About the Role

A fast-growing performance marketing agency is looking for a Creative Strategist who can turn insights into ad concepts that actually convert.

This is a fully remote , full-time position for candidates located in the U.S. or Canada, ideal for someone who loves blending creative instincts with performance thinking.

• Write clear, actionable creative briefs for creators, editors, and designers—providing precise direction from hook to CTA
• Review ad performance and creative metrics to identify winning angles, patterns, and next-round opportunities
• Partner with Account Managers to connect creative insights to campaign KPIs and client reporting
• Maintain a high creative bar while ensuring consistent weekly output
• Keep production moving fast without sacrificing clarity or quality

• 1–3 years of experience developing, optimizing, or directing paid social creative (ideally in eCommerce)
• Proven track record of creative that drives measurable results (CTR, CVR, CPA, ROAS, etc.)
• A strong portfolio of paid social creatives, especially UGC-style ads for platforms like TikTok and Meta
• Strong grasp of paid social creative fundamentals: copy, hooks, framing, pacing, structure, and storytelling
• Comfortable working with UGC creators, editors, and designers—and giving clear feedback
• Analytical mindset: you can turn performance data into specific creative next steps
• Excellent communication, organization, and time-management skills

Not required, but nice to have.

• Experience running or supporting creative testing frameworks
• Background in agencies or multi-brand environments
• Familiarity with eCommerce customer psychology and funnel thinking
• Comfort presenting creative learnings to internal or client-facing teams
