Droga5 Senior Social Copywriter
About The Position
Droga5 is looking for a Senior Social Creative with a Copy focus to bring ideas to life through words — and then actually make those words exist in the world. This isn't a role for someone who hands off concepts and waits. You are conceptual as well as executional. Your big ideas lead and your craft delivers. You are a maker who writes, captions, scripts, and crafts copy that feels native to a feed, authentic to a brand, and impossible to scroll past. You'll work across campaigns and always-on social for iconic brands, embedded in a multidisciplinary team of creatives, strategists, producers, and designers who move fast and care deeply about culture.
Requirements
- 5+ years of experience in a creative role with a copy focus, at an agency or in-house brand team with a strong social practice
- A portfolio that proves you can concept, write, and make — not just ideate
Nice To Haves
- Deep fluency in TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and emerging platform formats
- Ability to write across registers: funny, sincere, provocative, informational — whatever the brand and moment demand
- Experience scripting and producing social video content, including self-directed lo-fi shoots
- A collaborative spirit and comfort working in cross-functional teams at speed
- Genuine curiosity about culture — you're always online, always noticing, always inspired
- Experience with generative AI tools for ideation and content creation is a plus
Responsibilities
- Generate sharp, original ideas for social content — from reactive moments to hero campaign executions — rooted in cultural insight and platform-native thinking
- Develop concepts across formats: short-form video, carousels, stories, comment-section plays, influencer briefs, and beyond
- Push creative beyond the safe and expected; bring a genuine POV to every brief
- Collaborate closely with design, strategy, and production to develop ideas that are as strong visually as they are conceptually
- Write copy across all social formats and platforms — captions, scripts, on-screen text, voiceover, headlines, influencer talking points
- Script and produce short-form video content, from concept through edit, with a deep understanding of what works natively on TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube
- Be hands-on: shoot, record, edit, and publish content when the moment calls for it — lo-fi, fast, and real
- Develop brand voice guidelines and copy frameworks that ensure consistency across platforms and contributors
- Stay deeply current with language, formats, and humor that resonate on each platform
- Build and maintain an intimate understanding of each client's brand voice, visual identity, and audience
- Monitor cultural trends, platform shifts, and internet moments to identify reactive and proactive creative opportunities
- Contribute to creative presentations and thought leadership that help clients understand the power of social-first thinking
Benefits
- medical, dental, vision, life, and long-term disability coverage
- a 401(k) plan
- bonus opportunities
- paid holidays
- paid time off
