ABOUT THE ROLE

We’re building something new at R&R Partners — and we’re looking for a visionary to lead it. As Program Director of our Dynamic Creative Optimization (DCO) Studio, you’ll be at the forefront of our next wave of creative innovation.

• Guide and mentor junior team members or direct reports, fostering a culture of curiosity, testing, and optimization.
   

Project Oversight:

• Manage end-to-end execution of dynamic creative campaigns — including planning, creative development, platform setup, testing, and delivery.
• Own resourcing and timelines across multiple concurrent projects, ensuring on-time, on-budget execution.
• Establish and track KPIs to measure creative effectiveness, iterate based on performance, and report results to internal and external stakeholders.

Platform + Performance Expertise:

• Be the in-house expert on DCO platforms (e.g., Google Studio, Jivox, Thunder, Adobe, Celtra, etc.).
• Champion creative testing — from A/B to multivariate — and translate insights into actionable optimizations.
• Stay on top of emerging tech, formats, and tools in the performance creative and adtech space.
