About the role
- Act as both strategist and maker. Develop performance-driven creative strategies and concepts rooted in audience insight, platform behavior, and campaign objectives. Ability to then bring those ideas to life through copy and design.
- Design and write with range. Produce strong visual systems and clear, compelling copy, translating strategy into cohesive messaging, headlines, hooks, and calls to action across static and motion formats.
- Own the creative workflow end to end. Lead projects from briefing through delivery, managing timelines, feedback, revisions, and QA. Collaborate with internal teams, freelancers, and external partners as needed, and support creative resourcing to ensure projects stay on track.
- Curate and elevate creative output. Apply a sharp creative point of view, offer thoughtful feedback, and push ideas beyond the first or safest solution. Partner with internal teams to refine work and raise the overall creative bar.
- Guide execution across channels. Ensure creative is designed for performance, adapting concepts across paid and organic placements while maintaining consistency, quality, and intent.
- Stay informed and adaptive. Keep a pulse on platform shifts, emerging formats, and evolving audience behaviors to continuously improve creative effectiveness.
Requirements
- 5–6 years of experience concepting, creating, and producing paid assets, preferably performance-driven social
- Possess expert-level knowledge of design software (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Figma etc.) and other design tools.
- Have an understanding of the production side of design, with a history designing across both digital and print and adjusting designs to fit the unique constraints each ecosystem contains.
- Clear, effective communicator. Able to present creative work with confidence, explain strategic and design decisions, manage client expectations, and keep projects moving with clear timelines and direction.
- Strong design judgment. Demonstrates a refined eye for layout, composition, typography, and motion, and applies that judgment to create high-impact static and animated creative across digital channels.
- Asset production and delegation experience. Experienced in managing creative output at scale — assigning work to freelancers or team members, providing clear direction and feedback, and ensuring all assets meet quality, performance, and delivery standards.
- Strong Design Sensibility. A sharp eye for layout, composition, and movement — with the ability to translate that into high-impact static and motion creative across digital campaigns.
