Copywriter

THE ROLE

 We Are Social is seeking a Copywriter to join our growing team! The copywriter will work alongside our design team and creative leadership to create and execute ideas for some of the biggest brands in the world.

WE ARE 

A creative agency powered by social connections. That means we thrive on what’s trending and creating campaigns that get people buzzing. We call it “Ideas Worth Talking About,” and we've proud to have played a part in some of the most culturally relevant campaigns of the decade for brands like McDonald’s, Adidas, Universal Studios, and YouTube.

WHY YOU’LL LOVE IT HERE

• We like to laugh, we live for celeb gossip and we’re great on AUX.
• Our passport program lets you explore and work from one of our 18 other offices worldwide, including Paris, Singapore, Madrid, Dubai, London and more!
• You best believe we know how to celebrate our wins. And our losses (it’s how we learn). 
• From carbon offsets to community kitchens, we’re passionate about making a difference. 
• Did we say snacks? Because we have great snacks. (Shoutout to Sheila who keeps the kitchen stocked.)

YOU ARE

• A person who thrives in a fast-paced environment, responding quickly and proactively
• Not interested in just following trends – you want to create them
• A self-starter, who’ll take ideas from concept to execution, navigating feedback like a pro  

Traditional agency experience is not required, but it’s a plus. What matters is your deep understanding of what resonates with social audiences. This role is energetic, innovative and forward-thinking. Alongside engaging with communities, you’ll guide brands by staying ahead of social trends and cultural moments. In return, you’ll join a global agency dedicated to generating buzzworthy ideas for some of the world’s leading brands. 

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Concepting ideas for anything from a multi-platform campaign to an original content series to a reactive meme interpolation.
• Writing copy that hits the strategy on the head and the clients in the heart.
• Working with the strategy team to build content strategies and develop voice & tone.
• Understanding how to look at a voice & tone document, become that brand, and write copy as that brand.
• Championing high-level story and narrative craft at all times.
• Supporting concepting and copy for new business pitch teams.
• Helping develop new editorial approaches.
• Proactively providing creative solutions for clients. 
• Ideating and executing against social and behavioral trends.
• Presenting ideas and work persuasively to all audiences.
• Creating and nurturing collaborative relationships across the business whether it’s with strategy, client service or production.
• Reporting to our Creative Director
  

REQUIREMENTS FOR THIS ROLE

• Culturally literate and tapped into new and emerging platforms.
• Experienced in creating never-been-done-before ideas for ambitious global brands.
• Brings a positive attitude and keeps the ego in-check.
• An ability to inspire, influence and motivate others.
• Impeccable writing skills, spotless grammar and the ability to write as well as edit, all while keeping one eye on the brief. 
• An ability to work in tandem with the design team to present fully thought-out and visualized concepts. 
• Pre-production, on-set and post-production experience is a plus.
• Knowledge of and experience with different types of writing (e.g. scripts, taglines, social copy, deck copy, concept write-ups etc.)
• 3 years of experience working in creative industries (agency experience preferred)
