EU Copywriter

Location: Frimley, Surrey

Contract type: Permanent / Part-time (0.6FTE)

People Leader: EU Creative Lead

Function: Brand Marketing

Internal Job Title: Senior Associate, Brand Management

Overview:
We are currently seeking a copywriter (who moonlights as a rock star) to join the team roster on a full-time basis. If you know our brands (and it helps if you do), you know that we are known for our voice—not only what we say, but also how we say it. Our brands speak and behave like actual humans, to and for humans. So it should go without saying that you will be both madly creative and deeply empathetic, with a fair dose of wit & charm tossed in for good measure. Beyond that, a stellar attitude, clear communication skills, a diplomatic, team-player approach and strong time management abilities are a must.

**Responsibilities**:

- Work with our EU Creative Director and design leadership on creative messaging and storytelling across our house of brands (method, Ecover)
- Maintain our brands’ unique voices to communicate our missions, values, personality and points of difference
- Partner with cross-functional teams across multiple consumer touchpoints—packaging, naming, digital media, e-comm assets, website, social, in-store + everything in between
- Update and maintain Copy Guide, Fragrance Name Library, Ecomm Copy Library
- Proofread and edit copy

Your superpowers:

- Your communications credentials are one of your biggest strengths; you possess a smart, witty, insightful and inherently human writing style (shown in portfolio), have the aptitude to switch brand voices with ease (we have multiple brands), and the talent to tell a story in 6 words or less.
- You’re a whiz with Word, Power Point, Excel—Adobe Creative Suite.
- You’ve got the aptitude to think strategically and commercially, using your excellent project management experience
- You're a self-starter who isn’t just waiting for instruction, you seek out opportunities and make them happen with passion
- You have a relentless desire to test boundaries (it’s what gets you out of bed in the morning) in making all efforts work harder for the brands, exploring new, different and exciting opportunities along the way
- Ability to anticipate needs, innovate and flourish in a high volume, fast-paced environment.

About us:
We are the people behind method + Ecover. We’ve always done things differently - we’re fearless thinkers, mad scientists and daring designers who believe that making soap leads to brave ideas, bold inventions and beautiful bubbles. We started small but we have big plans to make the world a cleaner, greener, more colourful place. We invite everyone to join us as we pioneer a future where doing business is doing good for all.

Let’s get one thing straight - you’re not coming here to just sell soap, or cleaning products. You’re joining us to move the hearts, souls and minds of others all over the world that see the world differently. We think about cleaning as an act of creative expression, a gesture of rebellion, and, yes, an escape from the normal. We take cleaning seriously - but not ourselves.

Alongside our friends Mrs Meyers and Babyganics, we are collectively known as Lifestyle Brands and are part of the SC Johnson family.

Application:
It’s a big, beautiful, colourful world out there and we should celebrate that. That’s why we’re working hard to be a fully diverse and inclusive place to work. Every day we strive to create an atmosphere where everyone feels valued, listened to, supported and where we can do our best work. Sure, there’s always more that can be done. But together with our team, partners, customers and community, we can make everyone welcome.
