  • Collaborate with consulting, technology, creative, and digital experience teams to shape forward-looking, cross-functional solutions.
  • Build and nurture relationships with OEMs, mobility players, and digital disruptors.
  • Support business development by providing sector intelligence, driving pitch strategy, and engaging with executive stakeholders.
  • Continuously track sector shifts and competitor movements to inform strategic decision-making and internal capability building.

Requirements:

  • 10+ years of experience with a blend of automotive industry and professional services (consulting, agency, or tech/digital transformation).
  • Proven exposure to front-end automotive functions such as brand, retail, digital sales, advertising, CX, or product innovation .
  • Strong understanding of the evolving auto ecosystem, particularly around digital transformation, customer experience, and go-to-market strategies.
  • Track record of delivering strategic value to auto clients in an advisory or cross-functional leadership capacity.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills; comfortable working with C-level clients and internal teams.
  • Ability to work across teams, manage ambiguity, and translate market insights into actionable strategies.

Nice to Have:

  • MBA or advanced degree in Business, Engineering, or related field.
  • Global experience, particularly in North America, Europe, or Asia.
  • Knowledge of adjacent sectors (tech, energy, infrastructure) that influence the future of mobility.

What We're Not Looking For:

  • Candidates whose primary experience is in supply chain , procurement, or traditional corporate marketing roles without customer-facing strategic exposure.

Why Join Us?

  • Shape how the automotive industry engages with the future of mobility, retail, and customer experience.
  • Work alongside a diverse, forward-thinking team across strategy, consulting, and technology.
  • Be part of a fast-paced environment with the opportunity to create meaningful impact and thought leadership.
  • Flexibility, autonomy, and room to grow in a high-visibility role.
