About the Role:

We’re a boutique design agency looking for a Copywriter. You’ll help define the voice of a wide range of brands by writing copy that is clear, original, and makes people have irrationally deep feelings for consumer products.

Sometimes the copy you write will have to be funny. Sometimes it will have to be weird. Sometimes it will have to be normal. It will be your responsibility to figure out what kind of words go where and why.

Key Responsibilities:

Concept taglines, web, and social copy

Develop brand voice and messaging

Brand naming based on creative briefs

Writing & copy editing for client presentations

Qualifications

Creative and lateral thinking to generate distinctive ideas

Big brain

Aversion to copy that is cliché, obvious, or phoned in

Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to navigate tricky briefs

Experience writing long-form and short-form copy

Attention to detail, grammar, spelling, and punctuation

Ability to work independently as well as part of a team

Great time-management skills

Funny, serious, cool, good vibes

Send a wide range of work examples:

Brand taglines and general copy (most important)

Naming examples

Web or social copy

On-pack copy

OOH copy

Compensation

$60-$110 per hour

Rate based on relevant work experience and proficiency.
