Head of Media / Creative Director - Performance Ads

Apply Now
THE WORK You'll own the creative engine behind a $50M ARR AI-education business running ads across 3 active funnels (more launching). Your team already produces ~100 ads per week - 5 editors plus a lead, plus 4 AI ad creators. Your job is to keep that machine running at quality, feed it constant new ideas, and build the systems that let it scale as funnel count grows. This is NOT a performance-marketing-strategist role. Our CMO and Head of Marketing own FB-side testing, kill decisions, and media buying. You own: • Hitting editing and production deadlines with zero quality errors • Generating new creative ideas, angles, hooks, and concepts weekly • Managing the editor team + AI ad creation specialists • Coordinating script approval with our incoming direct-response copywriter • Evolving the ticketing and brief-to-ship workflow as we scale If you want to own CAC, this is not your role. If you want to own a creative machine that ships 100+ ads a week across a high-ticket offer suite, keep reading. Requirements HOW WE WORK • Volume + iteration > one "perfect" ad • Direct-response cadence: script-to-live measured in days, not weeks • Deadlines are sacred. Quality is non-negotiable. • Small senior team. Direct line to founders. Zero bureaucracy. THE STATE YOU'RE INHERITING • Team: 1 Lead Editor + 4 editors (India-based) + 4 AI ad creators • Output: ~100 ads per week across 3 active offers • Workflow: board-based ticket system; 3-ads-per-editor-per-day KPI • Tools: internal brief/ticketing system, Meta Ads Manager integration • Stack you'll be coordinating with: internal AI ads-creation tooling + standard editing stack (Premiere, CapCut, After Effects) WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR Must-have: • 3+ years owning ad creative in performance marketing (Meta / Facebook ads non-negotiable) • You've personally managed 3+ video editors, ideally including remote/offshore teams • You've run an ad-production pipeline at 50+ ads per week in at least one role, and can walk us through the exact workflow • You've shipped ads for info-product, coaching, bootcamp, trading, agency-services, or high-return DTC - categories with structural refund/chargeback pressure Strong signals: • You have a hook library. You generate angles weekly. Competitor-ad research is a daily habit, not a quarterly project. • Winning ads you produced are findable in FB Ad Library, case studies, or a public portfolio • You've worked in-house at a known DTC/performance shop (Ridge, Obvi, Mid-Day Squares, Native, similar) OR at a high-ticket info-product/coaching brand • You ship reliably. People who've worked with you describe you as "the one who hits deadlines" before they describe your taste. • You've built brief templates, QA gates, or ticketing systems in a prior role We're not the right fit for: • TV, film, or brand-campaign backgrounds - the cadence doesn't translate, we've seen it fail • Creatives who prioritize aesthetic perfection over throughput and direct-response instinct • Pure individual contributors with no team-management experience • Anyone who hasn't worked hands-on with live paid Meta ads Benefits COMP & BENEFITS • $150K - $200K total comp (base + performance bonus, geography-adjusted) • Performance bonus tied to team throughput, quality, and deadline hit-rate - NOT to FB ad performance (that's our CMO's seat) • 100% remote, async-friendly hours (overlap with UK/US East is a plus) • Direct access to founders and CMO. Real budget. Real scope. APPLY Short application. Attach (or link): • 3 winning ads you produced in the last 12 months. Screenshots, FB Ad Library links, or Loom walkthroughs all work. • 2-3 sentences on the ad-production workflow you ran at your last role: ads/week, team size, tool stack. No cover letter. No resume screening theater. If you look like a fit, you'll do a 30-min call with our Head of Marketing within a week, and a short paid assessment after that. Apply tot his job Apply To this Job
