About Us

We Are - https://youtu.be/qnGZPcqK_H4

We sit at the intersection of creators and performance marketing. We don't just do "influencer marketing"-we build data-driven, direct-response creative engines for brands. We turn UGC (User Generated Content) into high-performing ads for TikTok, Meta, Snap, and YouTube Shorts.

The Role

We are looking for a Creative Strategist who lives and breathes short-form video. You are the bridge between Data (what works in ads) and Creativity (how to tell a story).

You will manage the creative strategy for global D2C brands, apps and more, turning their marketing goals into "scroll-stopping" video concepts. You will work within our "ecosystem," collaborating daily with four key groups:

1. The Brands (Client Strategy)
  • Lead Kickoff Sessions to extract goals, pain points, and brand voice.
  • Consult brands on "Direct Response" principles.
  • Manage expectations with clear ETAs and transparency.
2. The Creators (Talent Direction)
  • Bridge the gap between a corporate brief and authentic creator content.
  • Source the right faces for the video production.
  • Ensure briefs are clear so creators can deliver raw files without endless back-and-forth.
3. The Editors (Post-Production)
  • Collaborate with the post-production video editing team on each production you manage.
  • Provide specific feedback on Hooks, Pacing, Music, and Aspect Ratios.
4. The Internal Team (Sales & Product)
  • Support the Sales team on demo calls by showcasing creative expertise.
  • Feed insights back to Product to improve our platform, reporting bugs and workflow suggestions.


What You'll Do Daily
  • Ideation & Scripting: Use AI tools (ChatGPT, Gemini.) and your own creativity to write scripts that hook viewers in the first 3 seconds.
  • Performance Analysis: Obsessively monitor ad performance using tools like TikTok Top Ads and Facebook Ads Library. Conduct "post-mortems" on campaigns to understand why an ad worked (or didn't).
  • Quality Control: Ensure every piece of content meets our high standards before it reaches the client.


Requirements
Requirements
  • Experience: 2+ years in Creative Strategy, Social Media Management, or Performance Marketing. Experience in an agency environment is a massive plus.
  • Language: Native-level English (Written and Spoken) is non-negotiable. You will be communicating with global clients daily.
  • Highly Organized: You thrive in a fast-paced environment, know how to prioritize, manage multiple moving parts, and keep processes structured and efficient.
  • Platform Mastery: Deep understanding of TikTok, IG Reels/Stories, and Shorts ads ecosystems.
  • Data-Driven: You don't just "feel" what's right; you look at the data (CTR, ROAS, CPA) to back up your decisions.
  • Tech Savvy: You embrace AI. You use tools like ChatGPT, Grammarly, and Midjourney to speed up your workflow, not replace it.

Self-Starter: You are proactive. You don't get blocked; you find a solution.
