Excellent communication, organization, and project-management skills.
Experience working directly with creators or influencers is preferred.
Comfort appearing on camera and recording voiceovers is strongly preferred.
Experience using AI tools to support and streamline creative production.
A portfolio demonstrating both creative strategy and execution is required; LinkedIn profiles alone will not be accepted.

Responsibilities

Collaborate with the Creative, Content, and Growth Marketing teams to develop high‑performing creative for social and native ad placements.
Analyze ad‑level performance, document learnings, and translate insights into new concepts, messaging angles, hooks, formats, and visual approaches.
Maintain a backlog of testable concepts and pitch new ideas during weekly Creative Team meetings.
Stay informed about emerging social media, advertising, creator, and design trends and apply relevant insights to client campaigns.
Write briefs, scripts, hooks, messaging angles, and shot lists for creator‑led, UGC, and internally produced content.
Create and edit paid media assets, including short‑form video, on‑camera content, voiceovers, product demonstrations, lifestyle footage, photography, and static graphics.
Source and manage creators, communicate campaign requirements, review submissions, and oversee feedback and revisions through final delivery.
Ensure all content feels authentic, aligns with client brand identities, and meets platform and performance requirements.
Contribute original content to GeistM’s internal UGC and photography library.
