About The Role

At Jerry, we are redefining and radically improving how people manage car ownership, one of their most expensive and time-consuming assets. Backed by artificial intelligence and machine learning, Jerry simplifies and automates car ownership while providing personalized services tailored to all car owners' needs. We are the #1 rated and most downloaded app in our category with a 4.7-star rating in the App Store and more than 5 million customers — and we're just getting started.

Why You Will (or Won't) Like Working Here

Large canvas: You won't inherit a set-in-stone playbook. You'll have real creative input and contribute meaningfully to our brand foundation early in your career.

Hands-on from day one: This isn't a support role. You'll be concepting, editing, and iterating — using AI tools and your own creative instincts to ship work that performs.

Car ownership is not "sexy": Insurance, maintenance, and safety are only topics people think about when they have a bill to pay or a flat tire to change. Can you build enthusiasm and trust around a "dry" topic? That's the creative challenge here.

What You'll Do

• Concept and produce video creative across paid social, CTV, and emerging channels — working end-to-end from brief to delivery under the guidance of senior creative leads.
• Lead a small and nimble team
• Bring a sharp visual eye to every asset: elevating composition, pacing, and storytelling to raise Jerry's brand while keeping performance top of mind.
• Stay on top of platform trends, formats, and cultural shifts to ensure Jerry's creative stays fresh and effective.
• Develop hooks, angles, and visual frameworks rooted in what drives real performance — not just what looks good.
• Edit video directly: fluent in editing tools and comfortable cutting, iterating, and polishing ads at speed.
• Leverage AI tools (for ideation, scripting, editing, asset generation, etc.) to accelerate workflows and expand creative range.
• Collaborate closely with media, growth, and senior creative teammates to turn performance signals into stronger creative work.

What We're Looking For

• 8+ years in video creative, art direction, or production — at a performance agency, in-house growth team, or content studio.
• A growing track record contributing to video creative for paid channels (Meta, TikTok, YouTube, CTV, etc.).
• Strong visual instincts — you have an eye for design, composition, pacing, and brand quality.
• Video editing fluency — you can cut and iterate ads yourself, making them feel polished without heavy direction.
• Performance creative curiosity — you understand (or are actively learning) what makes people stop scrolling: hooks, pacing, CTAs.
• Collaborative and eager mindset — comfortable in fast-paced environments and open to feedback from creative and analytics teams alike.
• AI fluency — you experiment with generative tools to speed up production and expand what's creatively possible.
• Bonus: exposure to both performance and brand creative contexts. You're building a point of view on how craft and conversion can coexist.

Why This Role Matters

Jerry's creative team has proven performance chops — and we're ready to level up. This role is an opportunity to grow fast inside a creative engine that blends craft, data, AI, and media strategy. You'll be hands-on from day one, contributing real work that reaches millions of people — and building the skills and portfolio to grow into a senior creative leader.

While we appreciate your interest and application, due to the volume of applications we receive, only applicants under consideration will be contacted.
