About The Position

As a Sr Copywriter, you’re still a proactive idea machine that’s hungry to learn. But now you’re a more experienced, proactive idea machine that’s hungry to learn even more. There’s a big difference. You’ve proven yourself as a trusted resource within the creative department. You can get to good ideas FAST. And you always bring LOTS OF IDEAS. You never run out of them. You’re the embodiment of “What’s Possible Thinking.” Client feedback doesn’t get you down. Killed ideas don’t get you down. You can crank out round after round, comp after comp, headline after headline… because sometimes, well, that’s the job. You’re comfortable juggling multiple projects at the same time. But when things get a little too crazy, you know when to ask for help. You don’t sit around waiting for feedback or to be told what to do — you’re proactive, and you make things happen. You’re able to do all this because you’re getting very good at managing your time.
