives, proposal development, and strategic positioning for new client opportunities.

Stay ahead of macro trends in business, marketing, measurement and technology to bring fresh, forward-looking perspectives to client engagements and developing proprietary thought leadership.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
