Time for a job that doesn’t make you want to disappear into the void. ✨
World Host Group (WHG) is looking for a Senior Copywriter to help us build a brand from scratch, in a role where copy really, really matters.
You’ll master the tone of voice for a disruptive (buzzword!!) new hosting brand. This is more than just writing—it’s your chance to own and execute (another buzzword!!) across a zillion touchpoints without getting watered down.
If you love big, bold brand-building, this is it. If you prefer a quiet job rewriting H1s for SEO or chucking out AI-generated nonsense like supercharge your business with a seamless platform that unlocks profit, it’s not.
We’ll pay you up to £60k a year, and you’d be part of a hybrid, UK-based team. Our office is in the Cotswolds. Apparently Ellen just moved here, which is pretty crazy. We haven’t run into her yet.
Why us?
We’re a web hosting provider that’s growing explosively across 40 remote locations. Maybe that doesn’t mean much to you. Here are some of the exciting bits:
- In 2019, we set out to build a scalable hosting business for a global market, building infrastructure & developing location and network-agnostic software with 24/7 global support
- In a few short years, we grew from a team of 30 to 800+ across 11 offices
- We serve 2M+ websites (from 80,000 not so long ago!) across 20+ data centres
- Our brand portfolio is booming, and we’re in the midst of a massive brand (re)launch, which you’ll be directly involved in and (partly) responsible for.
We’re basically a tech company without tech bro culture that’s enjoying massive, global growth. Think startup culture with much deeper pockets. That means a lot of work—but also a huge opportunity.
What you get
- A proper wage that respects your time and talent - up to £60k
- Benefits package including pension
- Generous paid leave - because this is a job, not a jail
- Hybrid working - we’re flexible but not 100% remote
- A work laptop with all the bells & whistles (we’re a Design team, so obviously it’ll be a Mac)
- Plus, you get to work with the Head of Brand, who is hilarious and charming and definitely didn’t write this. Also, she looks a little bit like Matilda. A liiiiittle bit. 🤏
We don’t really do the whole ping-pong / free fruit / half-days on Fridays thing. It’s a little dull. And you’re worth a lot more.
Why you?
You get brand. You get creative. You get that “competitive salary” is a joke. As Senior Copywriter, we need you to have:
- 5+ years in a senior copywriting role
- Experience in writing marketing, digital, UX, campaign copy
- Proven experience working within a defined brand voice (bring along writing samples or links of work you’re proud of or enjoyed making most!)
- Strong knowledge of SEO, conversion strategies, and web writing best practices
- A level head and cool with quick turnarounds, and the obvious eye for detail
- Hosting industry experience is a huge plus, although other SaaS experience is also beneficial
- Experience leading campaigns and people
What you’ll be doing
- Writing a LOT. Like, a lot a lot. It’s literally your job title
- Working closely with the Head of Brand to shape the voice of a massive new hosting brand, and adapting its tone across different platforms
- Owning the brand tone of voice and making sure it doesn’t get watered down
- Working at serious speed (we won’t lie, the first six months will be pretty full-on)
Please, for the love of peace, do not send me a cover letter or ask me to pop in time for a quick chat. Just say hi! I’ll be much happier if you just email your favourite gif to me ([email protected]).
