Creative Director/Center of Excellence Leader
Impactable | Remote (Ukraine) | Full-time
Impactable is one of the largest LinkedIn Ads agencies in the world and an official LinkedIn Marketing Partner — a multi-channel B2B demand generation agency built on a proprietary intelligence layer. We're investor-backed, growing fast, and distributed across the US, Ukraine, and Serbia.
Creative isn't an afterthought here — it's core to how we prove ROI for clients and stand out in a crowded LinkedIn Ads space. We're looking for a Creative Director to lead our Creative Center of Excellence: setting the standards, processes, and business results for copy and design as one unified function.
About the role
You'll lead the UI/UX Designer, 2 Graphic Designers, Web Developer — plus Copy contractors, own the creative standards and playbooks that make our work copy-led and performance-driven, and run the Creative CoE as a profitable business unit — not just an execution team.
What you'll do
- Lead and develop the the Creative Team; build a bench of creative talent clients love working with
- Own Impactable's brand positioning and online presence
- Own creative and messaging strategy for our clients — define what gets tested, why, and what we do next based on results
- Build scalable intake, approval, and QA processes so creative delivery stays fast and high-quality
- Oversee and approve top-tier creative deliverables across campaigns, thought leadership, and branding
- Act as a client-facing creative leader — translating vague ideas into clear, high-impact direction
- Own P&L for the Creative CoE: budgets, margins, utilization, and forecasting
What we're looking for
- 6–8 years total experience, with at least 2–3 years in a leadership/management capacity
- Proven experience leading multidisciplinary creative teams (design + copy + dev)
- Experience managing a mixed team of full-time employees and contractors, with different cadences and QA approaches for each
- A portfolio spanning both performance-driven (direct-response) and brand-building creative
- Strong grasp of B2B funnels, LinkedIn Ads, and multi-channel digital creative
- Working familiarity with UI/UX and web design, including design-to-development handoff
- Experience building creative processes, standards, and QA systems at scale
- Direct experience managing budgets, utilization, or P&L
- Strong stakeholder and client communication skills
- Upper-intermediate+ English (daily collaboration with the US team and clients)
- Strong working knowledge of Figma, Illustrator, or equivalent, and AI tools
What success looks like
Creative that measurably improves CTR/CVR and ad longevity, a Creative CoE running as a profitable business unit, and clients who see Impactable as a trusted strategic creative partner.
