"[Your Name] - Creative Strategist"

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Job Title: Creative Strategist - Paid Social, Brand Building

Location: New York, NY (Hybrid)

Location: NYC (Hybrid, 1–3 days/week in-office)

Mugsy is a fast-growing men’s clothing brand built on premium quality and a team that takes pride in everything we put into the world. We’re scaling quickly and investing heavily in paid social as a core growth channel.

We’re looking for an experienced Creative Strategist to own Mugsy’s paid social creative funnel and build some awesome content that embodies the Mugsy brand. This is a high-impact, hands-on role that blends strategic thinking with execution. You’ll be responsible for developing, directing, and optimizing performance-driven creative that converts while staying true to Mugsy’s brand.

You’ll work closely with editors and cross-functional partners to turn insights into scroll-stopping ads that perform at scale.

What You’ll Do:

• Own Mugsy’s paid social creative funnel from idea to execution to optimization
• Turn performance data, testing insights, and trends into winning creative strategies
• Collaborate closely with editors and designers to produce scroll-stopping paid social assets
• Constantly test, iterate, and scale what works with real ownership over results
• Record content yourself and move fast on ideas without waiting for direction from others
• Support our Art Director on seasonal photoshoots and broader content creation
• Be a guardian of the Mugsy brand, ensuring consistency, voice, and quality across all social channels
• This role is equal parts creative, strategy, and hands-on, built for someone who wants influence, autonomy, and the chance to create work that actually moves the needle.

• We’re looking for someone who fits the brand — someone who naturally embodies the Mugsy guy and brings the same confident, driven, no-shortcuts energy we put into everything we build.
• 1–5 years of experience creating paid social content and directing editors
• Strong understanding of paid social fundamentals and performance drivers
• Can speak basic in paid social language (CAC, CPA, CTR, etc.)
• Sharp eye for brand consistency and creative quality
• Based in or around NYC, with the ability to commute 1–3x per week
• Excited to build with a fast-growing men’s clothing brand and a hardworking team

At Mugsy, you’re not just joining a company, you’re joining a tight-knit team that genuinely enjoys building together. We offer competitive pay, real ownership, and clear opportunities for career growth as the brand continues to scale. We care deeply about the work, but we care just as much about the people doing it, which is why we prioritize a healthy work-life balance and trust our team to do great work without burnout. Our culture is collaborative, hardworking, and supportive. The kind where wins are shared, ideas are welcomed, and teammates actually like showing up for one another. We move fast, set high standards, and have a lot of fun doing it together.
