• Remain hands-on as a writer, particularly on important briefs, campaigns and pitches.
• Collaborate closely with Art, Design, Strategy, Account Management and other teams to develop integrated creative solutions.
• Mentor and support copywriters in improving their conceptual thinking,



writing craft and ability to turn insights into ideas.
• Review and refine work to ensure it is clear, relevant, distinctive and creatively sharp across formats.

Qualifications
• 7–9 years of agency experience, primarily in a copy/creative function.
• Strong experience across social, digital, mainline advertising, campaigns and scripting.
• A strong portfolio demonstrating both conceptual thinking and executional writing across multiple formats.
• Someone who can identify generic thinking and knows how to push ideas towards stronger, more original thoughts.
• Strong understanding of how copy and visual ideas come together to create integrated campaigns.
• Experience working on pitches and high-priority briefs.
• Ability to give constructive feedback and elevate the work of other writers while remaining hands-on.
