Job Description

Streetsense is seeking a Senior Retail Strategist who can translate data, merchandising strategies, and retail fundamentals into clear, compelling stories that bring our work to life for our clients. This role goes beyond analysis — it requires crafting deliverables that communicate insight, vision, and value in ways that are engaging, evocative, and thought-provoking. While some assignments demand rigor and precision, the best outcomes inspire imagination and help clients see what their places can become. Our canvas is the ground plane and public realm — the connective tissue that unites real estate, experience, and people. The ideal candidate is a passionate student of retail and a storyteller at their core, able to transform market intelligence into narratives that shape memorable, enduring places.

Job Responsibility

  • Craft Transformative Strategies: Develop integrated retail, F&B, amenity, and cultural strategies aligned with client goals—moving beyond standard merchandising to redefine the role of place
  • Consumer & User Insights: Translate consumer behaviors and user profiles into vivid insights that help clients clearly visualize the opportunity
  • Experience Journey Modeling: Illustrate the rhythms, touchpoints, and decision moments that shape how people encounter the environment, identifying opportunities to enhance relevance and performance
  • Place DNA & Market Positioning: Establish the guiding place pillars and storytelling framework that inform design, programming, and long-term brand positioning
  • Market Intelligence & Benchmarking: Identify local, regional, national and global comparables and inspiration, extracting lessons and innovations that can reposition client assets
  • Storytelling & Visualization: Translate complex analysis into compelling narratives—elevated reports, graphics, and presentations that inspire action
  • Data Fluency & Interpretation: Comfort synthesizing multi-source datasets (demographic, psychographic, mobility, and retail performance) into clear, actionable insights that inform merchandising, placemaking, and strategic positioning
  • Spatial Visualization & Mapping: Ability to leverage GIS, trade area mapping, and spatial analysis to visually communicate customer patterns, retail voids, and market opportunities in an intuitive, place-based format
  • Data-Driven Storytelling: Translate complex analytics into compelling visual narratives—using charts, maps, and annotated graphics—to support client presentations, strategy documents, and vision-led deliverables
  • Team Collateral: Contribute to Streetsense’s positioning as an industry leader through developing new business pitches, proposals, RFP responses and marketing materials
  • Collaboration: Partner with colleagues across research, branding, urban planning, and design

Requirements

  • Exceptional ability to communicate vision through narrative, graphics, and presentations, with comfort in front of senior audiences
  • Deep intellectual curiosity, creativity, and the ability to synthesize diverse inputs into actionable strategy
  • Commitment to travel and direct market immersion
  • 5-10 years of experience in design, real estate fields, development, place branding, planning, brokerage, or consulting
  • High proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator)
  • Comfort with Excel and familiarity with GIS and Real Estate data sources

  • Medical Dental & Vision Insurance
  • paid time off
  • 401k match
