The Role
We’re seeking an innovative Creative Strategist who will develop impactful creatives to drive global customer growth. Your key goals will be to scale performance marketing spend with high efficiency and shape Tala’s positioning in the FinTech category.

This role requires a strong understanding of performance marketing, ASO and partner marketing creative metrics, a passion for working with creatives, and strong project management skills.

Analyze market trends, competitor strategies and consumer insights to identify opportunities across paid, organic and partner channels.
Testing & Performance Reporting: Work with Growth Marketers on testing schedules and campaign structures. Review test and ad performance weekly in Omni and decide what to continue, iterate, refresh or replace. Turn creative metrics into actionable insights and share them with vendors and artists.
Creative Production & Contractor Management: Develop the concept, copy, scripts and visual direction for each test, and write detailed Jira briefs for internal artists and contractors.
