Job Overview

THE·TEAM is looking for a sharp, culture-obsessed Copywriter to join its team. They will primarily drive tone of voice and creative copywriting for brand social channels for a global tech brand. The role will focus on developing evergreen and campaign content ideas, as well as writing copy and scripts for content and client-facing presentations. Must be in-the-know, have a unique and understood sense of taste, speak the language of the internet, and take writing a tweet as seriously as a campaign manifesto. Sort of.

What You’ll Do

Above everything, you’re an amazing writer. But you’re excited for any ask that comes your way, no matter the size. You’re a stickler for the rules when it’s called for, but you also know when to let go when the idea needs it. As a social native, you instinctively know the kinds of ideas that will fly in-feed and have the potential to pick up steam. You know what trends have legs and which one to hop on before everyone’s doing it. You’ve got the ideas but also have a knack for expressing them in ways that clients love, in decks and in meetings. You’re comfortable working as part of a multi-disciplinary team, across multiple projects, chipping in wherever needed. No ask is too small or too big. And we hope that the big ones aren’t daunting–they really excite you.

You ask questions, you are curious, you take direction well, and you are open to trying new things. Your day-to-day work will include working with an Art Director and another copywriter, a Content Creator and Designers to create assets across multiple platforms for our client. You will also have the support of an Associate Creative Director and Creative Director.
