THE COMPANY

• We scale eCommerce brands from six and seven figures to $10M+ in annual revenue.

• You’ll be pushed to be one of the best at what you do, with great incentives, bonuses, flexible hours, and the freedom to work in a high-performing team.
• We offer very competitive salaries and performance bonuses that exceed industry averages.
• With freedom comes responsibility—opportunities to grow fast, work with elite talent, and take ownership of your work.

• You’ll work with 4-6 clients, owning creative direction and aligning ads with performance goals.
• You thrive in a fast-paced environment and enjoy working across industries and brand voices.
• You collaborate, brief, analyze, and iterate with designers, editors, copywriters, and media buyers.

• Create and manage creative briefs, analyze ads, and generate reports using tools like Notion and Motion.
• Work directly with clients during strategy sessions and feedback to refine and evolve concepts.
• Use Meta Ads Manager and reporting tools to track performance and explore testing ideas.
• Maintain a backlog of creative angles, hooks, and variations for scaling.
• Provide regular reports and growth updates to identify patterns and opportunities.
• Communicate via Slack, manage pipelines in Notion, and ensure smooth workflow.
• Proactively bring new ideas—test, iterate, and scale successful strategies.

WHAT YOU'LL BRING

• Proven experience as a Creative Strategist or similar in paid media or growth agency.
• Strong understanding of Meta Ads (especially DTC eCommerce); TikTok, YouTube, or other platforms are a bonus.
• Ability to analyze ad data and translate it into high-converting creative concepts.
• A creative mind with strong copywriting, storytelling, and attention to detail.
• Experience working with and directing editors, designers, and copywriters.
• Fluency in English (spoken and written) and confidence in client calls and presentations.
• Highly organized, familiar with Slack, Notion, Motion, and Meta Ads Manager.
• Ability to thrive in a fast-moving, feedback-driven environment without micromanagement.

WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOU

• Earn what you’re worth—very competitive base salary plus performance bonuses that reward impact.
• Level up fast—work with elite talent, push creative limits, and grow weekly.
• Creative ownership—bring ideas, lead your work, and shape strategy.
