ABOUT THE ROLE
I’m a professional visual artist working at the intersection of painting, music, synesthesia, live performance, and digital storytelling. I have a large existing social audience and a growing business spanning original artwork, commissions, prints, artist collaborations, live experiences, and creative projects.
I’m looking for a highly capable, hands-on Marketing Manager who can take ownership of the marketing ecosystem around my work, with a particular focus on email marketing, integrated campaigns, social media, content, and website conversion.
This role is both strategic and executional.
I’m not looking for someone who simply develops a strategy and hands me a list of things to execute. I need someone who can develop the strategy and then get into Squarespace, social platforms, editing software, and advertising tools to actually make things happen.
A major priority is building a strong, consistent email marketing channel and creating a cohesive relationship between email, social media, my website, paid advertising, and the larger stories and campaigns around my work.
CORE RESPONSIBILITIES
EMAIL MARKETING
Email will be one of the biggest areas of ownership in this role.
You will:
- Develop and own the email marketing strategy and calendar
- Write newsletters, launches, sales emails, storytelling emails, and campaign sequences in my voice
- Build, design, test, and schedule emails directly in Squarespace
- Develop automated sequences, segmentation, list-growth strategies, and subscriber journeys
- Connect email campaigns to social content, launches, artwork releases, collaborations, commissions, exhibitions, and other projects
- Track performance, conversion, and revenue and continually improve the strategy based on results
Being able to understand and write in my voice is essential. I want emails to feel like they are genuinely coming from me, not from a generic marketing department.
SQUARESPACE + WEBSITE
You should be very comfortable working directly inside Squarespace.
You will help:
- Make ongoing website updates and edits
- Create or update landing pages for campaigns and launches
- Update copy and calls to action
- Improve newsletter capture and email integration
- Help optimize the customer journey and website conversion
- Make sure the website reflects current campaigns, artwork, projects, and priorities
- Identify larger website improvements when needed
You do not need to be a developer, but you should be comfortable independently making everyday website and marketing changes in Squarespace.
SOCIAL MEDIA + CONTENT
I create much of the source material and creative direction for my social presence, but I need someone who can help turn that material into a consistent, strategic content ecosystem.
You will:
- Help develop social strategy and campaign concepts
- Identify stories, hooks, and content opportunities
- Help plan how campaigns unfold across Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, email, and the website
- Edit short-form video content when needed
- Repurpose existing footage into effective content
- Help with captions, copy, packaging, and calls to action
- Maintain an organized content pipeline and calendar
- Help ensure social activity supports broader business and marketing goals
Strong short-form video editing skills are important.
As the team grows, you may increasingly brief and direct freelance editors rather than personally editing everything. You should be comfortable doing both: jumping into an edit yourself when needed and directing another editor when that is the better use of resources.
INTEGRATED CAMPAIGNS
I want someone who can see the entire marketing ecosystem rather than treating each channel independently.
For example, if I’m releasing a new print or body of work, I want you to be able to think through:
What is the story?
What happens on social?
What emails do we send?
What needs to change on the website?
What content do we need?
Should we support this with paid media?
What is the timeline?
What are we trying to get the audience to do?
How do we measure whether it worked?
You will help turn those answers into an actual campaign and execute it.
PAID ADVERTISING
You should have a working understanding of paid digital advertising, particularly Meta.
Responsibilities may include:
- Developing paid campaign strategy
- Setting up and managing campaigns
- Identifying strong organic creative to test as paid media
- Developing creative variations
- Monitoring budgets and performance
- Testing audiences and messaging
- Tracking conversion, ROAS, CAC, and other relevant metrics
- Using paid campaign insights to inform the broader marketing strategy
CONTENT + CREATIVE TEAM MANAGEMENT
Initially, this is a hands-on role. As the business grows, I want this person to be capable of taking increasing ownership of marketing production.
