Creative Skills Coach:
Design the Future of E-commerce Content at Talent Pop
Are You Ready to Lead a Global Talent Transformation?
Talent Pop is the trusted partner powering creative strategy and execution for the world's most dynamic E-commerce and direct-to-consumer (DTC) brands. We don't just hire talent; we forge experts.
We are seeking an exceptional Creative Skills Coach— a hybrid of an instructional designer, digital media expert, and high-performance mentor to own, architect, and deliver the training programs that turn our Virtual Assistants (VAs) into the elite creative force in modern digital content.
This is a high-impact, full-ownership role requiring a rare blend of:
- Deep Creative Media Expertise:
Mastery in short-form video (Tik Tok/Reels), motion graphics, and conversion-focused design principles. - World-Class Instructional Design:
Proven ability to create engaging, scalable, and measurable learning experiences for a remote, global audience.
Your Core Mission:
Architecting Creative Mastery
You will be the visionary behind the entire content curriculum, responsible for the strategy, development, and facilitation of all media skills training.
- Curriculum Strategy & Design Ownership
- Next-Generation Training Modules:
Conceptualize, design, and rapidly deploy dynamic, project-based training modules, video tutorials, and immersive learning simulations focused on high-demand, results-driven e-commerce skills (e.g., Tik Tok/Reels best practices, A/B testing visuals, strategic content repurposing). - Tool Stack Certification:
Develop and manage a robust certification pathway and competency exams for mission-critical creative software (e.g., Canva Pro, Cap Cut, Adobe Express, Meta Business Suite). - Agile Trend Integration:
Establish a system for continuously auditing and updating the curriculum to reflect real-time changes in platform algorithms, emerging content formats, and the latest conversion science. - Expert Coaching & Performance Elevation
- High-Fidelity Virtual Workshops:
Facilitate engaging, hands-on, live-fire training sessions focused on technical excellence, production quality, brand consistency, and immediate conversion-focused design principles. - Data-Driven Critique:
Conduct targeted 1:1 and group critique sessions, diagnosing creative weaknesses using performance data and providing precise, actionable feedback for immediate practical improvement in visual storytelling and media performance. - Establish the Benchmark:
Partner with Operations to define and relentlessly enforce the highest quality standards for all creative deliverables, from initial concept to final, client-ready asset.
What We're Looking For:
The Specialist Who Can Both Do and Teach
We need a proven expert who can translate cutting-edge content strategy into clear, scalable, and reproducible learning paths.
- Instructional Design/L&D
Experience:
2+ years of formal experience in Instructional Design, corporate L&D, or talent development, with a specific portfolio focus on digital media, content creation, or visual design. - Content Creation Mastery:
Exceptional, demonstrated expertise in creating, editing, and managing high-quality, conversion-focused short-form video and static graphics for major platforms (Instagram, Tik Tok, You Tube Shorts). - Technical Fluency: A deep, working knowledge of the modern creative tech stack (Canva, Cap Cut/Premier Pro equivalent, Asana/Trello, etc.) and a capacity to simplify complex workflows for remote talent.
- E-commerce & Metrics Focus:
Clear understanding of how creative execution drives key e-commerce metrics (CTR, CVR, ROAS). Experience designing content specifically for paid social advertising is highly valued. - Master Communicator & Feedback Giver:
Superior virtual presence, with an ability to deliver constructive critique, mentor creative professionals, and translate advanced aesthetic/technical concepts into clear, actionable learning outcomes.
Elevate Your Career
- Highly Competitive Compensation with performance-based bonuses tied to training success metrics.
- Permanent Remote Work Setup with a flexible, results-oriented schedule.
- Dedicated Growth Budget:
Generous allowance for professional development, tools, and certifications to keep your expertise cutting-edge. - Comprehensive Benefits Package (Health coverage/stipend and generous PTO).
- Clear pathways for career progression within the Learning & Development leadership team.
Technical Requirement: A professional, dedicated home office setup is mandatory, including a stable, wired internet connection (20 Mbps minimum) suitable for high-quality live video training sessions.
