Social Copywriter in London

12-Month Fixed-Term Contract London, UK | Hybrid Working (3 Days in the Office) £21.53-£23.53 per hour

Are you the kind of copywriter who knows exactly why a five-word hook works? Do you understand that fandom isn't simply an audience—it’s a community with its own language, culture and expectations?

We’re partnering with a globally recognised entertainment company to recruit a Social Copywriter to join its award-winning creative studio. This is a rare opportunity to work across an iconic portfolio of brands spanning tabletop games, beloved children's entertainment and some of the world’s most passionate fan communities.

You’ll create social-first copy that entertains, engages and drives conversation across global audiences. From writing scroll-stopping hooks and platform-native video scripts to crafting captions and contributing to content ideation, you’ll understand how words need to adapt across platforms, formats and communities.

This role would suit someone who lives and breathes social media, has exceptional instincts for brand voice and genuinely understands how to write for fandoms. Whether you’re tapping into the deep lore of a tabletop franchise or creating playful content for family audiences, you’ll know how to make content feel authentic, relevant and culturally resonant.

The Role

• Collaborate closely with designers, editors, social managers and creatives from concept through to delivery
• Write for global audiences across multiple markets and time zones, adapting messaging where required
• Bring fresh ideas, cultural insights and platform knowledge into the creative process
• Stay ahead of social trends, platform updates and evolving audience behaviours

About You

• Equally comfortable writing concise, attention-grabbing hooks and longer-form storytelling scripts
• Commercially minded with an appreciation of how creative work drives engagement and performance
• Highly organised and able to manage multiple brands and deadlines simultaneously
