Point 6 is looking for a midweight copywriter to join its expanding team and contribute to its ongoing success.
A little bit about us: we're an integrated design and branding agency based in West London. We act as a perceptive partner for both B2B and B2C clients, helping them conceptualise and plan campaigns, communicate their complex offerings through incisive, impactful marketing materials, and produce research-led insight pieces. We prefer to work with businesses who are dedicated to making a positive impact in their sector and on the lives they influence.
This is an amazing opportunity for a commercially focused and experienced writer looking to grow their career in a creative, friendly, collaborative and highly respected agency.
The role
The role will involve learning about our clients' worlds and writing persuasively about them. On any given day you may find yourself writing about how smart technology benefits shoppers, the benefits of systems integration via the IoT, or identifying the key selling points of a connected baby monitor.
Your writing will take the form of social posts, websites, online thought pieces, presentations, animation scripts, brochures and more. You'll work with complex — often technical — source material to create clear and engaging on-brand content for a wide range of digital and print campaign materials.
Working in a motivated and close-knit team of talented creatives, designers and production experts, you'll also learn to play a role within our agency team of brand guardians — often supporting non-native English speakers in our clients' teams with guidance on copy.
The candidate
You will be a self-motivated and versatile copywriter who will thrive in what is an empowering and, at times, self-managing role. You'll be expected to work closely with our other writers, as well as the rest of our highly experienced team.
You'll be capable of balancing multiple projects and deadlines, and proactively managing your own time. A desire to write for a professional audience is essential, as is an appetite for learning how to master succinct, on-brand communications within well-defined guidelines. You'll be client-friendly and be happy to discuss projects with clients both on Zoom/Teams and face-to-face.
Requirements
· Educated to degree level or equivalent (preferably in a communications-related discipline)
· Proven writing ability — commercial writing experience in an agency or in-house role is highly preferred
· A keen eye for detail and a strong understanding of grammar
· Proficiency with Microsoft Office, particularly Word and PowerPoint
· The ability to work independently and within a team
· Strong communication skills are essential — face-to-face, over Zoom/Teams, and via email
· Experience of writing in US English is an advantage, but not essential
Hybrid working
All Point 6 employees are required to attend a mandatory office day on Thursdays. For the rest of the week, the choice is yours: you may work from home or the office. Please note, whilst Thursday is the only mandatory day, you may be required to attend the office for some meetings or specific project work on other days. In this case, you will be given fair notice.
Starting salary: £32,000
