Have you got an eye for detail, proofreading work, checking for inconsistency in tone of voice and ensuring work remains on-brand?
If you answered "yes" we want to speak to you today.
Please be aware we need someone initially for just 2-3 days a week. Also within that the day rate is fixed at £250-£375 a day DOE.
What are we looking for?
We're looking for a freelance copywriting superstar who lives and breathes it! From writing blogs, social posts, thought-leadership pieces, web copy, white-papers, you name it, we do it! (This is a truly varied copywriting role)
This is not a role for someone who delegates the "doing". You'll be deeply involved in the work itself, working closely with wider creatives, strategists and the client-facing team. With a natural ability for mastering a brand tone of voice, an exceptional eye for detail and quality assurance, you are the type of person who can take full ownership of copy projects fully end-to-end.
What you’ll be doing?
You will work across a very broad client-base; whether its B2B writing for banking or financial services (which is definitely needed in this role), or potentially some additional work on B2C copywriting tasks with FMCG, Technology, Health, Retail or other clients... (we work across all sectors)
