UGC Strategist

AI overview

Drive user-generated content strategies for high-performing ad campaigns, collaborating with creators and analyzing performance data to enhance creative output.

Remote - U.S. & Canada Only | Full-Time | $75,000–$85,000 USD

We’re not looking for a content coordinator. We’re hiring a UGC powerhouse.

Level Agency is seeking a sharp, creative, and performance-minded UGC Strategist to own our user-generated content production process for paid media. You’ll source creators, lead production, optimize performance, and roll up your sleeves to film and edit when needed. This is a rare opportunity for someone who thrives at the intersection of content creation and performance marketing—who can direct creators just as confidently as they can break down ad performance.

This Isn’t for Everyone.

We’re building something rare: a place where growth, truth, and high performance go hand-in-hand.

You’ll thrive here if:

  • You’re equal parts creator, producer, and strategist
  • You can quickly turn ideas into high-performing ads
  • You love working with talent and building scalable processes
  • You treat performance data like a creative brief

You’ll struggle here if:

  • You prefer to stay behind the scenes
  • You need a rigid structure or hierarchy to thrive
  • You resist feedback or iteration

About Level

We’re an AI-powered performance marketing agency—built for precision, designed to scale, and powered by a scientific mindset. At Level, we blend strategy, media, creative, and machine intelligence to deliver outcomes that matter. Every time. At scale.

We’ve been named one of Pittsburgh’s Best Places to Work and an Inc. 500 Fastest-Growing Company. Our clients span ecommerce, B2B, education, healthcare, and beyond. And our team? Fully remote, deeply collaborative, and relentlessly driven.

Your Role (and Impact)

As UGC Strategist, you’ll be the creative engine behind our user-generated content. You will:

  • Source, recruit, and manage top-tier creators for ad campaigns
  • Develop clear, concise talent briefs including deliverables, guidelines, and scripts
  • Manage creator relationships from first contact to final edit
  • Create content yourself: filming, editing, and experimenting with short-form concepts
  • Write performance-driven scripts, hooks, and messaging for direct-response ads
  • Analyze performance data in collaboration with Media Managers to guide creative iterations
  • Lead the UGC production process end-to-end, continuously improving speed, quality, and output
  • Support accounting and billing processes related to creator partnerships

Requirements

You Bring:

  • A strong portfolio of UGC work (applications without a portfolio will not be considered)
  • Confident on-camera presence with the ability to self-film and edit
  • Proven experience sourcing and managing content creators
  • Knowledge of paid social platforms and direct-response creative
  • Ability to connect performance insights to creative direction
  • Excellent organizational and communication skills

Preferred Experience:

  • Background in influencer marketing or talent management
  • Familiarity with AI-powered video editing or scripting tools
  • Experience creating content for ecommerce, education, or lifestyle brands

AI Expectations

At Level, proficiency with AI tools is a core part of your role—not a nice-to-have. Your success in this position depends not only on your creative chops, but also on your ability to integrate AI into how you work.

You are expected to:

  • Use tools like ChatGPT, Descript, and other AI platforms to streamline scripting, editing, and creator communication
  • Test and share workflows that improve speed or scalability
  • Stay curious and keep learning—the tech moves fast, and so do we

Our Core Values

  • No Ego, All In
    We don’t do “that’s not my job.” We win together.
  • Better Every Day
    We want the feedback—even when it stings.
  • Relentless for Results
    Activity is nothing without outcomes.
  • Driven by Truth
    We challenge assumptions and follow the data.
