As an Associate Creative Director (Copy), you bring strong writing, sharp ideas, and clear thinking to every brief. You can take an insight and shape it into a compelling concept—then bring it to life across scripts, headlines, and integrated campaign messaging. You're comfortable developing and working with a brand voice, crafting spots, and working fast in a collaborative environment. Experience in automotive is a plus.

You’re a natural partner to art directors and a steady voice in internal and client meetings. You're flexible, focused, and ready to help develop great work that’s both creatively strong and strategically sound.

You Will:

  • Develop copy for integrated campaigns, especially video scripts, digital, social, and paid search
  • Partner with your art counterpart to create big ideas grounded in human insight
  • Craft writing that’s on-voice, clear, and purposeful—across all touchpoints
  • Lead messaging development, ensuring consistency across deliverables
  • Present ideas internally and to clients, with clarity and confidence
  • Work closely with producers and editors to shape video content through final delivery
  • Balance brand storytelling with retail clarity when the work calls for it
  • Collaborate with account and strategy leads to stay aligned with business goals
  • Be open to feedback and flexible with direction—especially in a fast-moving environment

You Have:

  • 6+ years of copywriting experience
  • A portfolio with clear, insight-led thinking and strong writing across formats
  • Experience writing for both brand and retail advertising (automotive is a plus)
  • Strong presentation and communication skills
  • Ability to shift between big-picture concepting and detail-level execution
  • Knowledge of video production and how to write for the edit
  • A sense of how to write for real people—not just clients
