Saylor seeks a Canada-based innovative, sharp part-time contract Copywriter with experience in social media copywriting, content strategy, and creative development to join the Social team. The ideal candidate will be exceedingly creative, collaborative, strategic, and obsessed with social media and marketing trends. Working across organic and paid social, this role will support the Social, Editorial, and Design teams in shaping the creative efforts on pitches, social content, and brand and marketing campaigns.

This person will be responsible for building tone and voice for projects and pitches, ideating content, developing and writing concepts, copy editing decks and content, and writing scripts and social copy.

The Copywriter will bring a confident, strong and studied creative perspective from a language-first point of view to all the work they do. They will collaborate across all teams at Saylor — partnering with Strategy, Accounts, Editorial, and Design to elevate individual assets and entire campaigns. Throughout, you’ll ensure all creative aligns with strategy and brand voice through copy, design, and execution.

Throughout, they’ll develop ideas, scripts, and copy that resonate authentically with Canadian audiences. They should have a strong understanding of cultural nuances and emerging trends that influence how social content is received in the Canada market, ensuring creative feels locally relevant without sacrificing a cohesive brand voice.

A seemingly bottomless pit of fresh ideas, you have a deep well of references and experiences to pull from and you always have your thumb on the pulse of what’s clicking with audiences on social media. You’re a natural wordsmith who can adapt to various tones and brand voices, finding unique ways for copy to stand out and take up meaningful space.

You’re not afraid to share your ideas in a room — whether it’s with internal teams or clients — and you enthusiastically build up and nurture your teammate’s ideas. Flexibility and a positive attitude come naturally to you, and you create open and symbiotic environments conducive to generating ideas without ego or shallow judgement. Curiosity, kindness, empathy, and playfulness are core tenets that you value and freely dispense.

You feel confident and comfortable with the intricacies of entertainment marketing, with experience supporting or guiding high-profile creative projects from ideation to execution. You love a pitch deck and working with Creative, Strategy, and Accounts to create a cohesive, unique campaign strategy. You feel secure talking with clients about their vision and needs, offering creative solutions that make them want to come back for more best-in-class campaigns.

You may have been any of the following in your career: a social media manager with strong audience knowledge, a well-rounded copywriter who always had kick-ass ideas, a community manager who found fresh ways to connect to fandoms, a lingo-obsessed creative producer who was always one step ahead with big ideas or some combination of it all!
