Creative Strategist
Creative Strategist in London: own a high-velocity, data-driven creative engine for Meta and YouTube; craft hooks, scripts, and scale impact for a fast-growing health brand.
Performance Creative Strategist London · Hybrid · Full-time
This isn't a traditional creative role.
We're a fast-growing, award-winning sustainable consumer health brand with 300,000+ customers across the UK, Europe and the US. We're building a dedicated ads team and we need someone who thinks differently about creative.
At the volume we operate, great creative isn't about starting from scratch every time. It's about engineering 10 core concepts into 60 modular variations — switching the hook, testing the CTA, iterating the visual — and moving fast on what the data tells you. If you see 600 Meta ad iterations a month as 600 separate creative projects, this role isn't for you. If you see it as a systematic creative engine, read on.
The role
You'll own our paid creative engine end to end — driving rapid generation and testing of Meta ad iterations at scale, while also writing the long-form, narrative-driven scripts that convert on YouTube. Two very different creative modes. Both essential.
What you'll own
High-volume Meta iteration and testing Design and run a high-velocity testing matrix producing ~600 ad variations per month. Systematically test hooks, visual styles, body copy and CTAs to combat ad fatigue, identify winning formulas and build frameworks that scale.
Long-form YouTube scriptwriting Write deeply engaging, high-intent scripts of 1–3+ minutes optimised for YouTube's viewer behaviour and attribution style. The discipline is completely different to Meta — you'll need to switch between both modes fluently.
Rapid data analysis and iteration Work closely with media buyers to analyse daily and weekly performance metrics — thumb-stop rates, hold rates, CTR. Translate data signals into the next batch of creative without delay. The insight loop never stops.
Trend hooking and cultural agility Monitor Meta, TikTok and internet culture daily. Spot emerging formats and trends before they peak and capitalise on them fast.
Whitelisting and creator management Oversee the creator content pipeline — managing whitelisting permissions and content variations to maximise social proof across paid channels.
Creative operations Maintain the infrastructure that makes high-volume creative possible — templates, naming conventions, asset management and workflows. A Project Manager will support you, but the creative operations framework is yours.
What we're looking for
Proven experience in performance creative, creative strategy or growth-focused copywriting — ideally agency background followed by in-house
Demonstrable track record producing high-volume paid social creative with measurable performance outcomes
Strong long-form scriptwriting capability — you can write a YouTube script that holds attention for three minutes and converts
Analytical fluency — you read performance data and instinctively know what creative change to make next
Deep understanding of Meta and YouTube as distinct creative environments
Health-tech, wellness or premium consumer hardware experience strongly preferred
High organisational capacity — you can manage a large creative pipeline without dropping quality
An instinct for premium, brand-led creative — we're not interested in what most DTC brands are doing

About Foundation Partners
A People team built for ambitious businesses
The old model for People & Talent doesn’t work for today's businesses. We've built a better one.
Traditionally, early-stage Founders had two options: handle People & Talent themselves, losing precious time they should be spending on product or go-to-market, or hire a generalist, expected to cover everything from culture to recruitment to performance. We offer a more impactful alternative: A fully flexible, fractional People & Talent team with specialist skillsets and hands-on delivery, ready to start driving impact for your business in weeks, not months.
