About this role:

We are looking for a skilled Copywriter who is just as enthusiastic about creating compelling stories as they are about writing persuasive content that drives results. Our ideal candidate is a strong technical writer who can present complicated topics in a clear and focused way while also ensuring brand consistency and alignment to campaign objectives. The Copywriter will play a key role in creating effective, user-focused communications to support and grow UZURV’s range of mobile apps and audiences. Additionally, they will be responsible for:

• Developing and executing concepts and messaging for program launches, app releases, nurture campaigns, re-engagement strategies, product announcements, events, customer surveys, etc.
• Crafting clear, concise copy across various mediums, including email, web, SMS, video, print, social, and more.
• Teaming up with marketing and app designers to communicate a cohesive brand voice, ensuring consistency and alignment with UZURV’s brand values and objectives.
• Collaborating with the marketing team to analyze campaign performance, A/B test copy, and continuously refine messaging for maximum effectiveness.
• Managing multiple projects simultaneously, maintaining high standards for quality and relevance.

We are excited about you because:

• You have at least 5 years of full-time experience employed as a staff or freelance marketing/content writer.
• You have a solid portfolio of professional, in-market work (not student work - we love that too… just need more for this role). A portfolio is required for review during interviews.
• 4-year college degree
• You are familiar with marketing automation platforms (Hubspot, Pardot, Marketo) and project management software (Monday.com is a plus!)
• You are a quick study, forever curious and skilled in taking big ideas and breaking them down into simple, easy-to-follow- messaging.
• You are a project management pro and organization is your superpower. You can effectively switch gears and manage competing priorities quickly.
• You possess a constructive mindset, positive attitude, and teamwork are required.
• You are a strategic problem solver with a solid understanding of how to bridge the gap between brand and direct response – all in a way that is thoughtful, compelling, and authentic.
• You are wired to find solutions and collaborate well with others, especially under pressure. We’re not kidding. We build great stuff. It’s rewarding but not easy.
