Responsibilities

• AI-Powered Marketing Production: Build and run Bankrate’s marketing production pipeline — the tooling and workflows that turn a single concept into a library of on-brand, channel-native variants ready to test — freeing your team to spend their time on judgment calls instead of repetitive production.
• Rapid Testing → Revenue: Use that volume to test relentlessly across every channel, let data (not opinion) pick winners, and tie creative output directly to pipeline and revenue. Speed of learning is the point.
• Taste & the Creative Standard: Own what "great" looks like across paid, lifecycle, organic social, and brand — and hold that bar whether an asset was made by a person or a model. Your judgment is the quality gate on everything the pod and self-serve tools produce.
• Cross-Functional Partnership: Be the connective tissue between the Head of Design, Head of Performance Marketing, Director of Brand, and Product Marketing Lead.
• Team & Vendor Building: As the case for each hire comes together, build a small team with that same judgment and manage the freelancers or agencies that flex capacity in the meantime — all powered by the AI systems you stand up

Requirements

• AI-native, human-led: You’re an expert with modern AI creative and copy tools — building repeatable workflows, not one-off prompts — and you have a point of view on where the tooling is headed. But that fluency is leverage, not the job: human judgment is still what makes the work good.
• Strategic discernment & good judgment: Given ten versions of the same ad, you know immediately which one’s worth testing — and can explain why in terms your team can act on. That judgment holds across formats and disciplines: a scroll-stopping performance ad, a copy line that needs one more edit, a data claim that has to be airtight before it ships, or a polished video.
• Team builder: You’ve hired, coached, and gotten the best out of creative talent — and you know how to build a small, judgment-led team that does more because of the AI systems around it, not despite them.
• Art direction + copywriting range: Primary strength in either art direction or copywriting, with genuine working fluency in the other — you can direct or execute across both without needing someone else to translate.
• Revenue + brand fluency: You speak performance marketing — paid, lifecycle, organic, brand — and you’re comfortable pulling data, briefs, and campaign plans into one coherent creative direction that moves revenue while protecting the brand.
• Velocity mindset: You default to ship, test, and learn — trusting a few strong variants and real performance data to find the winner faster than solo second-guessing ever could. For you, iteration is how craft gets sharper, not a shortcut around it.
• Strong communicator: You can walk stakeholders through creative rationale, take feedback without getting precious about it, and know when to push back on a brief versus when to execute it as given.
