We value great work with talented, innovative & driven people, making meaningful connections with like-minded creatives along the way!

We’re looking for a Creative Strategist to own creative, data analysis and performance outcomes across client accounts, with a strong bias toward great writing, analytics, measurement, and continuous improvement.

What You’ll Do

  • Run performance-led research; analyze ad platform data, creative performance signals, and competitor patterns to inform strategy.

  • Develop and test high-converting creative concepts grounded in consumer insight, platform mechanics, and historical performance.

  • Build clear creative hypotheses, testing frameworks, and messaging systems; not one-off ideas.

  • Write and guide performance copy that is structured, intentional, and measurable.

  • Partner closely with design, editing, and media buying to ensure creative is built for testing, scale, and learning.

  • Translate quantitative performance data and qualitative feedback into concrete creative decisions and pivots.

  • Mentor junior creatives; sharpening their strategic thinking, analytical instincts, and execution quality.

  • Deep understanding of consumer psychology, platform behavior, and how creative actually drives outcomes.

  • Comfort forming hypotheses, reading results, and making fast, informed creative decisions.

  • Genuine interest in mentoring others and raising the overall quality bar.

  • Curiosity, initiative, and a genuine love for shaping ideas that make people stop and feel something.

Must haves
  • Fluency in written and spoken English is required.

  • Experience developing performance-driven creative for paid social or digital channels.

  • Strong comfort interpreting performance data and using it to guide creative direction and iteration.

  • Experience collaborating cross-functionally in fast-moving, data-creative-focused environments.

Nice to have
