Head of Creative Strategy

🌿D2C subscription brand

📍Central London (Hybrid)

💰Up to £75k basic

✨ Ignite are partnering with one of the UK’s fastest-growing D2C brands, and this is a role for someone who lives and breathes creative.

They’re now looking for a Head of Creative Strategy to set the direction for that engine. You’ll shape what ads get created, why they're created and how the team learns from every test, while coaching a team of Creative Strategists to do their best work.

🎯 What the role looks like

• Own creative strategy across the business, from insight and concept through to briefing and iteration
• Lead, mentor and grow the Creative Strategy team
• Build the frameworks and processes that keep output high without everything running through you
• Manage relationships with agencies, creators and partners
• Turn performance data into clear creative decisions

👤 Who we’re looking for

You’ve been a Senior Creative Strategist (or above) at a leading agency or D2C brand, and you’ve got a track record of ads that perform. Now you want the title, the team and the accountability that come with leading the function.

What you’ll bring

• Senior Creative Strategist experience (or above) at an agency or D2C brand
• Proven people management and development experience
• A deep understanding of what makes an ad work: hook, angle, persona, format, creator, offer, pacing and copy
• Confidence in Meta ad account metrics and asset-level data (TikTok experience is a bonus)
• A genuine interest in health and fitness

What’s on offer 🎁

• Basic salary up to £75k (potentially flexible)
• Hybrid working, 3 days a week in the London office
• Unlimited holiday
• Free gym membership at a gym of your choice
• Private healthcare
