Role Description Aperture OS is an internal tool we've built to give us an operational edge. It helps us track performance, manage creative workflows, and surface insights across our client portfolio in ways that off-the-shelf tools don't. Now we want to scale it. We're looking for someone to own it. Not manage it. Own it. You will be the primary engineer and technical decision-maker for Aperture OS. You'll define what it becomes, how it's built, and how it serves the team. You'll work directly with the founder and client teams to understand what's needed and build it — properly. This is a serious ownership opportunity at a fast-moving company that knows what it wants and gives its people room to deliver it.

Role Description We’re hiring a Creative Strategist to help build, lead and scale Aperture’s performance creative engine. This is not a “make pretty ads” role. This role sits at the intersection of: - Performance marketing - Social-native copywriting - User psychology - Creator-led production - AI-native research - Creative testing systems - Funnel and offer strategy - Platform-native growth We’re hiring a Graphic Designer to support and scale our performance creative output. This is not a brand-only or static design role. You’ll be working on ads. A lot of them. Your job is to take creative concepts and turn them into high-performing visuals across paid social, UGC, statics and emerging formats. You’ll work closely with creative strategists, performance teams and creator managers to produce assets that are clear, fast, native to platform and built to convert. This role sits at the intersection of: - Design - Performance marketing - Creative testing - Social-native content - AI-assisted production Creative is now one of the biggest levers in paid acquisition. As targeting becomes more automated, platform signals become more complex, and competition increases, growth teams need stronger creative systems. Meta’s newer delivery systems rely heavily on creative signals, variation and structured testing, meaning creative volume and diversity are becoming central to performance. At the same time, generative AI is changing how creative teams research, concept, produce and iterate. Leading marketing teams are using AI to speed up production, personalise messaging, analyse customer feedback and scale creative experimentation. This role exists to keep Aperture ahead of that shift. You’ll help us build creative systems that are faster, sharper, more human, more automated and more commercially effective. Key Responsibilities - Performance creative design: - Design high-performing assets across: - Paid social statics - Carousels - UGC-style overlays - Ad variations - Landing page visuals - Creator assets - Turn briefs into clear, compelling visuals that drive action. - Understand how design impacts scroll behaviour, clarity and conversion. - Social-native execution: - Design for platform, not just aesthetics. - Understand how creative needs to look and feel across: - TikTok - Meta feeds - Reels - Stories - YouTube Shorts - Create assets that feel native, not over-designed. - Iteration and testing: - Produce multiple variations of the same concept quickly. - Work with creative strategists to: - Test hooks - Test formats - Test layouts - Test messaging - Be comfortable designing fast and iterating based on performance. - Creative systems and velocity: - Maintain high output across multiple accounts. - Work within structured systems for: - Briefing - Production - Versioning - File organisation - Ensure design never bottlenecks testing. - Collaboration: - Work closely with: - Creative strategists (to understand concepts and angles) - Performance teams (to understand what’s working) - Creator managers (to support UGC output) - Take feedback quickly and apply it without friction. - AI-assisted workflows: - Use AI tools to speed up production and iteration. - Support with: - Image generation - Background edits - Asset variations - Rapid prototyping - Stay curious about how AI can improve speed and output. Qualifications - Experience working with creative or performance teams. - Experience with tools like Figma, Adobe Suite or similar. - Comfort working at speed and producing multiple variations. - Experience with motion, video or editing tools is a strong plus. - Understanding of what drives performance (CTR, clarity, hooks, etc). - Understanding of social platforms and how design translates across them. - Experience designing for paid social, performance marketing or digital products. - Strong portfolio of work that shows clear, effective design - ideally in ads, UGC or conversion-focused content. Skills and Mindset - You notice small details others miss. - You are not precious about your work. - You design for clarity, not just aesthetics. - You can take feedback and iterate quickly. - You are fast, organised and detail-oriented. - You understand that the goal is performance. - You care about how things actually perform, not just how they look. - You are comfortable working with messy inputs and turning them into strong outputs. This is not the role for you if - You only want to work on polished brand design. - You are not interested in how your work performs. - You prefer slow, perfect outputs over fast iteration. - You are uncomfortable receiving frequent feedback. - You don’t enjoy working on ads or performance creative. What success looks like in 6 months - Assets feel native to each platform. - Design is supporting testing, not slowing it down. - Winning concepts are being iterated quickly and clearly. - Creative output across accounts is faster and more consistent. - Creative teams can rely on you to execute at speed without sacrificing quality.

Before you apply We read every single application. We ask a few questions as part of the process. This is where we understand how you think. We’re not looking for perfect answers. We’re looking for real ones. Specific examples matter more than polished language. We can tell when something is generic. Take your time. Write from your own experience.
