Copywriter

Role Description 

Mill’s Creative Team is looking for a copywriter with fluency across most of the marketing ecosystem. Channels such as web, email, social, and print will be your daily bread — but there will also be opportunities to flex into conceptual work if you’re hoping to write a thumb-stopping video or a catchy campaign hook. Agency experience is preferred. Startup savviness is desired. You’ll need an ear for flexible, captivating, clear-as-day prose — and the ability to explain how it’s built. An understanding of messaging hierarchies and their strategic application across consumer journeys is essential. This job requires the ability to contribute big ideas and to execute small details with equal enthusiasm. Finally, this company wants to help save the planet — so you should too. 

Responsibilities

• Collaborate with diverse cross-functional partners and stakeholders, building creative relationships that drive the work forward
• Distill complex information into accessible, engaging language
• Write copy for diverse channels, platforms, and placements with a clear understanding of, and point of view on, the strategic brief
• Present work for review with attention to both its meaning and its musicality 
• Receive, interpret, and integrate feedback from creative leads and cross-functional stakeholders — while preserving the work’s quality and clarity
• Support creative leads in the development of, and iteration on, seasonal and brand-defining campaigns
• Assist creative leads in the continued development of Mill’s brand style guide, best practices, and agency-partner guardrails for copy execution across all channels 

Qualifications

• 5+ years of experience as a copywriter with an agency or prominent brand
• Expertise in Google Docs and Figma
• Portfolio showcasing long-form, short-form, and conceptual work
• Familiarity with the Associated Press Stylebook and Chicago Manual of Style
• Positive, collaborative attitude and drive
• Kindness and empathy
• Healthy combo of fear and hope in the face of climate change
• A high tolerance for slack-channel proliferation

The estimated base salary range for this position is $126k to $151k, which does not include the value of benefits or a potential equity grant. A wide range of factors are considered in making compensation decisions, including but not limited to skill sets, market conditions, experience and training, licensure and certifications, and business and organizational needs. At Mill, it is not typical for an individual to be hired at or near the top of the range for their role.
