Torpedo is an award-winning creative agency based near Oxford. But you could be based pretty much anywhere.

Your thing will be writing copy that engages the target audience and helps our clients build meaningful relationships with their customers. 

You’ll relish the opportunity to create original work, the challenge of getting stuck into a creative brief, and the chance to create engaging copy for campaigns, content and marketing communications. You’ll tell everyone awards don’t matter, but you’ll be quietly over the moon when your work wins one.

• Support client brand strategy projects by engaging in research such as target audience interviews and messaging workshops and developing tone-of-voice guidelines.
• Assist with new business pitches and creating copy content for presentations.
• Take responsibility for multiple copywriting projects to ensure they are all delivered on time and to the highest standard.

• Excellent grasp of the English language is essential, including exceptional spelling, grammar and punctuation.
• Confidence in communicating ideas and delivering compelling copy content across print, digital and social media. 
• Well-developed research skills, an enquiring mind and a natural curiosity to find out and absorb information about unfamiliar topics, products or markets to become an expert quickly.
• The ability to make complex propositions simple and easy to understand.
• Knowledge of working within the parameters of corporate tone-of-voice guidelines to create campaign copy that can be easily localised for other language markets. 
• Experience in creating consistent and distinctive copy styles for each communication and the ability to revise or redevelop existing campaign copy.

Company Benefits

We like to look after our team and provide a lot of benefits. This is all the normal stuff we offer but, with the pandemic going on, some of these have been put on the back-burner for a while for safety reasons. We’re bringing it all back now – we’ve missed our parties and the pick ‘n’ mix!
