Work directly with Creative Directors and other Copywriters to grow channels such as Facebook, YouTube, Google Display Network, and more. Your responsibilities will range from creating new advertisements that increase performance, to versioning past, successful ads in new markets and tests. We are a response-driven marketing team that also cares deeply about outside-the-box creativity to push the brand forward. We are seeking an experienced copywriter who is passionate about raising the performance bar, as well as someone who is comfortable testing new ideas to enhance both response rates and brand.
