Job Description

The Senior Director of Performance Creative Strategy is responsible for defining and evolving the creative direction that drives revenue growth.

This role sits at the intersection of:

  • Performance marketing
  • Audience psychology
  • Creative operations

You will architect the creative system that fuels paid media, creator partnerships, retail campaigns, and product launches, while being responsible for paid media performance.

This is not a production role. This is a thinking role with commercial accountability.

Core Responsibilities

1. Define Creative Direction

  • Establish and evolve the creative north star across all paid platforms 
  • Define energy, tone, pacing, and visual guardrails
  • Translate data into ICP insights, and ICP insights into creative frameworks.
  • Work from data to retention and everything in between.

You will answer:

  • What is our arousal band?
  • What converts without eroding trust?
  • What feels undeniably Everyday Dose?

2. Lead Performance Creative Strategy

  • Develop testing hypotheses and creative roadmaps
  • Partner with growth to analyze performance data
  • Build segmented creative lanes (e.g., relief vs focus vs protein)
  • Ensure creative optimizes for:

    • Hook rate
    • Retention
    • CVR
    • CPA

You will drive:

  • Iteration velocity
  • Learning loops
  • Scalable creative systems

3. Creator & UGC Alignment

  • Define creator content briefs and creative frameworks
  • Ensure creator output aligns with performance creative strategy
  • Build repeatable content formats
  • Oversee content acquisition strategy

4. Team Leadership

  • Hire, lead and mentor creative strategists and performance editors
  • Elevate creative thinking across the organization
  • Foster a culture of high standards + rapid iteration
  • Push for excellence without ego

5. Cross-Functional Partnership

  • Align with product on launches and positioning
  • Support DTC and retail creative needs
  • Translate customer insights into messaging
  • Partner with CX to mine qualitative feedback
  • Cross platform performance creative

What This Role Is Not

  • Not a pure art director
  • Not a production manager
  • Not a brand-only storyteller
  • Not a media buyer

What Success Looks Like (90 days)

  • Clear creative identity across channels
  • Scalable creative testing infrastructure
  • Improved blended CAC driven by creative efficiency
  • Higher-performing segmented campaigns
  • Stronger creative alignment across paid
  • A team that thinks strategically, not reactively
