About the Role

We’re looking for a Creative Performance Strategist to join our growth team. This is an early-career role for someone who thinks in hooks, lives on the internet, and understands why some ads stop the scroll and others don’t.

What You’ll Do

• Concept and develop direct response creative across every major paid channel — Meta, TikTok, YouTube, Reddit, Google, CTV, and more

• Write sharp, conversion-focused copy for static and motion ad formats, tailoring voice and tone to platform, audience, and moment

• Collaborate daily with designers, motion editors, and the performance buying team to bring concepts from brief to finished asset

• Contribute ideas to the creative testing roadmap, partnering with buyers to understand what’s working and why, and feeding that back into the next round of concepts

• Stay plugged into culture — sports, news, finance, politics — and translate what’s happening in the world into timely, relevant creative that performs

• Develop a strong intuition for Polymarket’s audience and what moves them, building a personal library of angles, formats, and hooks that convert

What We’re Looking For

• 1–3 years of experience in performance creative, ideally at a fast-growing brand or a performance-focused agency

• A portfolio that shows real direct response work — not just pretty ads, but ads built to convert

• Strong copywriting instincts with the ability to write for different platforms, formats, and audiences without losing the thread

• Visual fluency — you don’t need to be a designer, but you know what good looks like and can art direct toward it

• Genuine cultural range — you follow sports, news, and finance with the same curiosity you bring to memes and trends

• Comfort working fast in a collaborative environment where feedback is frequent and iteration is the job

Nice-to-Haves

• Agency background, especially at a shop known for performance creative

• Experience advertising financial products, trading platforms, or anything that required making a complex product feel immediately compelling

• Familiarity with platform-native formats across Social and Programmatic platforms

Benefits

• Competitive salary & equity

• Unlimited PTO

• Full Health, Vision, & Dental coverage

• 401k match

• Hardware setup — new MacBook Pro, big display, & accessories
