Director of Performance Creative
Nello | Full-time | Remote (US)
We're glad you're here! And we're excited to get to know you better. Please read carefully the information below about this role!
About the role
You’ll own creative strategy across all advertising mediums, with a primary focus on paid creative across Meta, TikTok Ads, TikTok Shop, and any other paid channels.
You’ll manage a creative strategist(s), video editors, and work closely with our team to review and acquire content to achieve your vision and to drive results. You'll be reporting directly into our EVP of Marketing.
What you'll own
• Own the creative roadmap for paid social (largely Meta, TikTok): concepts, hooks, scripts, and briefs for statics, video, and UGC.
• Run a structured creative testing program — form hypotheses, ship variants quickly, read performance data, and double down on what works.
• Lead our UGC & content creator content pipeline: sourcing, briefing, and directing creators and affiliates so their content performs for the brand.
• Support the content strategy for organic social and TikTok Shop — what we post, what we amplify, and how organic feeds the paid engine.
• Own creative reporting: a clear, shared view of what’s working, what’s fatiguing, and what we should make next.
About Nello
• Nello is the fastest growing emotional wellness brand today that makes functional superpowders & beverages that help people feel like themselves, but better.
• We're focused on efficacious products that are also delicious, crave-able & flavor forward. We use transparent labels, no proprietary blends, & always opt for patented ingredients at the right dosages with clinical studies so we know you're getting something that works.
• We’re growing fast across TikTok Shop, Amazon, & currently nationwide in Target, Walmart, Costco, Kroger & many other retailers. We’re a lean, hands-on team that moves quickly and uses modern tools and data-driven decision-making. Our core values that we live by are build boldly, act like an owner, mission over ego & signal not noise.
Who we're looking for
• 5+ years in creative strategy, growth creative, or content marketing — with at least 2 years in DTC consumer products (food & beverage or wellness a plus).
• A proven record of ad creative that scaled: you can point to specific concepts you developed and the performance results behind them.
• Fluent in the paid social metrics that matter — thumbstop, watch time, CTR, CPA/ROAS — and comfortable letting data overrule your taste.
• Experienced managing UGC creators, influencers, or affiliate content programs end to end.
• A strong writer and brief-builder who can direct editors, designers, and creators to a sharp outcome.
• Native-level intuition for TikTok and Instagram — you know why something works before the comments tell you.
• Scrappy and hands-on: comfortable making things yourself when speed matters, not just delegating.
• Familiarity with creative analytics platforms (e.g., Motion) and TikTok Shop’s affiliate ecosystem.
• Strong project management experience on platforms like ClickUp (ClickUp-specific preferred).
• Experience with AI creative tooling (image/video generation, AI voiceover, avatar video
We aim to pay competitively for our size, stage, and market. For this role, in addition to base salary, there is bonus, equity, & a benefits package covering medical, dental, vision, & PTO available. Plus a lifetime supply of product!
