We're working with a culture-first creative agency looking for a Social Creative / Copywriter to develop bold ideas and brilliant writing for a portfolio of world-famous brands.

This is a role for an ideas-led creative whose craft is language. Someone who can find an unexpected angle on a brief, write a genuinely funny script and make a caption work just as hard as a campaign headline.

You'll understand how people talk online, what makes different platforms tick and how to bring a brand into the conversation in a way that feels natural.

The role

Working within the copy team and alongside creatives, strategists, designers and producers, you'll develop work spanning everyday organic content through to bigger, fame-making campaigns.

You'll be:

• Coming up with original, social-first campaign and content ideas.
• Writing scripts, on-screen text, captions, headlines and calls to action.
• Adapting brand voices across platforms, formats and audiences.
• Contributing to tone of voice guidelines, messaging decks and creative toolkits.
• Keeping close to the trends, memes and conversations shaping culture.
• Presenting your ideas confidently to colleagues and clients.
• Helping bring concepts to life with an understanding of how social content is filmed, edited and published.

About you

You'll have around 2-4 years' agency experience and a portfolio that shows both creative thinking and excellent writing for social.

You'll bring:

• A sharp ear for how people write and talk online.
• The ability to write brave, funny and engaging copy across different brand voices.
• A strong understanding of platform nuances, from TikTok to LinkedIn.
• The judgement to balance cultural relevance with what makes sense for a brand.
• Curiosity about audiences beyond your own feed.
• A collaborative approach and confidence explaining the thinking behind your work.

Experience developing ideas with a creative partner and writing entertaining short-form video scripts would be a bonus.

Interested?

Send your CV and portfolio, including social-first campaigns, well-executed content and examples of your strongest writing. We'd love to see your contribution to each project and the impact it made. xgikmsk
