The Role

We’re looking for a Performance Creative Designer to craft scroll-stopping, high-converting ad creatives across paid media channels. If you have an eye for motion, direct-response creative, and design that drives results, this is the role for you.
As part of the Performance Marketing team, you’ll be responsible for designing thumb-stopping ad creative for platforms like Meta, TikTok, YouTube, and Google, working at the intersection of creative strategy and performance.
If you’re a designer who’s obsessed with how creative drives conversions, loves rapid testing and iteration, and thrives in a fast-moving, high-impact environment, we want to hear from you.

What You’ll Own:

  • Design high-performance ad creatives – Develop static and motion-based assets tailored for direct response advertising across social and paid media.
  • Test and iterate based on performance data – Work closely with media buyers and strategists to refine creatives based on real-time learnings.
  • Push creative boundaries on social-first ads – Create assets that blend performance with storytelling, from UGC-inspired creatives to bold design experiments.
  • Stay ahead of digital ad trends – Keep a pulse on emerging formats, creative best practices, and industry trends to ensure Linktree’s ads remain cutting-edge.
  • Support creative optimisation and versioning – Adapt top-performing concepts into multiple variations to fuel ongoing testing and iteration.

Who We’re Looking For:

  • A performance-first creative mind – You know how to design ads that convert and can balance creative flair with conversion-focused principles.
  • Strong visual storyteller – Whether through static or motion, you know how to craft scroll-stopping creatives that convert.
  • Hands-on with Figma and CapCut – Proficiency in Photoshop, After Effects, Illustrator, and Figma to create both static and motion-based assets.
  • Detail-oriented and agile – You can adapt quickly, thrive on iteration, and work autonomously while collaborating with a fast-paced team.
  • Excited by the future of ad creative – You stay on top of ad trends, platform shifts, and creative formats that drive paid media success.

Our Story

We’re on a mission to empower anyone to curate, grow, and monetize their digital universe. We created the “link in bio” category — and we’re just getting started. From creators, artists, and entrepreneurs to global brands, we’re redefining how people connect with their communities, showcase their content and promote products — all in one link.
Today, a community of 70+ million use Linktree, including icons like Adidas, TikTok, the UN Environmental Program, The NFL, Manchester United, World Central Kitchen, Sabrina Carpenter, Olivia Rodrigo, and Selena Gomez. With 48,000 new accounts created every day, Linktree is the fastest-growing leader in our space.
We’ve teamed up with some of the world’s biggest platforms including TikTok, Snap, YouTube, GoFundMe, Spotify, Google, Stripe, Reddit, Laylo, and Kajabi, to unify Linkers’ digital spaces, and we partner with retail brands Amazon, Nike, Nordstrom Target, Sephora, Vuori, and more to share products they love.
We’re a tight-knit, passionate team building best-in-class tools that make online presence simple, powerful, and yours. If you're excited by the idea of shaping a new category, setting the standard, and making space for everyone to be seen and succeed, we’d love to meet you.

Where and How We Work

We're a global, diverse team spread across continents with offices in London, Los Angeles, Melbourne, and San Francisco. We work together flexibly and you can choose the setup that works best for you: fully remote or a hybrid mix of office and home.
We offer autonomy in how you structure your days and weeks. While we’re mindful of time zones and occasionally collaborate outside the typical 9–5, we lean into async work to keep things flowing. Our culture is family-friendly and Zoom-casual where kids, pets, and delivery drivers are welcome.

  • 100% coverage (and 80% for your dependents) of your monthly premiums for medical, dental, vision, disability and life insurance for US-based employees.
  • Employer contribution towards your retirement.
  • Generous time off for vacation, holidays, parental leave, volunteer time, and other categories.
  • Employee stock option program - we want each and every employee to share in the company’s success.
