HYBRID
Stereo is a culturally charged creative agency. We're a team of 60+, based in London and San Francisco, with a reputation for delivering exciting work for both the lifestyle and service sector.
We're on the hunt for a Lead Copywriter to join our growing team. You will work closely with designers to concept, create and oversee copy output for one of our biggest clients - a dream client for many writers. Being successful in the role will require you to adhere to strict copy guidelines while continuing to advance their famously inspiring and irreverent tone of voice.
The ideal candidate will have solid experience in conceptual copywriting, but also a real flair for hands-on long and short form copywriting. We're looking for a writer who really wants to write - be that a manifesto, campaign headline or an email. You should hold your own writing to the same high standards you hold your team to.
A real passion for the worlds of sport, fashion and culture are essential. So if you've got the knowledge and experience to back it up, get in touch.
