Apply for this role
We are looking for a creative and proactive Content Writer / Specialist with a proven track record of crafting strategically sound B2B content solutions. Your main role will be to create compelling content that inspires, informs and engages – but you’ll also get the opportunity to get stuck into more complex briefs and pitches, working closely with our other talented teams.
Responsibilities and duties
- Research, structure, and craft compelling written content to meet the client’s brief and planned output format (e.g. website, whitepaper, article, etc.).
- Drive the creation of smaller-scale strategic content solutions (e.g. email flows, social campaigns, landing pages, etc.)
- Work closely with our senior strategists and wider project teams and play a key role in supporting the development of more complex, larger-scale strategic content solutions.
- Use your specialist content knowledge and experience to actively contribute to team ideation sessions and, when appropriate, share content ideas and strategies with clients.
- Provide content input for new business pitches, including value propositions and messaging frameworks, and creating and editing content for presentations.
- Liaise with our Client Services team to ensure that all content meets both the client’s expectations and the company’s brand guidelines.
- Take ownership of multiple tasks, projects, and priorities to ensure they are all delivered on time and to the highest possible standard.
- Support best practices in content development by engaging in content research activities, helping to inform and guide audience profiling and content strategy.
- Stay up to date and informed on content and content optimisation trends (including SEO and GEO) and apply this knowledge to continually improve outcomes.
- Look for opportunities to leverage AI and other emerging technologies to improve project workflows, enhance outputs, and drive better business efficiencies.
Desired skills
- 3-4 years previous agency or in-house experience, within a creative or digital environment, and proven experience of delivering multiple content projects to tight timescales.
- Confidence in communicating ideas and delivering compelling content across digital channels and print.
- Fully developed research skills, an enquiring mind, and a natural curiosity to find out and absorb information about unfamiliar topics, products, or markets.
- The ability to combine strategic thinking with tactical creativity and a flair to make complex propositions simple and easy to understand.
- An excellent grasp of the English language, including exceptional spelling, grammar, and punctuation, is essential.
- Knowledge of working within the parameters of large corporate tone of voice guidelines to create campaign content that can be easily localised for different markets.
- A positive and proactive ‘can-do attitude’, plus the ability to work quickly under pressure, with constant attention to detail, whilst always striving to produce the highest standard of work.
- Proficiency in Microsoft Office applications – Teams, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.
- Experience of content management systems, analytics tools, and AI technology is a plus.
