Copywriter

We’re on the lookout for a strong, curious copywriter to join our Wayfair Professional in-house creative team. You’ll be responsible for conceptualizing and executing copy for everything from promotional emails, to direct mail, to video. This role requires a skilled, meticulous, and motivated individual who can partner not only with fellow creatives, but also cross-functional marketing partners.

 

What You’ll Do

  • Under the guidance of the Creative Director, ACDs, and in close collaboration with your design partners, concept and write short- and long-form copy across marketing channels and brand touchpoints, such as omni-channel campaigns, email content, case studies, editorial site content, and beyond.
  • Use Wayfair’s wealth of performance metrics and other data (especially customer insights) to guide smarter creative decisions.
  • Live in lockstep with your cross-functional partners. You'll be responsible for maintaining seamless communication, understanding and influencing their priorities and goals, and effectively producing creative that supports (and furthers) those objectives.
  • Do all of the above in a fast-paced environment where deadlines are daily and the volume of work is high. It’s not a small or easy task, but it’s a fun and rewarding one!

What You’ll Need

  • Minimum 3 years experience writing for a retail audience (either in-house or at an agency). 
  • Proven ability and experience writing knock-your-socks-off short- and long-form copy.
  • Passionate about the creative process of writing as well as the mechanics and finer points of proper grammar, syntax, and punctuation. 
  • Endlessly curious about the customer – their passions, needs, and pain points.
  • An expert collaborator and someone who works well with other writers and designers.
  • Strong ability to articulate your ideas and opinions and self-advocate, with proof points to ground them.
  • Known for your meticulous attention to detail, ability to multitask, and a strong belief that an organized Creative is a successful Creative. 
  • An analytical, creative, and innovative approach to solving problems
  • Interested in home furnishings, interior design, and style, with a sincere interest in the retail industry.
  • A genuine and proactive interest in the latest technology trends
