Overview
Head of Creative Strategy & Social Jobs in Spain at Creative Milkshake
About the Role
This role is for you, if you’ve got an eye for content, a brain for storytelling, and the hustle to bring big ideas to life. We’re looking for a Head of Creative Strategy & Social who lives and breathes short-form video for TikTok & Meta. We need someone who’s just as comfortable behind the camera as they are leading a shoot, directing a talent, or turning a shot list into a scroll-stopping ad.
If your phone’s camera roll is 90% behind-the-scenes, you thrive in fast-paced shoots, and you’ve got a sixth sense for what actually performs on TikTok and Instagram, this role is for you.
What You’ll Be Owning
End-to-End Production
- Shoot and produce standout short-form content built for paid social with iPhones: the kind that grabs attention and drives results.
- Own the full production process from start to finish: reviewing briefs and storyboards, understanding shot lists, sourcing props, linking files for the post-prod team, and scheduling shoots.
- Direct talent on set with clarity and confidence, capturing content that feels natural, fun, and highly engaging.
- Make smart calls on final shots to use: you know what deserves the final cut and what can hit the cutting room floor.
Creative Operations
- Lead/Collaborate closely with a team of creative strategists and video editors to shape content that nails both the brief and the creative vision.
- Communicate proactively with Account Managers to flag roadblocks, solve issues, and keep everything moving smoothly.
- Own the logistics: scheduling, props, budgets, timelines; all the puzzle pieces that keep a shoot on track.
- Confidently & autonomously manage multiple shoots and production sets with precision and calm under pressure.
- Solve problems on the fly when things (inevitably) shift on set.
- Keep open, timely communication with all creative teams to ensure shoots are planned and prepped well in advance.
Creative Innovation
• Stay ahead of the curve on TikTok and Instagram, from trends and formats to creator styles and cultural shifts.
• Bring fresh, platform-smart ideas into every shoot to create content that will perform.
What You Bring
- Availability to be on-site at our studio in Amsterdam (on-demand requests, workload between 30-40 hours per month)
- 1–4+ years of experience shooting short-form content for brands, agencies, or studios.
- Confidence leading shoots from start to finish: talent direction, timing, shot lists, and ensuring it’s aligned with the storyboards.
- A strong balance of creative vision and executional precision: you get the shots we need, on time and on brief.
- The ability to manage multiple briefs, shot lists, and production sets, staying calm under pressure and quick on your feet when plans change.
- Clear, thoughtful communication across creative, production, and client-facing teams.
- A high level of organization and consistency: you’ve got an eye for the details and take full ownership of your work.
- Curiosity and awareness of what’s trending across TikTok, Instagram, and the wider social media space; you stay plugged in.
