Junior Strategist Apprentice - F/M

HAVAS FWDMEDIA, who are we?
We believe in the power of brands. In the luxury sector, this power evolves with culture and, at best, should stay ahead of it, creating new rituals, new aesthetics, and new forms of desire.
Yet true iconic status relies on what endures: heritage, authenticity, and timelessness, rather than constant change.

This is where our work begins: preserving what matters while accelerating what comes next.

To bring this vision to life, we adopt a holistic approach: everything is connected, and systems take precedence over silos. We decode global signals to build a comprehensive media strategy, powered by data and platforms that make activation and measurement smoother, more precise, and more responsive. Once these foundations are in place, imagination can take over and forge the media connections where desire begins.

When rigor meets boldness, whether in craftsmanship or in media, anything becomes possible.

We are looking for a Junior Strategist Apprentice to join our Strategy team starting September 2026.

Your future challenges?
Within the Global Strategy Department and reporting directly to a Strategy director, your main responsibilities will include:

• Contribution to research and analysis of trends (market, consumers, culture, media, social).

• Participation in the preparation of presentations (analyses, benchmarks, recommendations).

• Support in the production of content (strategic documents, thought leaderships, trends reports).

• Work hand in hand with the strategy and account team. 

• Competitive and sector monitoring (Luxury, Fashion, Beauty, Hospitality, Wines & Spirits).

• Support to teams in project management and follow up with all local markets.

Your profile?

• Student enrolled in a business school, communication or marketing program.

• Previous experience in Strategy, media agency or luxury required.

• Strong interest in the luxury, media and culture sectors.

• As our Head of Strategy does not speak French, fluent English is required (spoken and written); a good level of French is expected.

• Curiosity, rigor and strong analytical skills.

• Strong working knowledge of PowerPoint and Excel (familiarity with platforms such as Adscope or GWI is a plus).

• Ability to analyze, synthesize and structure information with a creative and curious mindset.
