As a Mid-Level Copywriter, you will be an integral part of the team.

**What You'll be Doing**:

- Write, research, and conceptualise creative, innovative content that grows audiences and encourages sharing.
- Write short and long form articles.

- A thorough understanding of the language and needs inherent to writing for FMCG
- Experience of publishing through social media channels (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube) and content management systems (WordPress, HubSpot, Drupal, etc).
- A powerful grasp of how content can play out across multiple mediums.
- Able to use data and insight to inform creative ideas.
- A flair for words.
- Curiosity, creativity, and ambition.
- The ability to think conceptually when needed. Experience working as part of a traditional creative team (designer and copywriter) would be helpful.
- Demonstrated ability to combine and translate complex material from different sources and contexts into stories and content that engage and resonate with target audiences.
- Confident presenting and communicating clearly to other team members and clients.
