• Manage content strategy across the creator program, including feedback loops, performance optimization, hooks, and overall content direction.
• Oversee workflow across sourcing, onboarding, and activation of creators.
• Lead and oversee a team of 6 junior marketing specialists and interns, ensuring alignment with program goals and consistent execution.
• Build effective systems to help the creator program scale in a structured way.
• Identify bottlenecks in the process and continuously improve workflows over time.

• Directly manage a portfolio of creators across different markets.
• Guide creators on content direction, hooks, formats, and execution quality.
• Track creator performance closely and identify what is working and what is not.
• Support underperforming creators with clear feedback and improvement direction, and make replacement decisions when needed.
• Ensure consistent content output and stronger performance across the creator base.

Content Strategy & Growth

• Work closely with content templates, examples, and performance data to improve output quality.
• Help shape content strategy based on platform performance, audience response, and conversion signals.
• Spot winning patterns, double down on successful content directions, and turn learnings into repeatable playbooks.

Requirements
