With teams across the U.S., you’ll find more than a job at Code3. You’ll find a place to grow, make an impact, and do your best work alongside a team that’s invested in your success.
As an Associate Director of Creative Strategy at Code3, you'll set the creative strategy vision across a portfolio of midsize accounts and lead the team that brings it to life. This role is equal parts strategist, client partner, and people leader: you architect the testing agendas and creative roadmaps that drive performance, you own the room with clients, and you manage and develop a small team of strategists and designers who execute alongside you. You think performance-first and story-always, translating data into insights, learnings, and clear next actions that move accounts toward their strategic goals. You're fluent in the language of Meta, TikTok, and emerging paid platforms, and you're already building AI into your team's workflows to concept faster, generate variations at scale, and sharpen instincts rather than replace them. You take ownership, obsess over the details, and love raising the bar in a quickly moving environment.
