This role reports directly to the Creative Director of Copy for Whole Foods Market. We're on the quest for a Copywriter who is proficient in three areas: Conceptual and strategic thinking Simplifying complex ideas into short, crisp, clear messaging Food writing (digital, signage, UI) A unicorn? Perhaps. But you're a highly charged and curious leader who is skilled in managing tentpole projects and multi brands that require all three skills. You. Are. Customer. Obsessed. Equally important, you're adaptable, proactive, and comfortable with changing priorities. "Collaboration" is your middle name. Beyond that, you're passionate about selling your ideas (and defending them) across the company. Lastly, you must have an advertising portfolio of blow-me-away writing. Not the stuffy, white tablecloth kind of writing, but rather the approachable, next-door neighbor writing that showcases your love for food.
