Senior Creative Strategist

Atlanta (Remote Friendly)Senior$85,000 - $115,0005+ years

Greenlight is the leading family fintech company on a mission to help parents raise financially smart kids. We proudly serve more than 6 million parents and kids with our award-winning banking app for families. With Greenlight, parents can automate allowance, manage chores, set flexible spend controls, and invest for their family’s future. Kids and teens learn to earn, save, spend wisely, and invest.

At Greenlight, we believe every child should have the opportunity to become financially healthy and happy. It’s no small task, and that’s why we leap out of bed every morning to come to work. Because creating a better, brighter future for the next generation depends on it.

Greenlight is looking for a Senior Creative Strategist to lead the thinking behind our creative. This person will own the strategic point of view that shapes every brief, turning internal data and cultural signal into a clear creative direction our editors and creators can run with. You'll be the person in the room asking "why this, why now, why does it matter to our audience".

This is a strategy focused role. We need someone who can look at performance data, platform trends, and audience behavior, and translate that into sharp, actionable briefs.

Your day-to-day:

Write creative briefs autonomously, grounding every recommendation in internal performance data and emerging online/cultural trends

Develop a clear strategic rationale for each brief: what we're making, who it's for, why it will work, and how we'll know

Accurately assess and analyze performance data (content, campaign, and platform level) to identify what's working, what's not, and why

Translate analysis into forward looking recommendations

Partner closely with editors to prioritize and champion strong visual strategy, giving clear feedback rooted in strategic intent

Help ensure the "why" behind a creative choice is understood, not just the "what"

Identify and help source content from creators, evaluating fit against brand and campaign strategy

Work directly with creators to ensure output aligns with the brief and Greenlight's voice

Partner with the internal brand team on asset exchange and alignment, ensuring creative stays consistent with broader brand strategy

Act as a strategic connective tissue between data, brand, editorial, and creator relationships

What you’ll bring to the team:

5+ years of experience in creative strategy, content strategy, or a related role, ideally with exposure to both data analysis and creative production

A track record of writing briefs that lead to creative work, not just documentation of requests

Strong analytical skills; comfortable in data/analytics tools and confident drawing conclusions from them

A sharp eye for visual strategy and the ability to give editors direction that improves the work

Experience sourcing or managing creator relationships/content

Excellent collaborator able to work across brand, editorial, and creative teams and keep everyone aligned to the same strategy

Strong written communication; briefs need to be clear, persuasive, and easy to act on

Self starter who can work autonomously and drive briefs from insight to output with minimal oversight

Nice to have:

Experience in fintech, family finance, or consumer subscription products

Familiarity with short form/social content trends and platform specific creative strategy

Experience working with creator/influencer networks at scale
