- Review creator deliverables through a performance lens before they go live
- Build and maintain a library of winning creative frameworks by creator type, platform, and audience
- Partner with the Growth Manager to analyze creator performance and identify what scales
Cross-Functional Creative Operations

- Work with creative studio to manage production timelines and ensure assets are ready to test
- Work with video editors and designers to iterate quickly on top performers
- Maintain a living creative learnings doc that informs future strategy

- Experience working with UGC creators and/or influencer-led content
- Deep familiarity with Meta and TikTok ad formats, creative best practices, and platform nuances
- Strong written communication - briefs, copy, and internal decks that are clear and sharp
What We’re Looking For
- You think about creative as a performance lever, not just aesthetics
- You can move from insight to brief to live asset quickly
- You’re as comfortable in a spreadsheet as you are in a creative doc
- You have strong opinions about what makes content work - and you back them with data
- You’re a clear communicator and a strong cross-functional partner
