Fancy kickstarting your career by joining a team of best-in-class marketers to elevate your career to the next level?

**What your responsibilities will be**:

- Writing content for clients from a range of different industries and sectors - including blog posts, how-to guides, product descriptions, category pages, case studies, and FAQ pages.
- Writing according to briefs written by our in-house team of content strategists.
- Following the tone of voice and brand guidelines provided by clients to ensure that written content matches their communication style and resonates with their core identity.
- Writing both long
- and short-form content for a variety of functions to support client communications at different stages of the sales funnel - persuading, informing, entertaining, generating awareness, educating, promoting etc. (and working to develop an awareness of the intricacies between each function and how writing styles need to adapt accordingly to be effective).
- Proofreading content that other writers within the agency have produced - double checking for spelling or grammatical errors as well as ensuring that the overall tone and messaging match that specified in the brief.
- Carrying out desktop research and analysis to determine what a particular client’s competition is writing about, how they communicate with their target audiences, and whether there are any elements that we should seek to replicate in our writing.
- Creating content structure outlines for articles, blog posts, and how-to guides - setting out a clear, logical structure for a piece of content that includes strong section headers, relevant FAQs and clear messaging throughout.
- Engaging in ongoing training and development programmes to finetune your writing abilities, especially in line with SEO best practices and producing content within commercial contexts.
- Proactively taking on feedback (from both internal and external sources) to continually improve writing.
- Recognising that Digitaloft’s teams are an extension of our client’s own marketing functions - it’s our job to internalise their brand identities and make them feel that they are at the centre of everything we do.
