Copy Manager - Gilly Hicks
Location : Columbus, OH, USA
Full-time
Company Description
Our Brand
You may think you know Gilly Hicks, but that Gilly Hicks was just going through an experimental phase, you know, like when Garth Brooks moonlighted as Chris Gaines, or that whole New Coke thing in the ‘80s. Remember when Pizza Hut had a hot dog stuffed pizza? The point is that we’ve found ourselves, and if you play your words right, you could find yourself with us.
Do you live on TikTok? Is your twitter feed your magnum opus? Do you send your friends memes they don’t understand, and with every “I don’t get it” response, a tiny bit of your soul’s flame extinguishes? Ok then, last one. Do you want to reinvent the brand voice of a multimillion-dollar underwear business?
We’re looking for someone who will:
Drive a copy-led brand whose brand voice impacts every decision we make
Create campaigns, TikToks, tweets & captions so beloved and celebrated, planes are rented to skywrite about them
Work with a badass, close-knit pod of creatives, strategists, designers & merchandisers to push boundaries & make cool shit
Manage a stealth team of writers
Derive as much personal pleasure from concepting Hulu ads as you do care label instructions
Be a self-motivated, information seeker
Lead with confidence, accept failure with humility
What you have:
Background in Marketing, Creative Writing, English, Journalism, or Communications
Experience managing a team (desired, but not required)
6+ years copywriting experience
Superior language & grammar skills
Program knowledge (Microsoft Office and Adobe Creative Suite)
Strong work ethic with the ability to multitask and thrive under accelerated deadlines & shifting deliverables
A team-player mentality with an openness to receive & execute feedback
A desire to raise your hand instead of point fingers
Please link your portfolio, tiktok, Instagram, or twitter accounts. This role lives and breathes social and we want to see what you got!
