Junior Copywriter

In hiring our next Junior Copywriter, we’re looking for someone with excellent, demonstrable writing skills. As well as innovative ideas, insatiable curiosity, and the ability to tell a great story. You should also be persuasive, ambitious, and unafraid to make mistakes.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Writing compelling sales copy for long and short-form video, emails, ‘advertorials,’ and more
• Acquiring customers through digital channels including native, Facebook, and Youtube
• Executing on strategic and copy-related tasks that will drive brand growth and customer retention

What We’re Looking For

• Exceptional Writing - you write with warmth, clarity, impact, and empathy
• Outside-The-Box Thinking - you think independently, challenge orthodoxy, and constantly look for new and better ways to solve problems
• Remarkable Research - you want to tell the untold stories. To immerse yourself in the research, intent on unearthing the biggest and most compelling ideas
• A Hunger To Learn - you’re an avid, quick learner. A competitive person, who obsessively pursues excellence in their life and work
• A Knowledge Of People - you can put yourself in the shoes of the ‘prospect,’ understanding their demographic traits, buying habits and behavioural psychology
• Instinct & Intuition - you learn from your successes and failures, building on the former to increase your hit rate. Settle for nothing less than the best
• Extreme Ownership - you are comfortable with owning your own projects

Next Steps

• If our hiring manager decides to move forward with your application, you will be invited to a short, online interview
• This is designed to gauge the extent of your relevant experience and knowledge of copywriting, and is followed by a short writing task if successful

Perks & Benefits

• Celebrated 8-week training program - 2 month probationary period, where you learn the full scope of writing world-class direct response copy
• Working with experienced, successful direct response copywriters
• Personal and professional development opportunities - continual learning and “mastery” resources, performance-based pay increases
• Brand equity options
• Regular in-person events - designed to foster a lively, social company culture and improve work-life balance
• 23 days annual leave, plus bank holidays
