We are a Growth Invention company built to help the world’s most ambitious brands grow faster. Operating at the intersection of technology and marketing, we create what is next by pioneering ideas, acting fast, and moving further because standing still just is not in our DNA.
We are drawn to people who stay curious, move with intent, and never stop inventing. Our culture runs on three values: better together, relentlessly curious, and get sh*t done. It is how we work, how we grow, and how we make things that matter.
At DEPT®, you will find the freedom to explore, the space to collaborate, and the trust to make a real impact for our clients, for each other, and for the world we are helping to build.
As Creative Strategist, you will serve as a key contributor in driving digital advertising performance through strategic creative planning, innovation, testing, and optimization. You’re just as comfortable synthesizing insights into a compelling story as you are juggling multiple project timelines. You feel passionate about analyzing complex data sets to create succinct, actionable creative insights.
You will be responsible for ensuring adherence to brand guidelines and ad platform guidance, while proactively proposing and executing creative tests that help evolve best practices tailored to the brands you work with. You’ll serve as a liaison between Media, Client, and Creative Production teams – building strong rapport through process and documentation to ensure a constant creative feedback loop.
The ideal candidate has 2+ years experience in growth marketing with a specific focus on creative strategy and testing. The candidate should have a proven track record in delivering strategic creative recommendations, loves using data to tell a story, and has a strong understanding of testing methodologies. Direct experience managing Meta/GDN/Amazon/TikTok ad creative is strongly preferred. This individual will report directly to DEPT’s Associate Director of Creative Strategy.
You will need to be quick on your feet, able to adapt to an ever changing, fast-paced, growing environment, and handle critical tasks that enable growth for our clients.
You are a highly organized and proactive thinker who thrives at the intersection of creative strategy, performance marketing, and cross-functional collaboration. In this role, you’ll act as the connective tissue between paid media, design, and strategy—owning creative testing and insights while driving clear, actionable recommendations grounded in data. You’re fluent in performance channels, particularly paid social, and ideally have experience in eCommerce or DTC environments.
This role requires someone who can manage complex projects with grace, deliver under tight deadlines, and communicate with clarity and speed. Agency experience or similar fast-paced environments is a strong plus.
