Design Manager
“They celebrate you as an individual and only want to see you succeed. Some companies say that, but they actually mean it! And you see proof of it every day in the partners and managers actions.”
- Adriana
Creative Services BD Manager
“CTC makes it easy to do the best work of your life. Their connections to influencers and platform representatives mean that I get to be on the bleeding edge of social advertising and online sales. I go home each day knowing I am becoming better leader and a even better digital marketer.”
- Chris
VP of Differentiation
“When the ethos of your company is to help entrepreneurs achieve their dreams, all parts culture, customer service, sales, logistics, communication, operations, management, process and procedure conspire toward greatness. CTC is a catalyst for dreamers ready to put in the work. What I never thought was possible in work culture, personal/professional development, and job satisfaction, CTC has made a reality.”
- Panagiota
Business Development Manager
“Both employees and clients alike are valued deeply through an investment into personal well being, relationship development and goal achievement. I can confidently and proudly say that CTC is more than just a workplace, it’s a family that I’m excited to be a part of and find myself grateful for each and everyday.”
- Peter
Digital Marketing Analyst
"I have learned more in one year at CTC than I have with the rest of my career combined. CTC pushes you constantly to think outside the box to achieve things that you never thought you are capable of. The level of transparency from the partners is unparalleled where you feel a personal attachment to the business and want to achieve the same company goals collectively."
- Vincent
"A rare opportunity.."
The partners at CTC are some of the greatest people you will ever meet. They are smart, humble and oh so kind! It's great to see a company who cares so much about their employees and they are constantly trying to maintain a positive culture while battling growing pains. CTC shows they actually care about employees through generous benefits (4 weeks pto, 3% 401k matched, health benefits) and they literally help employees achieve their dreams.
The Benefits
We Invest In Our Employees
And their well-being by providing them with a generous benefits package.
- Up to 4 weeks off of paid vacation in addition to holidays, your birthday, and the week of Christmas off paid.
- A 401k program with a 3% match for every employee
- Comprehensive medical, dental and vision insurance that fits your needs and lifestyle as well as a monthly wellness reimbursement program to inspire holistic health.

But care shouldn’t stop there, and at CTC, it doesn’t.
What is TMYD?
TMYD is a voluntary—though encouraged—resource for our employees, wherein they meet biweekly with a licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (MFT) to discover, define, and eventually launch their dreams. In partnership with ACTIVATE CULTURE.

About the Position:
The CTC Creative Services Team is a group of visionaries who bring the spirit of joy, authenticity, and
data-driven insights to the content, web development, and web optimization we develop for our
clients. We’re podcast-obsessed, caffeine lovers, dog owners, and we bring our own passion, insights,
and dreams to our work. We’re the type of people who are struck by meaningful ideas in the middle of
the night and can’t wait to share them around the conference table the next morning.
Our ideal eCommerce Manager (ECM) has a knack for partnership and the drive to see a project
through to the end. A collaborative self-starter, the ECM enables our team to think holistically about
the entire customer journey, you’re the subject matter expert that will seamlessly tie our client
entrepreneur’s objectives to the soul and spirit of each brand, and make that connection for each and
every current or potential customer. You’re bought in to the fact that we’re setting the bar for evolved
perspectives on the ecommerce ecosystem, from strategy, ideation, and development through to
execution and deployment, and you’re stoked to be an integral part of it.
Strategize | Timing is everything, or so they say. For us, it’s the difference between success and
missing the mark. Our existing and future clients have all kinds of customers and it’s up to us as a
digital marketing agency to serve the right content, at the right time, in the right order. The ECM
develops and implements commerce strategies in a way that positively affects conversion and
performance. This means creating thoughtful calendars outlining website development next steps to
include uploads and landing page development. When it comes to strategies and timelines, clear is
kind.
Collaborate | Quickly pull together details from multiple platforms, projects, people, and places and
then, partner with developers to improve website speed, PPC, SEO, display, affiliates, email marketing
and social media. To sum it all up: collaborate. The ECM is all about collecting information, making
educated decisions, and partnering with the right people to execute.
Connect | As ECM, it’s up to you to connect the dots for our consumers online. Our clients have
amazing products for consumers worldwide, but the connection between window shopping online
and converting someone into a loyal customer for the long haul are the dots that the ECM researches,
analyzes, strategizes, and reports on. The ECM will be relied upon to optimize existing inventory
systems and to craft enthralling, convertible content for PDPs.
Anticipate | Anticipating the needs of CTC wins over reacting to the needs of CTC, every time. We
extend the same reverence to our client entrepreneurs; it’s our duty. The ECM assess, suggests,
selects, and / or manages third party apps, potential ESP vendors, and existing or future CMS vendors
to streamline success. And when we say success, we don’t mean luck. We mean looking at the data,
online activity, merch reports, sales, conversion, A/B testing, and optimizing online presence on mobile
and desktop. As the ECM we’re depending on you to be forward thinking and mindful in approach
considering timeline, questions, and short and long term solutions. Let’s get after it online!

About the Position:
Based out of the “CTC” office in Orange County, California, the CTC Content Team is a small group of talented production creatives who bring the spirit of joy, authenticity, and storytelling to the content we create for our clients. We’re athletes, surfers, caffeine lovers, and dog owners, and we bring our own passion, insights, and dreams to our work. We’re the type of people who are struck by creative ideas in the middle of the night and can’t wait to share them.
The Content Director is the creative quarterback for a group of passionate storytellers. Working closely with the VP of Creative Services, you will successfully ideate, develop, pitch, execute and measure the performance for a creative vision in support of a brand’s objectives. Your ability to define and guide a vision from concept through completion is key, even among shifting expectations and deadlines. In your huddle, you’ll have the support of an all-star line-up of pre-production players and post-production veterans. Your unique skillset allows you to pitch clients, orchestrate talent, inspire fellow creatives, and anchor your support team as they unite around a common vision of meaningful storytelling. All of this will reflect the revenue growth of the team - the core metric to measure your success in the role.
Elevate | You are essential to curating the customer journey through content storytelling. You inspire creatives to buy into the core creative vision approved by the brand. You’ll be sourcing new ways to elevate the content we deliver through a blend of Facebook dashboard data geeking and the creative resources (humans) available to you.
Execute | You are responsible for the sustainable growth of the content team. You manage a team of creators, innovators, and storytellers, and you ensure that your team has all the tools, resources, and skills necessary to do their jobs to the fullest. You’re as comfortable running and gunning in a team of 2 as you are leading a crew of 20 through a fast-paced production.
Orchestrate | Your awareness of essential players brings creative projects to life as you bring people together and develop team collaboration. You’re comfortable commanding a room without demanding the room.
Innovate | You love “winning” for brands and continue to innovate the formats, methods, aesthetics and creative potential as you deepen client relationships and drive overall success. You use data to inform the creative decision making process and refine your process as more data becomes available.
About You:
