- Partner with our Executive Creative Director, Creative Operations Lead, and Head of Performance Marketing to set seasonal marketing goals and advise on planning, organizing and creative resource management to achieve those goals.

**What we're looking for**
- Extensive proven agency and/or client-side consumer marketing experience, as a creative leader who has successfully delivered growth results across digital channels
- Experience working on performance campaigns for direct-to-consumer brands at scale, delivering high volume and global production efforts

- Excellent design craft and copywriting skills, and a portfolio that shows experience with Performance Creative
- Excellent verbal and visual communication skills, allowing you to communicate complex information simply and clearly
- You’ve led creative teams and know what it takes to inspire and grow them
- You thrive in a fast paced, entrepreneurial environment that requires the ability to problem solve, drive chaos to clarity, and maintain personal resilience
- You’re an energy giver with a positive outlook. A natural empathetic teammate, with a consistent track record of cross-functional leadership and partnership
