Overview:
Elements Brands is searching for a dynamic copywriter to join our growing team. Our ideal candidate is a content-loving chameleon with the ability to create everything from product descriptions to email newsletters at a rapid pace and with very few mistakes. You have some experience writing for eCommerce websites and are confident in your ability to identify keywords and execute strategies that result in more eyes on our sites and increased conversions. This person will be the literary voice of all of our brands and will be working hand in hand with the rest of our marketing team to conceptualize campaigns, fill our customers’ inboxes, and so much more. In other words, you should be as comfortable writing a blog about dog care in the summer as you are about crafting instructions on how to use laundry detergent in non-traditional ways.
