  • Proven experience writing for digital platforms, social media, and content marketing
  • Ability to work independently, take initiative, and thrive under tight deadlines
  • Relevant tertiary qualification in copywriting, communications, journalism, or marketing (preferred)
  • Familiarity with SEO principles and writing for search is advantageous

Key Responsibilities

  • Conceptualise and craft copy across ATL, BTL, digital, social, and CRM channels
  • Translate brand strategy and creative briefs into clear, engaging, and on-brand messaging
  • Collaborate closely with art directors, designers, and strategists throughout the creative process
  • Manage multiple projects and competing deadlines simultaneously without compromising quality
  • Mentor and guide junior copywriters, reviewing output for consistency and quality
  • Maintain, develop, and evolve brand tone of voice guidelines
  • Contribute meaningfully to pitches, presentations, and new business initiatives
  • Stay current with industry trends, digital best practices, and emerging content formats

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
