Job description
We’re looking for a writer who can take a brief or strategic direction and turn it into clear, resolved and effective creative work.
This role is for someone who can think conceptually, write confidently across formats, and contribute meaningfully to the development of ideas — not just executions.
You should be comfortable working across both brand and commercially-driven briefs, with a focus on clarity, simplicity and effectiveness.
This role sits within a collaborative creative team environment, with the expectation that you take increasing ownership of work and continue developing toward a more senior creative role over time.
What We’re Looking For:
- Strong conceptual thinking and writing ability
- Ability to simplify complex or commercial asks into compelling ideas
- Good understanding of how ideas translate across channels and formats
- Strong attention to detail and pride in craft
- Reliable, collaborative and solution-oriented
- Comfortable contributing in discussions and reviews
- Positive attitude toward feedback and development
- Ambition to continue growing into a more senior creative role
Experience
- 4–7 years’ experience in an agency or similar environment
- Strong portfolio demonstrating conceptual thinking and execution across channels
- Experience working across brand, retail and digital campaigns
- Experience presenting work internally and contributing to creative reviews
What You’ll Do:
- Develop ideas and copy in response to creative briefs
- Write across campaigns, digital, retail and content outputs
- Collaborate with art directors and creative leadership to build strong, effective work
- Present work in internal reviews and client presentations
- Refine and develop work through feedback and collaboration
- Ensure work is accurate, polished and aligned to the brief
- Take ownership of projects from concept through to deliver
We value:
- Clear thinking
- Ownership and accountability
- Collaboration
- Reliability
- Commercially effective creativity
- Pride in craft and attention to detail
Should you not hear from us within two weeks after the application deadline, please consider your application unsuccessful.
