Job description

We are a Vancouver-based performance marketing agency specializing in paid media, retail media, Amazon, lead generation, and organic social for CPG, DTC, B2B, and retail brands. Our clients hire us for results, and in 2026 creative is the biggest lever we have on Meta and Google. This role is where that creative gets made.

The Opportunity

We are hiring a Paid Media Designer to own the creative that runs across our client accounts. You will work closely with our paid media strategists, turning media plans and client requests into video and image ads that convert, landing pages that close, and competitive insights that shape how we pitch and launch new accounts. You will have real ownership over the creative direction of the brands you touch, with the tools and the room to move fast.

What You'll Do

• Create video and image ads across client accounts as needed, based on client requests and the media plans our strategists put together, keeping volume high and quality consistent
• Set the creative strategy for every ad you build, with a deep, current understanding of what actually moves the needle in 2026 on Meta Ads, Google Ads, and the other platforms we run
• Build landing pages using the latest AI tools, matching the ad to the page so the full click-to-conversion experience holds together
• Run competitive analysis for new client kick-off decks, surfacing the strongest ad angles, hooks, and formats for each specific brand and category
• Stay fluent in the latest image, video, and design tools, including AI generation and editing, and bring new workflows to the team
• Test and iterate: read performance data with the strategists, learn which concepts win, and feed that back into the next round of creative
• Keep brand consistency across accounts while adapting to each client's voice, visual identity, and audience

What You Bring

• 5+ years of experience designing for paid ad campaigns in the DTC space, with a portfolio of static and video ads that drove measurable results
• Deep understanding of creative strategy for performance advertising: hooks, formats, pacing, UGC-style versus polished, and how each platform's placements and audiences change what works
• Hands-on competency in current design and video tools (Figma, Adobe Creative Cloud, CapCut or similar), plus AI image and video generation tools
• Experience building landing pages with AI-first tools such as Lovable, Framer, Webflow, or comparable platformsIs this a typo? It seems incomplete.
• Ability to run competitive and creative research and present it clearly in a deck for a client audience
• Comfort managing multiple accounts and deadlines at once, and communicating directly with strategists and clients when needed

Nice to Have

• Experience in a performance marketing or paid media agency
• Working knowledge of Meta Ads Manager and Google Ads, enough to understand specs, placements, and how creative gets read in reporting
• Motion design or basic editing skills for short-form video
• Background in CPG, retail, or ecommerce brands
