work with us
We currently have the following opportunities available at Power Creative:
Copywriter
We’ve been busy. Really busy. So we’re adding to our copy arsenal.
The lowdown:
- You need 3-5 years agency experience. Sorry, noobs.
- Must love long format. We’re looking for someone who eats up B2B web writing, brochures, catalogs. Things like that.
- You gotta be quick. Things move very fast around here, so we need somebody who can churn and burn with the best of ‘em.
- Independent. You don’t need someone to hold your hand for every project.
- Plays nice. The copy department is full of fun-loving people, so don’t be rude. If you want to bring in donuts every Friday, well, that would be just dandy.
If this sounds like you, shoot your resumé and some examples of your work to lrobinson@powercreative.com. If we think you’re a good fit, we’ll schedule an interview.
