Job Summary

Own the link between performance data and creative output, translating insights into testable briefs and guiding UGC scripting and iteration.

  • Define and prioritize a testing roadmap with media buyers
  • Direct brief management and asset library upkeep
  • Track UGC trends and translate into fast-turn creative adaptations

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Performance-to-brief pipeline - Read Meta and Google ad performance data daily. Identify which hooks are fatiguing, which formats are holding attention, and which audiences are saturating. Translate those signals into structured creative briefs: segment, message, hook type, format, reference, and success metric.
  • Creative testing strategy - Build and prioritize a testing roadmap with media buyers. Form specific, falsifiable hypotheses rather than general concepts.
  • Brief management and execution oversight - Brief designers, video editors, copywriters, and UGC creators. Maintain a tagged creative asset library so winning concepts from past sprints can be found and iterated on, not rebuilt from scratch.
  • UGC scripting and trend iteration - Track UGC and short-form trends across TikTok and Instagram on a rolling basis and adapt winning formats to client brands and offers quickly, before they fatigue.This is a core function of the role, not a secondary skill. Candidates without recent, hands-on UGC scripting experience should not apply.
  • Iterate on existing UGC concepts based on performance data: tightening hooks, testing new openers, recutting pacing direction for editors.
  • Write UGC-style scripts that sound like real people talking, not ad copy. You should be able to nail hook, problem, proof, and CTA structure in a 15-30 second format.

Requirements

  • 3+ years in creative strategy, performance marketing, or a closely related role (media buying, copywriting, or brand marketing with a strong performance bent).
  • Demonstrated experience writing structured creative briefs, not mood boards.
  • DTC or e-commerce experience strongly preferred.
  • Luxury or premium brand experience is a differentiator, not a requirement, but you should be able to speak to how creative instincts shift in a higher-consideration purchase environment.
  • Comfortable in a remote, fast-moving agency environment managing multiple client accounts and external creative partners simultaneously.
  • Strong written communication. You'll be working async with a distributed team, so clarity in writing carries real weight.
  • Hands-on UGC scriptwriting experience, ideally with a portfolio or examples of scripts that turned into produced ads.
  • Working fluency in Meta Ads Manager and Google Ads reporting. You should be comfortable reading hook-rate and hold-rate curves, not just total spend and ROAS.

Preferred

  • Familiarity with AI-assisted creative research or tagging tools.
  • Basic working knowledge of Figma, Canva, or Adobe tools, enough to communicate visual direction, not to execute design work yourself.

Benefits

  • Benefits: PTO, paid holidays and flexible Friday's
