Temporary Copywriter

United Masters

United Masters is building a marketplace that connects artists, brands and fans - empowering artists to earn and grow. United Masters has taken the bold step of building a music distribution service that, radically, puts artists first - disrupting the legacy music business by letting up-and-coming artists distribute their music directly to fans through streaming services while maintaining ownership of their master recording rights and up to 100% of royalties.

Through the combination of United Masters' music distribution platform and its deep ties to brands, United Masters enables independent artists and change-makers to grow and earn unlike any other platform.

The United Masters team is made up of musicians, marketers, engineers, and storytellers with backgrounds from You Tube, Sound Cloud, Pandora, Facebook, Uber, Dropbox, Complex, VICE, and more. We work hand in hand with the award-winning creative teams that forge those innovative partnerships at Translation (our in-house creative advertising agency).

We are looking for a versatile, culture-obsessed part-time Copywriter to join our team on a part-time basis.

This role will sit at the intersection of music, tech, and media, supporting both the United Masters brand and the 16

Bars platform.

The ideal candidate has a sharp ear for voice, a deep understanding of music culture, and the ability to pivot between high-level brand storytelling and punchy social communications. You will collaborate closely with the Integrated Marketing, Social and Creative teams to drive engagement across our digital ecosystem.

• Digital & Web: Draft compelling website copy for landing pages and product launches, ensuring a seamless user experience.
• Go-To-Market (GTM): Develop clear, impactful messaging for brand initiatives and new feature rollouts.

• Creative Development: Assist in writing creative treatments and "big idea" pitches for brand partnerships.
• Content Scripts: Script short-form video content (Reels/Tik Toks) that feels authentic, trendy, and on-brand.

• 4-7 years of experience: working on internal and external facing brand copy across digital and social platforms
• Culture-First Mindset: You’re plugged into music and culture, specifically the independent artist landscape.
• Versatile Portfolio: Proven experience writing for tech, music, or lifestyle brands across web, email, and social.
• Adaptability: Ability to switch voices between the professional/empowering tone of United Masters and the editorial/sharp tone of 16
  
  Bars.
• Efficiency: Capable of managing multiple projects under tight deadlines without sacrificing quality.
• Collaboration: A team player who can take feedback from integrated marketing leads and turn it into polished prose.

• We Get on the Plane — Entrepreneurial spirit means fully committing to the journey not just having the idea.
• We Expect Challenge + Respect — We constantly challenge each other and the work to reach excellence, always with respect.
• We Are Defined by Our Resilience — We stay resourceful, fail fast, keep getting better, and never quit on our mission or our team.
• We Pursue Answers Before the Question Has to Be Asked — We understand our customers so well that we anticipate what they need before they ask.
• We Run Towards Darkness — We have the courage to work through uncertainty rather than settling for an easier, inferior plan.
• We Know What We Don't Know — We bring confidence in what we do know, and honesty about what we don't.
