Job description

What’s the Vibe?

Our founders started Creative Force with a single goal in mind: to build industry-leading software with really cool people. As we’ve grown, we’ve stayed true to that vision. Our products usher in a new era of creative operations for some of the world’s largest brands and retailers. And all along the way, hiring great people has remained a critical business priority.

We believe effective collaboration is the skill of the future. As a remote company with staff across the globe, we’re committed to building teams that work well together.

We hire talented people who are great to work with. We don’t always hire the most experienced people. We recruit across a wide range of backgrounds – from former tennis coaches to film students, photographers, hotel front desk workers, freelance travel agents, and fashion designers.

While our backgrounds are diverse, we all share a few important traits:

• We love solving challenging problems.
• We’re passionate about the work we do.
• We are the kind of people who make the morning coffee chat a positive energy source, go the extra mile to support one another, and make work feel a little less like work.

What’s the Role?

We’re looking for a Creative Operations Advisor with a secret weapon: you’ve lived the life our customers live.

Maybe you’ve worked in a creative studio managing production workflows. Maybe you’ve been on a brand team coordinating product photography for seasonal launches. Or perhaps you’ve been the person drowning in spreadsheets trying to track assets across multiple shoots. Whatever your background, you understand the chaos, the pressure, and the very real operational challenges that creative teams face every single day. Now you want to help solve those problems.

This role fits into the Sales team. It isn’t a traditional sales role and we’re not looking for traditional salespeople. We want people from the creative operations world who can build genuine relationships with prospects, have credible conversations about workflow transformation, and guide potential customers toward solutions that really work.

The goal is revenue, but the best Creative Operations Advisors are peers, not vendors – someone who gets it and has lived it.

You will own the full sales cycle, from initial outreach through contract negotiation, partnering with our SDR team on qualified opportunities and collaborating with Customer Success for smooth handoffs. You do this from a position that truly understands what keeps creative operations leaders up at night.

Creative Operations Advisor Self-Assessment

We don’t list three-page skills; instead we highlight the characteristics that make a great Creative Operations Advisor.

• You've Been in the Trenches You worked in creative operations, production studios, or similar environments. You manage photo shoots, coordinate retouching, track assets, or deal with version control challenges.
• You're Ready to Transition from Doing to Enabling You loved working in creative operations but are excited to help multiple teams transform workflows rather than managing workflows yourself. You are comfortable being measured by revenue and relationships rather than production output.
• You're Relationship-Driven, But Commercially Minded You genuinely care about understanding people’s challenges and ask better questions than you pitch. You can discuss pricing, ROI, and business cases, connecting operational pain points to financial outcomes.
• You Have High Emotional Intelligence You read between the lines in prospect conversations, understand enterprise buying politics, and build trust quickly with prospects who appreciate you truly knowing their world.

What we offer YOU

• A fast-growing, exciting, and fun startup environment – multiple Employer Awards, including being ranked top #20 in Forbes “Americas Best Startup Employers” for several years in a row.
• Competitive benefits package – including 4-5 weeks PTO, 6 days paid sick leave, holidays, and healthcare, dental, and vision packages.
• A flat and transparent organizational structure – no bureaucratic red tape. Your ideas and initiatives will be heard and embraced.
• True work-life balance – we value our team members as people, not numbers, and support personal and professional fulfillment.
• A new and expanding team with great opportunities to grow and develop your skills and career.
• A vibrant work culture grounded in the belief that we’re better together.
• Company trips and events, and much more!

Who Isn't This Role For?

If you love being hands-on in production and the thought of stepping away from day-to-day studio operations makes you sad, this probably isn’t the right move.

If you have no interest in the commercial side of things – pricing, contracts, ROI – this may not be suitable, though creative expertise is critical.

We value dynamism. If you prefer a more stable, predictable work environment, you may not thrive here.