That may include:
- Sourcing freelance video editors or other creative specialists
- Writing creative briefs
- Directing editors
- Reviewing edits and providing feedback
- Managing timelines and deliverables
- Determining what should be done personally versus delegated
- Helping build a reliable creative production pipeline around the brand
WHO I’M LOOKING FOR
You may be a strong fit if you:
- Are an excellent writer who can learn and preserve someone else’s voice
- Have significant hands-on email marketing experience
- Are comfortable building and managing campaigns directly in Squarespace
- Can make website edits and landing pages in Squarespace
- Have strong short-form video editing skills
- Understand Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and contemporary social storytelling
- Can think strategically about campaigns across multiple channels
- Understand paid digital advertising, particularly Meta
- Are comfortable with analytics, conversion, and revenue goals
- Can move fluidly between strategy and execution
- Are highly organized and capable of independently moving projects forward
- Can eventually direct editors and other marketing/creative contractors
- Have excellent taste and understand the difference between effective marketing and marketing that makes a creative brand feel overly commercial
Experience working with artists, musicians, creative founders, fashion, design, entertainment, cultural organizations, or premium creative brands is strongly preferred.
A genuine understanding of art, music, culture, and visually driven brands is important for this role.
WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE
I want to be able to focus more of my time on making art, developing creative projects, filming, collaborations, and being the public-facing artist.
You become the person making sure the marketing ecosystem around that work actually functions.
Email goes out consistently. The writing sounds like me. Social, email, website, and paid media reinforce one another. Campaigns are planned in advance. Content gets edited and published. The website stays current. Opportunities aren’t lost because I didn’t have time to market them. And over time, we build systems and a larger team around the pieces that make sense to delegate.
TO APPLY
Please include:
- Your resume/CV
- A brief introduction and why this particular role interests you
- Examples of creative brands, founders, artists, musicians, or businesses you’ve worked with
- Examples of emails you personally wrote and built
- Examples of short-form video content you personally edited
- Your experience working in Squarespace, including both Email Campaigns and website editing
- Your experience with Meta Ads
- An example of a multi-channel campaign you helped develop and execute
- Any experience managing or directing freelance editors or creatives
- Your availability and preferred number of hours per week
- Your hourly rate or preferred retainer structure
Most importantly, please be specific about what you personally executed versus what other members of the team handled.
Pay: $25.00 - $55.00 per hour
Expected hours: 10.0 – 20.0 per week

Tips for Your Remote Creative Manager Job Search
Show async leadership in your portfolio
Remote hiring managers want proof you can lead creative work without a whiteboard. Include case studies that show how you briefed teams, gave written feedback, and moved projects to completion using tools like Figma, Notion, or Slack, not just the final deliverables.
Apply early to remote roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists remote creative manager openings from companies hiring across the U.S. in one place, so you can find roles that match your background and apply directly without sorting through mixed listings.
Highlight cross-functional written communication
Remote creative managers succeed or fail on how clearly they write. In your resume and cover letter, name specific situations where your written briefs, feedback documents, or async updates moved a project forward, because remote employers treat writing samples as a management audition.
Prepare for remote-specific interview questions
Interviewers for remote creative roles consistently ask how you manage creative feedback cycles asynchronously, how you align distributed teams on brand direction, and how you handle revision rounds without real-time conversation. Prepare concrete examples for each of those scenarios before your call.
Remote Creative Manager Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a remote creative manager job?
Target companies that run fully distributed teams or have established remote creative departments, since those employers already know how to support remote creative work. Hiring managers screen hard for async communication skills, the ability to lead projects without in-person check-ins, and a portfolio that shows finished campaigns or creative systems, not just concepts. Candidates who can demonstrate self-directed project management and clear written feedback stand out.
Which companies hire remote creative managers?
Remote creative manager roles are posted by Whatnot, Lumen, and AfterShip and others right now, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Remote-first tech companies, DTC brands, and digital media organizations tend to hire creative managers remotely most consistently, often building fully distributed creative teams.
Can you get a remote creative manager job with no experience?
Yes, but remote entry-level creative manager roles are harder to land because employers expect you to work independently from day one without in-person mentorship. Remote-first startups and smaller DTC brands are more open to candidates without formal management experience. A strong portfolio of creative projects you led, even freelance or volunteer work, plus demonstrated comfort with async tools and written communication, can open the door.
Do you need a degree for remote creative manager jobs?
Not always. Remote employers hiring creative managers weigh portfolio quality, demonstrated creative leadership, and results from past campaigns more heavily than a specific credential. A degree in design, marketing, or communications is a common background, but candidates who show they can lead distributed creative teams, manage brand consistency across channels, and communicate clearly in writing often advance without one.
Which industries hire the most remote creative managers?
Remote creative manager roles concentrate in News & Publishing, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Those sectors hire creative managers remotely because their teams are already distributed across time zones and rely on async workflows to keep brand and content production moving.
