Job Description:

Copywriter
We---re looking for a copywriter who loves to work as part of a creative team to bring brands to life through words. As a copywriter, you---ll contribute creative juices and strategic thinking to projects that make a huge impact on our clients, lifting them to a level of distinction that makes them magnetic forces within their markets. Are you a creative problem-solver who obsesses over language? Are you flexible enough to shift from thinking about bigger conceptual challenges to writing a social ad, email sequence or landing page that ultimately expresses that initial creative concept? Are you ready to be challenged to do amazing work for brands of all sizes and influence in an industry that we believe is among the most important in our lives --- housing? If so, let---s talk.

What you---ll be doing:

• Craft strategic brand language that sets the tone for subsequent creative work
  
  • Write smart headlines that express a brand---s unique position in a way that catches the attention of their ideal targets
    
    • Turn brand language into video scripts, email copy, landing pages, print pieces and more that evoke emotion and communicate a clear point of view
      
      • Develop content strategy that will drive the expression of copy into deliverables for the client
        
        • Work collaboratively within a creative team that isn---t satisfied with the obvious and never misses a deadline
          
          • Work autonomously to come up with creative ideas and finish work on time for a number of projects at once
            
            • Present work to our internal team and to clients
              
              The right candidate has the following:
              
              • 5 + years experience writing brand-driven copy for an agency--
              • Excellent copy craftsmanship --- grammar, attention to detail, pride in polished work
              • A strong portfolio that details your specific role in work shown
              • Experience and skill in presenting work to clients
              • Experience bringing brand stories to life across a variety of mediums (video, print, email, radio, social media, web)
              • Comfortable working digitally with Zoom, Slack, G Suite and similar collaboration tools
              • Real estate experience is not necessary, but a genuine curiosity and interest in our industry is
              • A collaborative spirit
              • An empathetic core that enables you to connect with the audience of your work through the words you create
              • Located on the West Coast in Pacific Time Zone
                This is a full-time salaried position with health benefits, company-sponsored 401(k), and a current work-from-home culture.
