This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a E-Comm Static Ads Designer based in Germany. This role is focused on creating high-volume, high-converting static advertising creative for e-commerce and performance marketing campaigns. You’ll design assets that are built to capture attention quickly, communicate compelling value propositions, and drive measurable action. The work spans Meta, Pinterest, Google Display, and programmatic advertising, with opportunities to explore a wide range of visual styles. You’ll balance polished brand design with direct-response and UGC-inspired creative designed for performance. Rapid experimentation is central to the role, with frequent iteration of winning concepts, headlines, backgrounds, layouts, and calls to action. You’ll work in a remote-first, asynchronous environment that prioritizes output, speed, creative thinking, and focused deep work. Your portfolio and ability to demonstrate the strategic thinking behind successful performance creative will be key to your success. Design high-performance static advertisements for Meta, Pinterest, Google Display, and programmatic campaigns, with a strong focus on engagement and conversion. Create a broad range of creative formats and styles, from UGC-inspired and unconventional direct-response graphics to polished, premium brand layouts.

Expert-level proficiency in at least one major design tool, such as Figma, Adobe Photoshop, or Canva, with the ability to work quickly without compromising quality. Proven ability to produce high volumes of creative and develop 10 or more variations of a successful concept efficiently. Strong understanding of visual hierarchy, typography, layout, color contrast, hooks, CTAs, and other principles used to encourage user action. Experience creating static paid-social advertisements, particularly images and carousels designed for measurable performance. Strong creative judgment and the ability to adapt visual styles to different audiences, products, platforms, and campaign objectives. Ability to interpret performance feedback and translate it into actionable creative iterations. Experience with DTC or UGC-style advertising is highly desirable. Strong portfolio or case studies demonstrating static paid-social or performance-media work, including examples of creative hooks, winning concepts, and iterative variations.
