Job description

We’re looking for a Creative Lead to own the look, feel and performance of the Meta ad creative we produce for our clients. This is a hands‑on role for a designer who leads from the front: someone who can sit with a client, understand what they’re trying to say, and turn it into scroll‑stopping static and video ads that actually convert. This is a remote role, and we’re open to both full‑time and freelance arrangements. Candidates must be based in the UAE, as there may be occasional in‑person client meetings.

You’ll work closely with our founders, taking on a large share of the briefs and design work currently on our plates. You’ll be trusted with real ownership from day one. If you’re the kind of person who spots what a campaign needs before anyone asks, you’ll fit right in.

Key responsibilities:

  • Concept, design and deliver high-quality static and video ads for Meta (Facebook and Instagram) across feed, Stories and Reels formats
  • Lead creative conversations with clients: run kickoff calls, understand their brand and goals, and present ideas with confidence
  • Build mood boards, vision boards and style frames to align on creative direction before production
  • Turn briefs into multiple ad concepts, hooks and variations ready for testing
  • Use performance data to refine creative and make better ads in each round
  • Manage a high volume of briefs across different clients and industries while keeping quality consistent
  • Maintain brand consistency for each client while keeping creative fresh
  • Bring new ideas, trends and formats to the team without being asked

Working hours: Full time, Hybrid (mostly remote), with availability during UAE business hours for calls and collaboration.

Skills

  • 4+ years of experience in graphic design, motion or creative direction, ideally in an agency or paid social environment
  • A strong portfolio of social ad creative, including both statics and short‑form video
  • Expert in Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere Pro, After Effects) and/or Figma; CapCut or similar is a plus
  • Solid understanding of Meta ads: formats, specs, hooks, and what makes creative perform
  • Confident communicating with clients and presenting creative ideas
  • Experience working with a range of clients across different industries and brand styles
  • Able to manage multiple projects and deadlines without dropping quality
  • Self‑starter with strong initiative and a proactive attitude
  • Comfortable taking feedback and iterating quickly
  • Currently based in the UAE (required); available for in‑person meetings in Dubai
  • Bonus: experience with UGC‑style content, AI creative tools, or basic copywriting for ads
