About Morning Consult:
Morning Consult is a global decision intelligence company changing how modern leaders make smarter, faster, better decisions. The company pairs its proprietary high-frequency data with rigorous analysis to better inform decisions on what people think and how they will act.
This role will be based in our Washington, DC office.
The Role:
Morning Consult is looking to hire a highly motivated and collaborative individual to join our Strategy team. In particular, the Strategy Analyst will be responsible for managing the operations for our syndicated brand tracking product (Morning Consult Brand Intelligence) and developing strategic recommendations for opportunities to enhance the offering.
Success in this role will require both an eagerness to create structured processes where they do not already exist as well as the attention to detail to implement those processes effectively. The ideal candidate for this role will be a quick learner who is interested in diving into the weeds on topics critical to the business and driving process improvements.
The Strategy Analyst will have the opportunity to join a growing company in a position to influence and improve one of its key product offerings. As part of the Strategy team, this individual will have the chance to collaborate with nearly every department within the company and drive high-stakes strategic decisions to position Morning Consult for continued growth. Someone who excels in this role will quickly establish themselves as a lynchpin for many aspects of Morning Consult’s day-to-day operations and have significant opportunities for career development.
