• Produce short-form videos, motion graphics, static advertisements, and supporting assets while maintaining high standards of design and visual storytelling
• Partner with Growth Marketing to evaluate campaign results, identify creative trends and opportunities, and apply performance insights to future concepts
• Develop creative testing plans and maintain a consistent pipeline of concepts, hooks, and variations across paid channels (Meta, TikTok, YouTube) without sacrificing quality
• Explore emerging creative technologies and AI-assisted workflows to improve production efficiency and expand creative possibilities
• Mentor creative team members, provide actionable feedback, and collaborate with Marketing leadership to elevate creative quality and maintain production momentum

• Experience mentoring creative professionals and presenting creative concepts to senior stakeholders
• Bachelor's degree in Graphic Design, Fine Arts, Marketing, Advertising, or a related field, or equivalent work experience

What will help you succeed:
