The Lowdown

Roles & Responsibilities

• As a Senior Copywriter, you wield words, wisdom, and wit on behalf of clients who seek us for the creative production of their digital products, ideas, content, and campaigns
• Develop concepts and copy for anything you could possibly throw at an integrated campaign: from tag lines and TVC scripts to concepts for experiential installations and digital activations
• Presenting ideas and building client relationships is second nature to you
• Oversee copy for all projects in production, working with the team to verbalize ideas, iron out concepts, solve creative issues through words, and nail the copy
• Lead the copy conversation with clients; proactively respond to feedback in person and in writing; follow up with creative and account teams throughout the project
• Creatively responsible for all key copy content, including concept development and the writing of scripts
• Ensure everything makes sense, is consistent, and meets the brand’s objectives

Requirements: 

• Minimum of 5 years of professional Copywriting experience
• You can produce quality content out of thin air as well as based on briefs or input written by others
• You have a proven ability to tackle the same topic from a variety of angles and can produce alts for internal reviews and A/B tests like ABC
• Your writing is clear and compelling at the same time: convincing without cheesy puns or esoteric language (the cognoscenti have no need for grandiloquence)
• You combine creativity with critical thinking; your analytical approach enables you to ask the right questions and make sense of content and sales strategies
• While you might be tired of the word, your skills in storytelling allow you to co-create scripts for spots and how-to videos ranging from 6 seconds to 6 minutes
• You know about the good, the bad and the ugly of programmatic advertising, behavioral targeting and dynamic content
• You have a knack for structure and organization—both in words and in the way you work—creating and collaborating through comprehensive content matrices based on spec sheets and other technical requirements
• You can always make a case for your copy, rationalizing your choices and considerations to win people over with your words
• As part of a constructive feedback loop, you can give and handle criticism without taking it personally
• As an editor, you are the change you want to see in the word: you improve what is said, not just how
• Your attention to detail is close to annoying: typos, inconsistencies and questionable punctuation marks have little chance getting past your cursor
• In addition to selling consumers on their new drive, your job is to ensure that everything makes sense, is consistent and meets the objectives
• Bonus round #1: Experience in Filmmaking and/or broadcast TVC
