  • Analyse performance data to understand what resonates and recommend new testing opportunities.
  • Collaborate with our brand and eCommerce teams to ensure every asset reflects Kabode’s gentle, whimsical aesthetic.
  • Stay curious—bringing fresh trends, creative formats, and innovative ideas to the table.

  • A genuine passion for digital storytelling and visual creativity.
  • Experience creating social ads—either professionally or through personal projects.
