We're looking for a kick-ass senior copywriter to join our Web team in London (and report to the Intercom Creative Studio in SF). Our team is growing fast, we're about to launch a new brand, and we're gearing up to do some of the best work of our careers.
We need you to be: a unicorn senior copywriter with the ability to write ultra-creative, boundary-pushing headlinesโbut also be able to take in complex technical information and spit out clear, concise copy our moms' would understand.
You'll also need to be highly self-motivated and organized, comfortable with ambiguity, ready to roll with the punches of a high-growth startup, and driven to produce award-winning work (but withoutโฆyou knowโฆan ego about it).
Oh, and an eagle-eyed editor who can spot things like that double space three lines up. So basically everything. We need you to be everything. Rainbow horn a plus.
(P.S. our new voice and tone will be a huge departure from the way we currently talkโin the best way possible. We will not sound like any other B2B SaaS company you know.)
What will I be doing? ๐
- Writing clear, concise, bold, and at times boundary-pushing web copy
- Playing a big part in rolling out our new brand voice, tone, and style
- Leading copywriting for web
- Bringing storytelling and strategic thinking to each project
- Balancing copywriting excellence with a need for speed and a focus on success metrics
- Editing and proofreading your own work (and, at times, the work of others)
- Partnering with designers, producers, marketers, product experts, company leaders, and external agencies to drive projects forward in a highly iterative and agile environment
- Presenting concepts and work as needed
- Owning projects from concept to final execution
What skills do I need? ๐
- 6-8 years of copywriting experience (ideally working with tech companies)
- A portfolio that shows both wildly creative thinking and an ability to make complex info easily digestible
- A strategic brain
- Strong editing and proofreading skills
- A talent for working independently and staying organized
- The ability to effectively present and justify ideas to stakeholders
- The ability to confidently navigate ambiguous projects
- A roll-up-your-sleeves, positive attitude
- A working knowledge of SEO best practices would be great
