About the Role
This Copywriter is an exceptional, meticulous, and organized writer responsible for crafting engaging and informative narratives around our products each season. From an email subject line to a product description, copy will deftly sell the dream while reinforcing craftsmanship and tapping into current trends. Must be equally obsessed with products and words, recognizing that every dress, bag, shoe, and necklace has a story to tell.
The ideal candidate will have the ability to understand and speak with authority about product trends, be curious about uncovering design details and techniques, juggle multiple deadlines, and thrive collaborating with creative, marketing, and merchandising teams.
Responsibilities
- Bring seasonal inspiration and collections to life through compelling product stories, driving end-to-end copy across all channels after viewing the collection firsthand in the showroom (emails, site, product descriptions, lookbooks).
- Scale and adapt messaging, from high-level inspiration to detailed design and style notes, across all global markets and platforms.
- Partner closely with local and global marketing teams to ensure messaging is relevant to respective regions, considering translations and cultural nuances.
- Craft compelling and original messaging around exclusive and capsule collections and product descriptions, providing elevated, clear, and accurate information for customers.
- Create thoughtful and persuasive gift guides for all holidays, finding new ways to surprise and delight the customer.
- Maintain a mindset of elevated yet unpretentious luxury and social-first content. Act as a steward for our brand, protecting and maintaining its essence through copy tone.
- Ensure marketing copy does not sound like "marketing speak."
- Infuse our brand mission and purpose of empowering women to build awareness and community.
- Bring an informed point of view and create healthy dialogue with partners who brief in projects. Challenge the status quo and bring outside thinking to marketing projects.
- Relentlessly self-edit, checking for context, spelling, syntax, and tone.
- Stay on top of emerging trends, understand insights gleaned from data, and apply them to projects.
- Present work in creative reviews, manage ongoing feedback, update and pivot based on business needs, intake a high volume of requests, and manage tight deadlines.
Requirements
- BA or relevant experience.
- 5+ years of experience writing, editing, and honing brand voice, with a deep knowledge of luxury fashion and retail brands.
- Strong digital fluency.
- Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite, Keynote, and user-friendly content management systems.
Qualifications
- Exceptional writing and editing skills with a talent for innovative brainstorming.
- A visual editor who knows how to package stories and franchises.
- Critical thinker and creative problem-solver.
- Highly collaborative with a strong ability to influence stakeholders.
- Approach every project, no matter how big or small, with enthusiasm.
- Strong speaker, presenter, and communicator.
- Comfortable in a fast-paced environment, able to pivot quickly and adeptly.
