For more information, please visit the.team. Job Overview: THE·TEAM is looking for a Senior Copywriter who lives and breathes social. From trending moments to platform-native storytelling, you instinctively know how to show up in culture in a way that feels relevant, not reactive. You’re as comfortable concepting big social-first ideas as you are crafting sharp, scroll-stopping copy. Whether you’re developing content for TikTok, Instagram, or emerging platforms, you bring a strong point of view and a deep understanding of what makes people engage, share, and care. You're confident both on set and in the weeds—writing, iterating, and optimizing in real time. You embrace new formats and technologies, but your ideas, voice, and attention to craft are what truly set your work apart. This is a permanent role in any city where Wasserman is based, but the Los Angeles and PT hours are preferred. Hybrid in-office 3 days a week, along with additional in-person production as needed.

Requirements

5+ years of agency experience bringing ideas to life.
You can write within an established tone of voice, and create new ones.

You’re a strong collaborator who’s eager to brainstorm with others and gets excited about ideas.
You take pride in your work, communicate early, and stay curious about emerging trends.
You’re a kind, strategic thinker who can roll with the feedback.

Responsibilities

You’ll concept ideas and express them through the written word. This includes scripts, headlines, taglines, and social copy, along with manifestos and idea write-ups that sell the work.
You’ll team up with an art director, designer, or creator to make ideas that excite, inspire, and stand out.
You’ll also be involved at each phase of production and work with directors, producers, editors, and motion designers.
Write copy that strengthens the brand and turns audiences into fans.
Have an idea and possess the ability to explain it in a way that other people can understand.
Concept ideas that are intentional and fresh for the brand and the audience.
Partner with various creative, strategy, and production teams to develop and elevate the work at every step.
