Creative Strategist & Operations Manager

Here's a clean version ready to paste into Indeed — formatted for their basic editor: Phocal Productions is a digital marketing agency specializing in D2C ecommerce brands. We run two core services: performance media buying (Meta Ads) and end\-to\-end creative production including video ads and UGC content. We work with high\-spend ecom brands and are growing fast. **This is a right\-hand hire for the founder.** You'll own both performance reporting and the full creative production pipeline — looking at what's working in the ads, figuring out why, turning that into briefs, and making sure everything gets made on time at a high standard. This is not a big company. There's no chain of command to wait on. You take initiative, solve problems before they become problems, and bring solutions — not questions. **What You'll Own** * Pull weekly Meta Ads data across 10\+ client accounts, identify what's working and why, and deliver clear performance reports to clients * Write creative briefs for our UGC creator network based on data insights and market research * Manage the full production pipeline: brief → creator → editor → QC → delivery * Vet and onboard new creators to our network * Keep editors assigned, on task, and accountable to monthly deliverables * Own the monthly creative calendar across all clients — nothing falls through the cracks **Who You Are** * 2–4 years experience in DTC, ecommerce, or performance marketing * Hands\-on with Meta Ads Manager — you read the data, not just pull a report * Experience writing creative briefs for UGC or video content * Strong project manager — you track everything and miss nothing * Experience managing external collaborators (creators, editors, freelancers) * Self\-starter who owns their work without being told what to do * Comfortable working fully remote and async **Compensation** * Base: $60,000 * Performance bonus: up to $15,000/year, paid quarterly, tied to client ad spend growth **To Apply** Email phocal@phocalproductions.com with your resume, a quick note on why you're the right fit, and 1–2 examples of reports or briefs you've created.
