2d • $120,400 - $150,500 • Hybrid

About The Position

We're looking for a sharp, versatile Creative Strategist to take the reins on Mando. This isn't a support role. You'll own the creative end-to-end across most of our Mando ad formats: concepting, briefing, creator ops, and final sign-off. You'll be on a team working alongside some of the most talented senior creative minds in the industry, who will be in your corner as a sounding board and partner. The seat is set up so you grow fast, own real outcomes early, and learn from someone exceptional while doing it.

Requirements

• 3 to 5 years of experience in creative strategy, content production, performance marketing, or a related field.
• A track record of owning creative for a brand or product line, not just contributing to it.
• Hands-on experience editing video (Premiere, CapCut, DaVinci Resolve, or similar).
• Solid direct-response or performance advertising chops. You understand what makes an ad convert, not just look good.
• Portfolio or work samples showing creative range. Concepts, scripts, edits, anything that shows how you think and what you make.

Nice To Haves

• Experience running creator operations end-to-end (sourcing, briefing, contracting, whitelisting) is a strong plus.
• Familiarity with AI creative tools (e.g., AdCreative.ai, Midjourney, Runway, or similar) is a strong plus.

Responsibilities

• Own Mando creative across Stills, B-Roll, and Partnership/UGC ads. You lead concepting, briefing, and sign-off. Our senior strategist supports and pressure-tests.
• Partner with our senior strategist on TV spots, supporting on agency selection and co-leading creative review.
• Run all creator operations for Mando partnership and UGC work: sourcing, briefing, contracting, payment, whitelisting, the whole pipeline.
• Develop original ad ideas. Hooks, concepts, scripts. Bring them to the senior strategist for feedback and sharpen from there.
• Recut and remix existing ads quickly to generate high-volume creative iterations. Fast turnarounds are a superpower here.
• Collaborate with video editors to turn existing footage into fresh ad concepts. Brief clearly and review with a strong creative eye.
• Cut and produce ads yourself when needed. You won't always have a dedicated editor and that's okay.
• Pick up new tools fast. AI creative platforms, editing software, growth analytics. Get fluent quickly.
• Stay close to the customer. Watch ads, read comments, study reviews, and use those insights to inform every creative decision.
