Copywriter, Events & Experiences Creative

Salesforce•Chicago, IL

About The Position

Salesforce is looking for a sharp, curious, and emotionally-intelligent Copywriter to join our Events & Experiences Creative team. This is a role for someone who understands that words aren't just labels — they're the invisible architecture that holds an experience together. You may or may not have written for live events before, but what matters most is your instinct for narrative: how a headline on a banner connects to a kiosk interaction, which connects to a stage moment, which connects to a post-show email — and how all of it adds up to something a person actually feels. You know how to translate complex technology into copy that's deeply human and emotionally resonant. You know that telling a product story isn't about features — it's about what those features make possible. At Salesforce, our events are some of the largest and most ambitious brand expressions in the world. You'll write copy that lives across the full ecosystem — environmental, digital, experiential, editorial — and you'll do it with clarity, creativity, and a strong point of view.

Requirements

3–5 years of copywriting experience, ideally with some exposure to brand, experiential, or integrated marketing contexts
A portfolio that demonstrates narrative range — copy that builds across touchpoints, not just isolated headlines
Proven ability to make complex technology or B2B subject matter feel simple, human, and compelling
Strong understanding of brand voice and how to apply it consistently across diverse formats and surfaces
Experience working within cross-functional creative teams — comfortable collaborating with designers and taking direction from creative leads
Excellent editorial instincts: grammar, rhythm, clarity, and economy of language
Ability to work across multiple projects and deadlines simultaneously without losing creative quality

Nice To Haves

Events or experiential writing experience is a plus, but not required — we'll teach you the canvas if you bring the craft

Responsibilities

Write copy across the full spectrum of event touchpoints — environmental graphics, signage, digital screens, activations, stage content, CTAs, wayfinding, social, and more
Build and maintain narrative coherence across an ecosystem of copy — ensuring every word, in every context, ladders up to a unified story
Translate product and technology messaging into copy that feels human, accessible, and emotionally resonant — without sacrificing accuracy
Collaborate closely with designers, creative directors, strategists, and producers to bring concepts to life through language
Write for a range of voices and formats — from bold, punchy headline copy to longer editorial and experiential storytelling
Participate in creative concepting and ideation sessions, contributing a strong copy perspective from the start
Ensure copy is consistent with Salesforce brand voice and tone across all outputs
Manage multiple projects simultaneously across pods, meeting deadlines in a fast-paced event environment
Incorporate feedback graciously and iterate quickly — balancing creative conviction with collaborative flexibility
