Director of Performance Creative @ Beachhead Digital
Published: April 24, 2026
Job description
Beachhead Digital is a boutique performance marketing agency that works with disruptor DTC and omnichannel brands spending $100K–$3M+ monthly on paid social. We’re hiring a Director of Performance Creative to co-lead and help accelerate growth of our creative department—managing senior creative strategists and editors, utilizing AI & automations as a force multiplier to uplevel your team across all workflows, owning creative-only client relationships end-to-end, and building the systems that allow the department to scale without sacrificing quality.
You’re the creative leader who still absolutely loves getting into the weeds of creative R&D and writing briefs. Who still pulls data from Ads Manager and spots the insight that reshapes the next round of concepts. Who gives an editor feedback so specific it transforms the final product—and then leads a client call with the confidence that only comes from knowing the craft inside and out.
You’ve been looking for a role that values that. A place where staying close to the work isn’t seen as “not being strategic enough”—it’s recognized as the foundation of great creative leadership.
This is a player-coach role in the truest sense. You’ll spend meaningful time doing hands-on creative strategy, analysis, and brief development alongside your team—because the best creative leaders are senior ICs who understand the work deeply enough to elevate everyone around them through showing, not telling.
We’ve scaled every brand partner we’ve ever worked with: 1,201% revenue growth for Quince, 715% ad spend scaling for Suja Organic, 6–8x creative hit rate improvement for Blissy, and surpassing management forecasts nearly every month for Alice Mushrooms. 100% client success rate—and we intend to keep it that way.
