This is a fantastic opportunity for a performance-driven Creative Director to lead our in-house team in crafting high-converting, direct-response video ads for Facebook, YouTube, TikTok, and beyond. If you’re a gifted storyteller with a deep background in paid media, thrive in a script-to-screen role, and have experience managing large creative teams (ideally in an agency setting), we want to talk to you.

You know how to juggle high-volume testing and big-budget hero productions, spotting winning ads fast and scaling them to tens of thousands in daily spend. You blend structure with creativity, following a proven process while constantly pushing boundaries to keep content fresh, dynamic, and high-converting. You don’t just write scripts, you craft thumb-stopping hooks, high-impact messaging, and video ads that drive ROAS from day one.

Sound like you? Let’s dive in…

Hi, I’m Alex Brown, Chief Marketing Officer at Truly Free, and I need your help. We’re on a mission to free 10M+ homes from harmful chemicals by providing family-safe, innovative home cleaning products.

Until now, we’ve relied on agencies for our Facebook, YouTube, and Instagram ads, but it’s time to bring our ad creative in-house. Over the past three years, we’ve grown exponentially and we’re aiming for new record-breaking growth this year. To reach our goal of becoming a 9-figure, multi-channel brand, we need to take our creative to the next level—and that’s where you come in.

What are the Key Points?

Compensation: $165,000 - $185,000 + Bonus (negotiable for right person)
Location: 100% Remote (Some occasional travel to home office in Michigan)
Benefits: Health/Dental/Vision/Disability/Life + 401k + 3 weeks PTO
Hours: 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. EASTERN (regardless of where you live)
Culture: Human-first with High-Performing, Happy & Humble People (no jerks)

Who Are We?

Truly Free is a fast-growing, self-funded DTC brand on a mission to free 10 million homes from toxic cleaning chemicals and plastic waste. Our journey began 16 years ago when our founder, Stephen Ezell, discovered that everyday household products were making his family sick. That moment sparked a mission—to create powerful, family-safe, and eco-friendly cleaning solutions that work.

What makes us different? We don’t just sell a product—we deliver a system. Our refillable, non-toxic solutions help families detox their homes without adding to the plastic problem. While most brands offer one piece of the puzzle, we provide the full picture—cleaner homes, safer families, and a healthier planet.

Think of us as the Apple of home cleaning—effortless, effective, and sustainable.

What’s Our Past and Future?

We built Truly Free the hard way—organically, product-first. No outside investors, no gimmicks. We started with one non-toxic cleaner and grew into a full suite of home solutions.

Unlike brands that launch with a name and figure out the rest later, we did it in reverse—solving real problems, proving product-market fit, scaling cash flow, and then building the brand. It’s not the usual path, but it works. Now, we’re expanding faster than ever, bringing Truly Free to even more homes.

What’s Our Culture Like?

We Believe In High Performance, Deep Work, And Zero Office Politics. Real Collaboration, Real Results. That’s Why We’ve Built Systems To Protect Your Focus And Time

And beyond business, we believe in giving back. We actively support safe houses and orphanages in Haiti, the Dominican Republic, and Mexico, providing over 200 children with food, education, and shelter.

If you’re ready to join the Refillable Revolution, let’s make every home a Truly Free home.
