Copywriter

Dunn&Co. has an immediate opening for a Copywriter. We are only looking for local talent, or those willing to relocate.

First and foremost, this copywriter must have 2+ years experience working at an advertising or marketing agency.

This copywriter recognizes every assignment as an opportunity to challenge the status quo and disrupt the industry.

This copywriter also recognizes every assignment needs to accomplish client goals and have measurable ROI.

This copywriter understands the two are not mutually exclusive.

This copywriter is a team player. He/she is comfortable in brainstorms and gracious working with others – not just fellow creatives.

This copywriter recognizes he/she still has things to learn in a constantly transforming industry.

The copywriter should demonstrate an ability to elevate every assignment they’re on; from social copy to a film campaign. He/she should be able to inspire those around them and push the status quo of mediocrity that plagues the industry.

This copywriter should not be an ass or arrive at the agency with suitcases filled with ego.

This copywriter should be able to think in big, provocative ideas, but be just as comfortable writing a sales aid – whatever the team needs. Your portfolio should reflect work with elegance and intelligence.

The successful candidate is expected to:

• Collaborate with Dunn&Co. account teams, clients, creative directors, art directors, copywriters, cinematographers and designers to concept campaigns, develop brand strategies and write effective, engaging copy for our clients.
• Push yourself and your colleagues to produce award-winning, results-oriented work.
• Be comfortable and confident working on a wide variety of online and offline media, including media that hasn’t been invented yet.
• Intelligently incorporate client and account team feedback, comments and changes while adhering to timelines, due dates and goals without getting all huffy.
• Willing to work on all assignments, not just the ones that personally excite you. In other words, no divas or crusaders.

The successful candidate must:

• Have 2+ years agency copywriting experience. No exceptions.
• If you look at our website, you’ll see the kind of work we produce. If your style fits in with what you see, we’d like to talk to you.
• Be able to present, persuade and inspire, starting with your first email to us.
• Hold a Bachelor’s degree (or have attended ad school) with a concentration in advertising, communications or journalism. Or just a great portfolio, if school wasn’t your cuppa’ tea.
• Pay strong attention to detail, schedule management, version control and other skills usually not attributed to creative people.
• Multi-task in a fast-paced environment while functioning as a member of a highly collaborative team.

Salary Range: $52,000-$65,000 depending on experience and talent.

There are many things that make Dunn&Co an awesome place to work, but we think these are worth a special mention:

• A hybrid office/remote culture – We work Mondays and Fridays from home and Tuesday through Thursday in office.
• Paid time off between Christmas and New Year
• 13 other annual holidays
• Work away time – the freedom to work from anywhere in the world for two weeks per year
