DIGITAL MEDIA CREATIVE STRATEGIST in City of London

Nest Commerce is one of the UK’s fastest-growing performance marketing agencies, built for ecommerce and retail brands. We partner with category-leading names such as Urban Outfitters, Reiss, Damson Madder, Crew Clothing and Hims, helping them scale sustainably through cutting-edge performance strategy and proprietary technology. Our in-house AI platform, Hummingbird, gives us an unmatched competitive edge by automating optimisation, generating creative at scale, and empowering our teams to deliver market-leading results. We’re founder-led, independent, and fiercely ambitious, with a culture that blends commercial impact with genuine care for our people.

We’re now looking for an ambitious Paid Media Creative Strategist to join Nest Studio, our in-house creative function. In this role, you will play a central part in shaping best-in-class paid media creative for some of the UK’s most exciting digital brands.

You will:

• Design and lead strategic workshops with senior client stakeholders, uncovering insight and setting the creative direction.
• Partner with clients to implement best-in-class creative processes across paid social and broader digital channels.
• Develop high-performing, platform-native ad concepts for Meta, TikTok, Google and Snap.
• Write clear, compelling briefs for content creators and internal teams.
• Build scalable testing frameworks that continually refine creative output.
• Analyse performance data, heatmaps and platform insights to optimise creative strategies.
• Act as the main creative contact for client communication, relationship management and presentations.

We’re looking for someone who thrives in a fast-paced performance environment and brings experience in paid media creative. You should be a digital-native thinker with a portfolio that showcases Meta and TikTok-led work, and someone who understands paid-media best practice, trends, formats and platform nuances.

You’ll need to be comfortable using on- and off-platform metrics as signals to guide creative decisions, and confident in communicating, presenting and collaborating with a positive, solutions-focused mindset. You should have a track record of developing performance-driven creative ideas that are native to Meta, TikTok and paid social channels, as well as experience turning data, analytics and testing insights into clear and actionable creative direction.

You should be able to combine strategic thinking with hands-on execution, from persona development and audits through to briefing, testing and optimisation.
