Launch Potato's performance creative runs on briefs. Every asset the Creative Design team produces starts with a brief that specifies the persona, hook rationale, format, platform context, CTA, and the performance hypothesis being tested. The Creative Strategist is the person who writes those briefs and owns the full upstream strategy behind them.

You determine what gets made, who it's for, and why it should win, and you communicate it with enough precision that nothing is lost between strategy and execution. LP operates a centralized hub-and-spoke creative model: this role feeds the hub with concepts and performance intelligence while media buyers test at speed across verticals. Your job is to make sure everything entering that hub is grounded in real audience understanding, not intuition alone.

What You'll Bring

5+ years experience with direct response creative strategy ownership and performance media buying

You know what a strong hook looks like, why persona targeting matters, and what makes someone stop scrolling

Demonstrated experience writing production-ready briefs that creative teams execute without revision rounds

Performance data fluency: you can read results, identify what's driving them, and translate findings into creative direction

Experience managing UGC creators from sourcing through delivery

Ability to work across multiple verticals and formats simultaneously without losing strategic focus

Strong copywriting ability (scripts, hooks, headlines, ad copy) meaningfully accelerates the briefing process and is a differentiator for this role

Experience leveraging AI tools like Claude or AI Asset Production tools to drive creative strategy farther

What You'll Own

Brief Writing and Concept Development

Own the end-to-end briefing process for all creative entering production: static, short-form video, long-form DR, display, YouTube, and emerging formats

Maintain a rolling content backlog with 4+ weeks of net-new concepts brief-ready at all times

Hit monthly throughput targets for net-new concepts across LP's full vertical portfolio

Own the net-new vs. iteration balance: enough new concepts to maximize testing cadence, enough iteration direction to fully exploit proven winners

Proactively identify untested formats and underserved verticals and bring them into the testing queue

Performance Intelligence and Playbook

Analyze creative performance data with the paid media team to identify winners, flag fatigue, and determine what to test next

Translate performance findings into new briefs and updated creative direction, not just observations

Maintain LP's creative playbook: document winning formulas by persona, vertical, and format so every team starts from accumulated learning, not from zero

Lead competitive creative research on a regular cadence: study what formats, hooks, and approaches are winning in LP's verticals and flag emerging opportunities before they're mainstream

Drive cross-vertical learning: when something wins in one vertical, identify where it can be adapted and brief it for others

UGC Creator and Talent Management

Own LP's UGC creator pipeline end-to-end: sourcing, vetting, contracting, briefing, and performance review

Maintain the Airtable UGC creator dashboard as the single source of truth: creator profiles, availability, past performance, brief status, and video review status

Write creator briefs specific enough to reduce revision cycles and increase the odds of a usable first delivery

Build and manage creator relationships across LP's full vertical portfolio, not just the highest-volume categories

Traits of Success

Precise communicator: nothing gets lost between strategy and execution

Translates data into action, not just observation

Systems thinker who builds playbooks and infrastructure that compound over time

Manages multiple verticals and formats simultaneously without losing strategic focus

Creative intuition grounded in performance logic, not personal taste

Who Won't Succeed Here

Relies on gut over data to generate creative direction

Writes briefs that require rounds of revision before production can move

Can't independently manage creator relationships from sourcing through delivery

Thinks in one brand or format rather than the full portfolio

Treats performance analysis as a reporting exercise rather than a creative input
