Job Description

ABOUT YOU

As Senior Copywriter, you will be responsible for translating the client’s strategy, goals, and vision into compelling online marketing copy that aligns with 3Q strategy and best practices for various platforms. You’ll tackle heavy concepting on a range of accounts and projects across the retail, healthcare, education, financial, and communications industries, and will write everything from short banner copy and social media posts (primary) to search copy, video scripts, and landing pages—all on tight deadlines.

Ideally, you’re a multitasking ace with a passion for storytelling. Your work is top-notch and you have years of solid experience to back it up. You are extremely detail-oriented, highly accountable and responsive, and able to effectively manage multiple projects and competing initiatives without letting anything slip. You can easily knock out 20 headline options, jam on a :30 script, put together a beautiful client presentation deck, and concept disruptive ideas for a potential new account—all in a day’s work. You know how to write within restrictive character counts and are used to working collaboratively and seamlessly within Google docs. While short-form copy will be the primary focus in this role, you will also work on new business and creative pitches. It’s important that you have excellent communication skills and love to evangelize your thinking both internally and to the client.
