Job Summary

Own the end-to-end creative engine for performance campaigns across Meta and YouTube, driving rapid testing, data-driven iteration, and premium-brand storytelling at scale.

  • High-velocity testing: design and operate a monthly matrix delivering hundreds of ad variations and scalable frameworks that beat fatigue.
  • Long-form and platform-specific scripting: craft engaging YouTube scripts and adapt quickly between Meta-style and YouTube-style creative.
  • Data-informed optimization: translate daily metrics into the next wave of creative and maintain an uninterrupted insight loop.

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • High-volume Meta iteration and testing: Design and run a high-velocity testing matrix producing ~600 ad variations per month. Systematically test hooks, visual styles, body copy and CTAs to combat ad fatigue, identify winning formulas and build frameworks that scale.
  • Long-form YouTube scriptwriting: Write deeply engaging, high-intent scripts of 1–3+ minutes optimised for YouTube's viewer behaviour and attribution style. The discipline is completely different to Meta — you\'ll need to switch between both modes fluently.
  • Rapid data analysis and iteration: Work closely with media buyers to analyse daily and weekly performance metrics — thumb-stop rates, hold rates, CTR. Translate data signals into the next batch of creative without delay. The insight loop never stops.
  • Trend hooking and cultural agility: Monitor Meta, TikTok and internet culture daily. Spot emerging formats and trends before they peak and capitalise on them fast.
  • Whitelisting and creator management: Oversee the creator content pipeline — managing whitelisting permissions and content variations to maximise social proof across paid channels.
  • Creative operations: Maintain the infrastructure that makes high-volume creative possible — templates, naming conventions, asset management and workflows. A Project Manager will support you, but the creative operations framework is yours.

Requirements

  • Proven experience in performance creative, creative strategy or growth-focused copywriting — ideally agency background followed by in-house
  • Demonstrable track record producing high-volume paid social creative with measurable performance outcomes
  • Strong long-form scriptwriting capability — you can write a YouTube script that holds attention for three minutes and converts
  • Analytical fluency — you read performance data and instinctively know what creative change to make next
  • Deep understanding of Meta and YouTube as distinct creative environments
  • High organisational capacity — you can manage a large creative pipeline without dropping quality
  • An instinct for premium, brand-led creative — we\'re not interested in what most DTC brands are doing

Preferred

  • Health-tech, wellness or premium consumer hardware experience strongly preferred
  • An instinct for premium, brand-led creative — we’re not interested in what most DTC brands are doing

Foundation Partners

Foundation Partners is reinventing how ambitious, early-stage companies access People & Talent support.
In the past, founders had two options: try to handle it themselves, which comes with huge opportunity costs compared to focusing on product or GTM, or hire a generalist expected to cover everything from culture, to recruitment, to performance.
We offer a more impactful alternative - a fully flexible fractional People & Talent team with specialist skillsets and hands-on delivery that starts driving impact in weeks, not months.
