Jr. Digital Storyteller (Jr. Copywriter)
About The Position
We’re seeking a curious, culturally fluent Junior Copywriter who can help turn insights into big, bold ideas; and those ideas into compelling stories across platforms. This role is ideal for an emerging creative who thinks beyond headlines and captions. You should be energized by culture, deeply engaged with social media, and constantly paying attention to what Gen Z is watching, sharing, talking about, and moving on from. You’ll contribute to campaigns across social, digital, experiential, and TV/OLV, helping develop concepts that are culturally relevant, visually inspiring, and built for how audiences engage today. You’ll work closely with art directors, designers, strategists and account teams to develop ideas from the initial brief through final execution. The right candidate can contribute original thinking, communicate ideas clearly, manage several assignments at once, and use AI and emerging creative tools to rapidly explore and bring concepts to life.
