Posted yesterday

Worldwide

Summary

Role: Creative Strategist Location: Remote Type: Full-Time Compensation: $3,000–$5,000 USD/month + performance-based bonuses We're a fast-growing DTC e-commerce brand currently doing 6 figures/month, and we're looking for a Creative Strategist to help us scale to 7 figures/month. This isn't a role where we want you to simply pump out variations of existing winners. We need someone who can both scale what's already working AND aggressively find the next breakthrough. What You'll Own - Customer, competitor, and market research - Finding new customer avatars, angles, desires, and pain points - Developing 15+ new ad concepts per week - Writing hooks, scripts, copy, and creative briefs - Briefing video editors, designers, and UGC creators - Analysing creative performance in Meta Ads Manager - Understanding why creatives win or lose - Aggressively iterating on winners - Continuously testing new concepts, avatars, messaging, and formats - Turning performance learnings into the next round of creative tests We're looking for someone who doesn't wait for us to tell them what to test. You should be bringing new ideas to us. Who We're Looking For: You have previous experience with DTC/e-commerce performance creative and understand direct-response marketing. Must have $100K+ spend on a SINGLE ad — proof required. You should: - Have a strong direct-response copywriting foundation - Understand Meta creative strategy and performance - Think in angles and concepts, not just individual ads - Know how to analyse creative data and turn it into actionable tests - Have experience briefing editors/designers/UGC creators - Understand customer avatars, awareness levels, desires, pain points, and messaging - Move fast and be comfortable testing aggressively - Be proactive, curious, and obsessed with finding winners Most importantly, we're looking for someone hungry. If you find a winner, we want you thinking about how to scale it. If we've been relying on the same concepts for too long, we want you searching for the next avatar, angle, or concept that unlocks another level of growth. The Opportunity: We're already doing 6 figures/month from one product. The mission is to help us reach 7 figures/month. As the brand grows, your compensation grows with it. Compensation: $3,000–$5,000 USD/month base, depending on experience. Plus performance-based bonuses tied to winning creatives. If you help us take this brand to the next level, you'll be rewarded handsomely. How To Apply Please include: - Your portfolio - 2–3 of your best-performing ads (must have at least $100k + spend) - Why you're better than everyone else applying. Requirement: Include a Loom introducing yourself and why we should hire you. Show us your best winning creatives and how they performed. We're not looking for someone who just wants another remote marketing job. We're looking for someone who wants to help build the creative engine that takes this brand from 6 to 7 figures/month. We have the product, budget, team, and infrastructure. Now we need someone who's ready and serious. If this sounds like you, comment "READY" on your application so we know you're for the challenge.
