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.

Drive midsize accounts to strategic success by connecting creative decisions to business outcomes, spotting risks and opportunities early, and steering the creative roadmap accordingly
Increase performance with metric evidence by pushing your team to embrace best practices, new ad formats, and a performance-first execution method
Turn performance data (thumbstop, CTR, ROAS, CPA) into insights, learnings, and actions that…
