We're looking for a skilled copywriter and strategic thinker to become part of our studio on a contract basis. Right now, that's ~3-5 hours per week.

You'll write copy across multiple channels while also bringing strategic perspective to client marketing initiatives. You won't just execute briefs – you'll research, question, spot gaps, and make recommendations. You're comfortable with ambiguity and figuring out your own direction.

If you're a generalist that's energized by variety, thinks strategically, and writes really (really!) well, we'd like to hear from you.

‍

What You'll Do

‍

Copywriting – You'll own multiple channels of copy for our clients and internal projects: social media captions, website landing pages, email campaigns, long-form content pieces, and everything in between. You'll write in different voices and styles, adapting to each client's tone and personality. You can use AI as a tool, but the thinking, strategy, and personality behind every piece comes from you.

‍

Strategic Thinking – You're not just executing what we hand you. We'll provide strategic direction and you'll take it from there. Research the competitive landscape. Identify what's missing in a client's positioning. Recommend content strategy shifts based on what you're seeing. Come back with ideas, not just questions.

‍

Marketing Generalist Work – You're comfortable jumping between disciplines. One day you're analyzing a client's audience positioning, the next you're looking at their email performance, the next you're recommending a messaging shift. You don't need to be an expert in everything – you need to be genuinely curious and willing to figure things out.

‍

‍

What We're Looking For

‍

Copywriting Skills – 3+ years of professional copywriting experience (if you’re a marketer who’s written a lot of copy because - let’s face it - that’s what we do! You count.). You write clearly, persuasively, and with personality. You can shift your voice depending on the client and channel.

‍

Marketing Generalist Mindset – 3+ years of marketing experience in some capacity. You understand how different marketing pieces fit together. You can think strategically, not just tactically.

‍

Self-Starter – You dive in, make mistakes, and learn from them. You don't wait for permission to explore an idea or ask a smart question.

‍

Strategic Thinker – You see gaps. You make connections. You're comfortable with ambiguity and capable of finding your own direction within a framework.

‍

Over-Communicator – You communicate about deadlines, expectations, and what you need. You ask clarifying questions. You flag issues early. You keep us in the loop.

‍

Self-Sufficient – You know when to Google and figure things out, and you know when to ask for help or more context. You have good judgment about which is which.

‍
