What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Copywriter position at Argus?
We are looking for a Senior Copywriter with a book full of gems, a heart full of gold, and between 5-10 years of agency experience.
You’ve won awards. You want to win more.
You know that 5 ideas is fine, but 10 is totally better. Your brain doesn’t have an off switch. You think of ideas at your desk, during dinner, and everywhere in between.
You can write a headline. Smart. Clever. Smart-clever. Funny. Profound. Prophetic. You make your audience laugh. You make them cry. You make them change their behavior.
You’ve done a bunch of production. You can handle a record or a shoot. No big deal.
You can present, but it’d be better if you love presenting. And while we’re at it, you like your clients. You genuinely like them. You know that account management isn’t only up to the account people. You know the names of your clients’ kids, plus the grade they’re in, and the sports and instruments they play. You know all that because you know relationships are the key to selling good work.
Speaking of relationships, you build them with your coworkers. You are nice. You are fun. You know it’s not just your job to write. You need to shake hands, slap backs, tell jokes. You need to make work fun for everyone.
Speaking of work. Your grandparents call it work ethic. You have it. You don’t make excuses, you make ideas. If it wasn’t right the first time, you relish the opportunity to make it better. Sometimes that takes all night. Sometimes it doesn’t. But you are driven to make your idea the best it can be.
Speaking of best, that’s what we do here at Argus. We introduce the best ad people to world bettering organizations. You’re good enough to sell Doritos, but you’d rather sell hope, and change, and positivity.
If this sounds like you, let’s talk.
