Freelance Copywriter

Medium Blue (founded in 2000) is an established, well-respected online marketing agency. We are currently seeking a qualified freelance copywriter for approximately 10 hours per week. This is a fully remote position.

Important: The nature of our industry precludes the use of AI tools for generating copy. Such tools can be used for research and organization, but the copy itself must be written organically.

Job Description:

Daily responsibilities include writing, re-writing, copyediting and proofreading a wide variety of optimized content for clients, including blog posts and website marketing copy.

The copywriter must have an excellent grasp of the English language and its rules of spelling, grammar, and punctuation. It is imperative that individuals in this position have the capacity to multi-task, prioritize, and meet deadlines.

Experience and Requirements:

A bachelor’s degree in English, communications, marketing, journalism or a related discipline is preferred. Candidates with a strong writing, research, and/or SEO/social media background will have an advantage.

Candidates must have writing samples to qualify (marketing and/or blog post samples are preferred). Again, please include these in your submission.

QUALIFICATIONS & SKILLS

The ideal candidate will possess a unique combination of skills, aptitudes, and attitudes. To be considered for this position, candidates should:

  • Have excellent copywriting and copyediting skills. Prior experience conducting interviews and/or writing copy for the journalism, marketing, or advertising fields is a plus. Familiarity with AP Style is also a plus.
  • Have the ability to conduct in-depth research and write about any topic with relative ease, from the rather mundane to the highly technical.
  • Have the ability to meet deadlines on a consistent basis.
  • Be comfortable working with the full suite of Microsoft Office products, particularly Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.

Submissions including cover letters will have an advantage.
