Copywriter - Creative; midweight

The Role:

(3 Days In Office)

Writing for an array of touchpoints, from in store to email, editorial and homepage, you’ll be New Look’s go-to wordsmith, making sure our fun, feel-good tone of voice is evident at every turn. You’ll be coming up with lots of creative ideas, turning your pen (or keyboard) into a host of briefs to support our Brand, Trade, Creative and Social teams.

In other words, you’ll be writing a lot! We’re looking for someone who’s as comfortable concepting a seasonal narrative as they are writing a short and snappy caption for social. You’ll be joining a passionate, creative Copy & Content team, so the perfect candidate will have lots of ideas, a can‑do attitude and a team spirit. In turn, we offer a competitive salary, a focus on development and a truly inspiring environment to work in – oh, and not forgetting the discount and 4pm finishes on a Friday.
