Creative Strategist – Organic Growth & Paid AdvertisingThe Trading Floor | Full-Time

About The Trading FloorThe Trading Floor is one of Canada's fastest-growing trading education companies, scaling from $0 to over $15M in annualized revenue in less than two years.

We're building more than an education company. Our vision is to create a global trading ecosystem where traders can learn, connect, share strategies, and eventually trade directly through our own platform.

We're looking for a Creative Strategist who understands how to turn content into a scalable customer acquisition engine.

About the RoleYour mission is simple: Find winning content formats, turn them into repeatable systems, and scale them across organic social media, paid advertising, and networks of UGC creators.

We're not looking for someone who just comes up with creative ideas. We want someone who understands why content goes viral, what makes people click, and how to systematically reproduce winning results.

You'll be responsible for developing creative strategies that generate attention, engagement, leads, and revenue.

Key Responsibilities1.

Creative

Research & Content Strategy

- Continuously research viral content, emerging trends, competitors, and successful advertising campaigns.
- Identify winning hooks, storytelling structures, angles, and content formats.
- Develop original content concepts designed for organic distribution and paid advertising.
- Analyze what makes certain videos successful and translate those insights into repeatable creative frameworks.
- Build and maintain a library of proven creative concepts, hooks, and formats.

2. Copywriting & Paid Advertising
- Write high-converting scripts, hooks, headlines, and ad copy.

UGC Creator Network & Scalable Content FormatsA major part of this role is building a repeatable content distribution system through UGC creators.

- Test different creator profiles, messaging angles, and storytelling approaches.
- Build growth strategies around creator partnerships, affiliate content, and distributed content production.
- Ensure winning formats can be reproduced consistently without losing authenticity.

Example: If one creator generates 1 million views using a specific video format, your responsibility is to understand why it worked, develop variations, and create a system allowing 50 other creators to test and reproduce that success.

- Organic Growth & Virality
- Design organic growth strategies for Instagram, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and other social platforms.
- Identify opportunities for viral loops, social sharing, and community-driven distribution.

- Experience producing ads with significant profitable advertising spend.

How Success Will Be MeasuredWe care about results, not the number of ideas generated. Your primary KPIs will include:
- Winning Creative Rate: Percentage of tested concepts that meet performance targets.
- Organic Reach: Qualified views and engagement generated through organic content.
- Paid Creative Performance: Improvements in CPA, CAC, and ROAS.
- Creator Replication Rate: Number of creators successfully reproducing winning content formats.
- Creative Output: Number of high-quality concepts and variations tested every week.
- Scalable Formats Developed: Number of proven content frameworks consistently generating results across multiple creators.

Who Will Excel in This Role?You're constantly analyzing social media content and asking yourself: Why did this go viral? Why did this ad work? How could we make it better? You understand that the goal isn't to produce one viral video.

The goal is to build a machine that can produce winning content repeatedly, distribute it through hundreds of creators, and turn attention into measurable business growth.

If you've already built something like this, we want to hear from you.

How to ApplySend us your resume, portfolio, and examples of organic content or paid advertising campaigns you've helped scale.

More importantly, show us what you've created, the results it generated, and how you would replicate those results at scale.
