Job Description

Associate Creative Director, Copy

Thrive on variety? Excited about clients spanning everything from health wearables to entertainment streamers and short-term rental titans? The West Coast creative team at Weber Shandwick is growing and we’re looking for an idea-generating, out-of-the-box thinking, earned-first copywriter to join our award-winning crew.

We’re in the business of making our clients’ brands famous, with in-culture work that makes a mark and gets people talking. The brands and briefs run the gamut. You’ll lead ideation and work hand-in-hand with our creative teams to craft breakthrough ideas that demand attention out in the world. Point is, you’ll be a doer AND a driver that pushes the work forward. And you’ll need to talk, sell, and win over clients.

What You Will Be Doing

  • Developing and delivering creative ideas that make our clients and their brands famous
  • Generating breakthrough work that can live across platforms — and inspiring others to do the same
  • Delivering a broad range of projects: Social posts, creative narratives, product copy, video scripts, and more
  • Backing up your work with smart, strategic choices
  • Guiding, teaching, and mentoring junior members of the team while promoting an inclusive environment
  • Staying looped in with team leadership for temp checks, alignment, and guidance
  • Collaborating seamlessly with creatives and other teams throughout the network
  • Questioning, pushing, and providing feedback on briefs and asks with our Strategy, Client Experience, and Integrated Media teams


Qualifications

  • 5+ years of experience in a creative role with experience managing a creative team (advertising, digital, social media, publishing/content or public relations)
  • Must be self-motivated, hardworking, well-organized, thick skinned, and resilient to ever-changing timelines, requests, and deliverables; must not be afraid to confront problems
  • Ongoing drive to understand emerging techniques, cultural trends, and philosophies in marketing, technology, earned ideas, and social media
  • Excellent presentation and communication abilities, internal and externally
  • A clear understanding of what an "earned idea" is
  • Strong ability to provide clear creative perspective and timely, helpful feedback to improve creative processes and to keep work on budget/schedule; be aware of your deadlines and how to get there
  • Ability to prioritize work and resources across engagements based on short and long-term needs
  • Proven mentoring and team-building skills
  • Experience leading creative for large brands is preferred
