About the role

Great creative work starts with a great idea, and a great idea starts with words. As Copywriter, you are one half of a creative team, working in partnership with an Art Director to generate ideas that are genuinely original, strategically grounded, and built to work across every channel the brand operates in.


This is not a production writing role. Ideation is the core of the job. You will spend a significant portion of your time in creative development – responding to briefs, generating concepts, exploring territories, and refining ideas until they are strong enough to present with conviction. The writing that follows should feel inevitable: the right words, in the right voice, doing exactly what the idea needs them to do.


You will report to the Principal Creative and work within a team of creative people who hold each other to a high standard. You will be expected to contribute ideas beyond your own briefs, push back on thinking that isn’t good enough, and always ask whether the work could be braver, simpler, or more human.

What you’ll be doing

Ideation & concept development

  • Work in creative partnership with an Art Director to develop integrated campaign ideas where the concept drives both the words and the visual thinking equally
  • Create bold, scalable creative ideas, challenge briefs constructively, and bring fresh, strategic thinking that drives stronger, more effective work across every channel.

Copy craft & tone of voice

  • Craft compelling, brand-defining copy across all formats, using creativity, precision, and editorial judgement to create impactful communications that resonate with audiences.

Strategic understanding

  • Read and interrogate briefs critically – understand what the business problem really is, not just what has been asked for
  • Create audience-focused, culturally relevant ideas and channel-specific content, grounded in brand understanding, category insight, and creative rigour.

Collaboration & creative partnership

  • Work in genuine creative partnership with your Art Director and contribute ideas and creative thinking in team sessions beyond your own briefs 
  • Collaborates seamlessly with strategists, creatives, and production partners to develop insight-led ideas and deliver high-quality, integrated creative work.

Presenting & selling work

  • Communicate and present creative ideas with confidence, clarity, and influence, building stakeholder trust and securing buy-in through strong rationale and collaborative engagement.

Brand ownership & quality

  • Take ownership of copy quality and brand integrity, ensuring all content is accurate, consistent, on-brand, and aligned to the defined tone of voice.
  • Ensure final copy is proofread, approved, and signed off correctly before it goes to production or market

Creative curiosity & innovation

  • Stay curious and culturally aware, embracing emerging trends, technologies and creative thinking to inspire innovative, impactful work.

Essential Skills / Experience

  • Demonstratable experience as a Copywriter within an advertising agency, creative studio, or in-house creative team
  • Strong portfolio demonstrating both conceptual thinking and copy craft across multiple channels and formats
  • Proven ability to generate integrated campaign ideas, not just individual executions
  • Experience writing across TV, digital, social, print, OOH, CRM, retail, and experiential
  • Experience working in a creative partnership with an Art Director
  • Confident presenter of creative work to stakeholders at all levels
  • Background working on major consumer brands with a strong, defined tone of voice

Desirable Skills / Experience

  • Experience in telecoms, technology, or complex B2C categories
  • Award-winning or industry-recognised creative work (D&AD, Cannes, The Drum, Creative Circle etc.)
  • Experience writing scripts for TV or digital video production
  • Previous in-house agency or brand-side creative experience
