  • Long-Term Content Development: Develop sustainable creative concepts and explore new formats, testimonials, creator content, and community insights to support continued growth beyond individual assets or campaigns.

  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with content, performance marketing, and the wider marketing team to align creative decisions with business objectives and deliver consistent results.

Requirements:

You are an experienced creative strategist and leader who combines strong creative judgement with a data-driven approach to performance marketing. You can guide creative teams, make confident approval decisions, and turn insights into scalable content strategies. The ideal candidate will bring:

  • At least five years of experience in creative strategy, art direction, or creative leadership, ideally with a strong focus on performance marketing and paid social creatives.

  • A proven ability to translate performance metrics—including scroll-stop rate, click-through rate, and conversion rate—into creative decisions and scalable concepts.

  • Experience building, implementing, or managing a structured creative testing framework.

  • A strong eye for creative quality and the confidence to make final decisions and approve creative deliverables.

  • Excellent understanding of messaging, copywriting, and audience relevance, in addition to visual design.

  • Experience leading, mentoring, or coordinating creative teams and prioritizing work across multiple brands or projects.

  • Fluent German skills, with the ability to assess, challenge, refine, and approve German-language copy and creative concepts.

  • Very good English skills for internal communication and collaboration.

  • A collaborative mindset and enthusiasm for working closely with content and performance marketing teams.

  • Strong organizational and prioritization skills, with the ability to balance strategic planning and practical execution.

Nice to have:
  • Experience in a startup, scale-up, or multi-brand environment.

  • Background in healthcare, recruitment, or another regulated or trust-based industry.

  • Practical experience with Meta Ads, Google Ads, Asana, and analytics platforms.

  • Experience developing brand kits, tone-of-voice guidelines, and long-term content strategies.

  • Familiarity with user-generated content (UGC), testimonials, creators, and performance-oriented video content.

Benefits:
  • Competitive compensation: The advertised annual compensation range is €65,000–€75,000. The exact arrangement and compensation for a freelance engagement should be confirmed.

  • Flexible engagement: Choose between a freelance collaboration and permanent employment, depending on the agreed arrangement.

  • Flexible workload: Approximately 20–35 hours per week, based on mutual agreement and availability.

  • Remote-first environment: Work fully remotely.

  • Meaningful creative ownership: Take responsibility for the strategic development of three growing brands.

  • An established team: Build on existing creative production capabilities, focusing on strategy, direction, and process improvement rather than starting from scratch.

  • Cross-functional collaboration: Work closely with content, performance marketing, and the wider marketing team.

  • Direct business impact: Build a scalable creative testing system that influences brand development, marketing performance, and growth.
