A fast-growing curated commerce brand is looking for a Creative Strategist to own paid social creative and drive growth for a newly launched proposition within the business. The business connects a large, engaged global community with premium, accessibly priced products through a small number of trusted collaborators. Having launched just months ago, they've built strong early momentum through organic channels, and are now ready to build a scalable, testing-led paid engine to match.
This is a hybrid role sitting between performance and creative, and between strategy and hands-on delivery. You'll own paid social end-to-end, build a structured creative testing framework, and work closely with an in-house creative team and external partners to bring campaigns to life. If you love blending data-driven thinking with strong creative instincts, and want genuine ownership in shaping a brand-new proposition from the ground up, this is a brilliant opportunity.
Key Responsibilities- Own paid social creative strategy end-to-end (primarily Meta, with appetite to explore TikTok)
- Build and run a structured creative testing framework across concepts, hooks, formats and variants
- Use performance data (CAC, spend distribution, creative insights) to inform what gets tested next
- Brief in-house creative teams and oversee simple content production where needed
- Manage end-to-end campaign delivery for regular product launches, coordinating timelines and assets
- Think creatively about how external partner channels can be activated to support growth
- Produce simple assets yourself where it's quicker to do so than brief out
- Work closely with senior stakeholders to shape strategy for a brand-new proposition
- Around 3-6 years' experience in performance marketing or creative strategy, ideally within D2C e-commerce
- Strong working knowledge of Meta paid social; TikTok experience a bonus
- Proven ability to build and run structured creative testing frameworks
- Confident briefing writers, editors and art directors with clear creative direction
- Comfortable with numbers and platform mechanics as well as creative thinking
- A self-starter who can operate autonomously without heavy hand-holding
- Join an exciting, newly launched brand backed by an established and successful wider business
- Take true ownership of paid social strategy and creative testing from an early stage
- Work directly with senior leadership in a highly collaborative environment
- Strong scope for progression as the brand scales
- Generous equity, private healthcare, enhanced parental leave, £1,000 annual L&D budget and more
