We’re on the lookout for a Senior Copywriter to join our team on a 6-month Fixed Term Contract! If you’re a sharp creative conceptual thinker with a passion for crafting words - from punchy headlines to compelling scripts, hashtags, manifestos, UX copy, emails, social posts and everything in between - this role is for you.
We need someone who can prove their writing chops across multiple social platforms and truly understands the nuances of all things social. Strong communication and presentation skills are a must, as you’ll be expected to pitch, present, and defend ideas with confidence.

While this is a ‘solo creative’ role, you will have the opportunity to pair up with different designers and art directors, as well as work closely with the wider project teams to ensure strategic and creative alignment.
Beyond writing, we’re looking for someone wih a strategic mindset and brand-building instincts, someone who knows best practices inside out and has experience in TTL campaigns. If that sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you!
