Creative Copywriter, 60–100% (all genders), hybrid
You think in words, but feel in images? Same here. For us, words are more than just information – they’re emotion, intention, and experience. As a Creative Copywriter at standing ovation, you’ll be part of an interdisciplinary team that creates brand experiences from insight to impact. You’ll bring strategies to life, give ideas a voice, and turn complex content into something clear, relatable, and full of energy.
Who you Are
You don’t just write – you shape ideas, build narratives, and give brands a distinctive tone of voice. You love turning insights into headlines, claims, and storylines that stick. Working closely with strategy, design, and creative teams, you develop content that resonates emotionally and positions brands with clarity and purpose. Whether it's a big campaign idea, an Instagram reel, a pitch deck, or a strategic narrative – you strike the right tone, every time. You’re conceptually strong, collaborative, and committed to turning creative thinking into compelling language.
What You Bring to the Table
- At least 2–3 years of experience as a copywriter or storyteller – ideally in brand communications, campaigning, or events
- A degree or training in communications, journalism, literature, advertising, or a related field
- Experience crafting big ideas, claims, messaging frameworks, and strategic narratives
- The ability to think strategically and translate ideas into cohesive, creative storytelling
- A sharp sense for language, style, timing, and audience needs
- Familiarity with AI tools – like brand voice development, tone analysis, or building GPTs. You use AI as a creative partner, not a replacement
- Excellent German and English skills; French is a plus
