Company description

Hi there! We’re Razorfish. We’ve been leading the marketing industry with our digital expertise since the start of the internet. But in 2020, we did a full reboot. What’s different? It all starts with people. Weird, wonderful, complex people - with diverse backgrounds in strategy, creative and technology. But no matter how different we are, we all have one thing in common. We believe our differences are our strength. So we push for inclusion, challenge convention and bring in new perspectives, to inspire new ideas. Because when we connect by understanding what makes people different, we can create unforgettable experiences that enrich lives. Join us at razorfish.com.

Overview

Sr. Copywriters at Razorfish are as insightful and conceptual as ever—identifying real human truths and finding interesting ways for brands to bring them to life. And we’re doing it with more and more ease. Our ability to interpret feedback is stronger, and we’re mastering the craft of details; writing with a clear tone of voice.

While we’re still a major force of idea generation, our Creative Directors are beginning to entrust us with responsibilities beyond brainstorms, creative decks and copywriting alone. We’re leaning even more into the production of our ideas: voiceover sessions, casting specs, editing, music searches and connecting the dots between mediums in 360 campaigns.

This specific Sr. Copywriter will be sitting within the B2B workstream for a major financial client and will spend the bulk of their time concepting and drafting insightful, informative, engaging longform content for both internal and external distribution.

We roll up our sleeves to get to the idea—then tinker and toil til it’s just right.

PLEASE NOTE: This role is intended to be a hybrid role requiring onsite engagement at our Los Angeles office an average of 3 days/week and candidates local to that market will be prioritized. Highly qualified candidates from other US-based locations who are willing and able to work PST hours may also be considered. Note that hybrid engagement may be required for candidates who are local to a city where Razorfish or Publicis Groupe has a physical office location.
