Director of Paid Media Creative

W3Global Inc.

Job Description

Job Description

About the job

We're looking for a performance creative leader to own paid creative end-to-end - message, visual, format, and the team that ships it.

About The Role We ship ~200 ads a week today; the 12-month plan is 10K ads a year. The constraint isn't headcount - it's a creative leader who can scale output without losing the bar.

You'll inherit a working team: creative strategist, designer, in-house videographer, producer, and a media buyer who runs channel ops. Your job is to take it from "working" to "category-defining."

This is a player-coach role. including leadership - you'll set creative direction, write briefs alongside the team, and review every concept before it ships.

Key Responsibilities
  • Message & Positioning: Own the angles, hooks, and narrative arcs across every paid placement; build and maintain the message bank by persona and awareness stage; approve every script, headline, and hook before it ships

  • Visual System: Own how we look across Meta, Google, YouTube, and emerging placements; maintain visual consistency at 100+ concepts/month; co-own the brand-performance interface with the Brand Director

  • Team Leadership: Manage creative strategy, statics, and video editing teams; partner with Directors of UGC and Influencer; set the operating cadence (brief Monday, ship Friday)

  • Channel Partnership: Sit next to the media buyer weekly - know how your creative behaves in the bid environment; champion strong creative bets and cut what won't scale

Qualifications

  • Experience:

    • 7+ years in performance creative, with at least 3 leading the function at a DTC brand spending $1M+/month

    • Personally owned creative on a brand that scaled from $20M to $100M+ ARR - references will confirm

    • Hired and grown creative strategists, designers, and editors who outperformed benchmarks

  • Skills:

    • Write briefs, scripts, and headlines at agency-senior level; hands-on across every craft you sign off on

    • Read paid social data fluently - know which ad to scale, kill, or v2

    • Experience in a regulated category (Rx, supplements, finance, alcohol) or proven compliance instincts

  • Mindset:

    • Decisive - ships 5 versions today over perfecting one all week

    • Treats every ad as if your name is on it

About Us:

We are a new health system on a mission to extend and enhance human life.

We started with lab testing, then data aggregation / digital twin, then an AI doctor, and now peptides.

Over the past 6 months, we have grown 10x whilst halving CAC. Now we are gearing up for hyper growth.

Company Philosophies
  • We are all here to genuinely do our life's best work

  • Insanely high talent bar, never settling. A players only (see Steve Jobs)
