Junior Copywriter

At Code and Theory, junior writers will dive into concepting, writing and collaborating across all digital touchpoints—inclusive of product, brand, and campaign. Ad school is definitely not necessary; we value an open mind, desire to learn and non-linear path as much as a polished book. This is a place to try new things and have fun finding and honing your copywriting strengths.

Every day, in one way or another, you’ll be working to solve business problems through words. You could be bringing a group’s ideas to life in words, naming a new product or nuancing copy across different digital channels. 

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Format and complete copy for interface copy, manuscripts for sites, collaborating with both interaction designers and visual designers to ensure the work is functional and effective
• Write instructional copy for e-commerce and more, with strategic CTAs
• Apply journalistic sensibilities to pull the lead and thread a narrative
• Concept and brainstorm in diverse groups (not just one visual partner) and writing up ideas
• Develop treatments and video scripts that tell stories through both voice over and supers
• Effectively explain conceptual ideas and develop an argument with impactful cadence
• Create a guide to brand voice, including actionable tactics and best practices for digital channels

WHAT YOU’LL NEED

• 1+ years of creative experience, including digital
• Ability to shift voice and tone to write for a broad range of brands
• An easy collaborator, moving between varying coworkers and clients
• Detail-oriented and deadline driven
• Positive outlook and optimistic attitude; genuinely cares about doing great work
