About the Company

We are a rapidly scaling direct-to-consumer health and wellness brand operating across major digital advertising platforms.

As the brand continues to grow, leadership is shifting focus from purely technical media buying toward creative-led growth, recognizing that modern paid media performance is driven primarily by creative strategy.

Role Overview

We are hiring a Creative Strategist with Paid Media experience to own the intersection between creative direction and performance marketing.

This is a hybrid role — ideal for someone who started as a media buyer and evolved into a creative thinker who understands:

why ads work
how hooks drive performance
how messaging impacts conversion
how creative testing fuels scalable growth

You will work closely with leadership and creative resources to develop, test, and iterate high-performing ad concepts.

Build structured creative testing roadmaps

Paid Media Collaboration

Collaborate with media buying execution (Meta, TikTok, etc.)
Understand performance metrics and attribution trends
Translate data into actionable creative insights
Support scaling winners and refreshing fatigued creatives

Performance Analysis

Review ad-level data to identify creative trends
Understand why creatives succeed or fail
Optimize messaging for CTR, CPA, and ROAS
Partner with leadership on growth experimentation

Not purely a graphic design role
Not influencer management

This role owns creative strategy that drives paid media performance.

What We Offer

Competitive compensation based on experience
High ownership over creative direction
Ability to directly impact revenue performance
Long-term growth opportunity within a scaling brand
Collaborative and fast-paced remote environment
