Type: Freelance, 40 hrs/week

Start: Interviewing now

Length: 3+ month contract

Location: Hybrid San Francisco + Remote

Compensation: Up to $65/hr (DOE)

A leading in-house creative studio is hiring a Senior Copywriter to bring brand voice to life across social platforms. You’ll concept and craft sharp, platform-native copy for everything from TikTok trends to major campaign moments. If you’re fluent in internet culture, instinctively know what hits online, and love pairing words with visuals - this is for you.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Write scripts, captions, and on-screen text across all major social platforms

• Concept daily social content in collaboration with designers and channel leads

• Bring campaign ideas to life through platform-first copy

• Stay ahead of trends, platform updates, and audience behavior

• Translate insights and listening data into high-impact creative ideas

• Maintain consistent brand voice across formats and touchpoints

• Be hands-on: ideating, editing, and even jumping in front of the camera if needed

• Collaborate with Influencer and Brand teams to sharpen messaging

Must-Haves (Don’t Apply Without These)

• 5+ years of copywriting experience, with a strong focus on organic social

• A standout portfolio of social-first content for major brands

• Expert-level writing skills with tone, clarity, and cultural fluency

• Experience writing for IG, TikTok, X, and emerging platforms

• Strong understanding of what resonates online — and why

• Ability to work fast, pivot quickly, and ideate independently

You’ll Stand Out If You…

• Have been the voice of a high-profile brand on social

• Are a digital native with trend-savvy instincts

• Know how to write for performance and engagement

• Can create strong work without large budgets or heavy production

• Bring a POV, a gut instinct, and sharp writing to every brainstorm

This is a 40-hour/week, 3+month freelance role with the potential to extend and ultimately convert to full-time for the right fit.
