Overview
We’re looking for a dynamic, strategic leader to join Havas Moonfolks Indonesia as Head of Strategy — someone hungry to shape bold ideas, lead high-stakes pitches, and drive measurable impact for some of the region’s most exciting brands.
This is a career-defining opportunity to sit at the heart of our Meaningful Media philosophy — where strategy isn’t just about channels or numbers, but about creating authentic, resonant connections between brands and the people they serve. We believe media can do more than deliver impressions; it can drive culture, shift perceptions, and deliver real business growth.
As part of the Havas Village model, you’ll collaborate across disciplines, including close partnership with our specialist teams :
- Havas Market – where commerce, content, and data collide to drive performance across the full purchase journey.
- Havas Play – our gateway to fandoms, gaming, music, and experience-led media that taps into passion points and cultural moments.
- Havas CSA – our data and decision sciences powerhouse, unlocking precision targeting and predictive insights for every brief.
You’ll also play a pivotal role in championing the continued rollout of Havas Converged , our proprietary, data-integrated operating system that seamlessly unites media, content, and commerce. It’s a rare chance to shape how performance and creativity come together under one powerful, future-facing model — transforming how brands connect, convert, and grow in today’s fragmented landscape.
Lastly, you’ll also work closely with our creative partners at Moonfolks Indonesia , ensuring integrated thinking that fuses brand, media, and culture into every idea we take to market. Strong collaboration and shared ambition across the Village will be key to success in this role.
If you're a strategic leader with a creative soul and commercial fire, ready to make meaningful media experiences, not just media plans, then we’d love to meet you.
