Junior Copywriter
We are Jones Knowles Ritchie
We’re a design-led creative company building brands for scale, disruption and good.
Founded in 1990 and proudly independent, we work for some of the most famous brands in the world out of our studios in New York, London, Singapore and Shanghai.
The Role
We're looking for a Junior Copywriter to work hand-in-hand with our Junior Art Director, as well as our team of designers and strategists. You will be responsible for shaping and enhancing the voice of one of our most well-beloved brands, conceptualising and designing content for the web against client and internal briefs, producing great work to be sent out into the digital world. Working in a team of creative talent, you'll be developing work that is consistently sound, of excellent caliber and on brief to the client needs.
You'll be an adept wordsmith ready to take on any challenge - from tone of voice to naming, campaigns to script-writing, with the occasional epic poem or snappy one-liners. Leveraging your understanding of popular culture, you'll help develop ideas and creative work that will be relevant to audiences and be able to capture the spirit of an idea in your words. You'll need to bring a love of brands, an endlessly curious mind, a killer work-ethic, and your A-Game.
Whilst not a requirement, we will happily welcome dual applications from a Junior Artworker/Copywriter duo!
