COPYWRITER: FULL-SERVICE ADVERTISING AGENCY
Copywriter – Creative (Integrated)
Western Cape
Wordsmiths where you at? We have a superb, on-site opportunity for a sharp, versatile Junior or Mid Copywriter to join the friendly, high-energy team at a bustling full-service advertising agency in Cape Town.
The agency works Through-The-Line (TTL), so you’ll be ideating and writing for everything from social media and digital campaigns to traditional print, video scripts and long-form content. The ideal candidate is someone who can switch seamlessly between all media and markets. We are looking for an integrated creative who isn’t just a "writer" – you are a thinker and a problem-solver.
The agency boasts an incredibly diverse client base, so you’ll never get bored.
If you are conceptually minded and craft-driven this is a marvellous opportunity to join a friendly team who value independence and will give you the space to run with your own ideas as you grow within the agency. Apply today.
Responsibilities
- Ideation: Brainstorming fresh, creative concepts that work across multiple channels.
- Writing: Crafting clean, compelling, and brand-accurate copy for a wide range of audiences.
- Adaptability: Switching "voices" seamlessly between different industries and platforms.
- Independent Execution: Taking ownership of tasks and seeing them through once you’ve mastered our internal processes and client nuances.
- Collaboration: Working closely with our teams to hit the mark every time and going home (at a decent time) with a feeling of accomplishment.
Requirements
The successful candidate must have/be:
- Relevant tertiary qualification from AAA, Red & Yellow or Vega.
- 2-3 years’ traditional through the line advertising agency experience.
- Logical & Creative: You have the flair for a great headline, but the logic to ensure the message makes sense for the business.
- AI-Fluent: You don’t see AI as a threat; you see it as a superpower. Experience using ChatGPT and Gemini to speed up research and refine drafts is highly recommended.
- A Team Player: You’re ready to roll up your sleeves and help the team, but you’re equally comfortable flying solo when the mission is clear.
- Curious: You’re genuinely interested in learning about businesses you never knew existed.
Please submit a relevant portfolio along with your CV on application.
If you don’t have the relevant experience required for this role, please consider your application unsuccessful.
