Applicants beyond fifty (50) miles may still be considered.

About the role

We’re building a strong, modern in-house agency, and we’re looking for a Copy Manager who can help lead that evolution. 

 

This is not a traditional copy role. It’s a hands-on creative leadership position responsible for elevating the quality, consistency, and performance of copy across the full customer experience, from brand campaigns to lifecycle communications. You’ll lead a team of writers, shape creative direction, and partner closely with marketing, brand, product, legal, and compliance stakeholders to deliver work that is strategic, scalable, and effective. 

 

The ideal candidate brings strong conceptual thinking, proven people leadership, sharp writing and editing skills, and experience operating in high-volume, regulated, or complex environments. 

What you'll do

Lead Creative Direction and Execution 
 
• Own creative direction for copy across marketing and customer communications 
• Drive concept development for integrated campaigns and lifecycle programs 
• Help ensure the work balances brand voice, clarity, compliance needs, and performance goals 
• Stay hands-on by reviewing, editing, and improving copy across channels 
• Raise the quality of everyday communications as well as larger campaign work
 
 
Manage and Develop a High-Performing Team

• Translate business goals into strong creative approaches 
• Lead presentations, sell ideas, and influence decision-making 
• Navigate feedback from multiple stakeholders while protecting the quality and clarity of the work 
• Help teams solve creative challenges within real-world constraints   
 
 
Drive Systems, Scale, and Quality 
 
• Improve how copy is developed, reviewed, and delivered across the organization 
• Help build scalable frameworks for high-volume creative production 
• Ensure consistency in voice, tone, and messaging across customer touchpoints 
• Support structured workflows without making the work feel formulaic 
• Manage external agencies and freelancers as needed 
 
 
Connect Creative to Performance 
 
• Evaluate copy effectiveness using performance data and insights 
• Apply learnings to improve engagement, clarity, and outcomes 
• Partner with marketing and analytics teams to support testing and optimization 
• Use performance feedback to strengthen both individual pieces of copy and broader messaging systems 

What we're looking for

• 7+ years of copywriting experience, including team leadership 
• Experience working in an in-house agency, large brand, or agency environment 
• Proven ability to lead concept development and integrated campaigns 
• Experience writing across email, lifecycle/CRM, digital, customer communications, and marketing channels 
• Experience operating in high-volume, fast-paced, regulated, or complex environments 
 
Leadership and Creative Strength 
 
• A strong portfolio demonstrating conceptual thinking, campaign development, and clear, compelling writing across channels 
• Proven experience managing, coaching, and developing writers 
• Ability to balance big-picture creative thinking with day-to-day execution 
• Strong editing skills and a clear point of view on voice, tone, messaging, and quality 
• Comfort moving between brand-level creative work and practical customer communications 
 
Systems and Performance Mindset 
 
• Experience scaling content operations while maintaining quality 
• Comfortable working within structured workflows and improving them 
• Understanding of performance metrics, testing, and optimization 
• Ability to use data and insights without losing sight of craft 
• Familiarity with AI optimization and emerging tools that can improve speed, consistency, or creative effectiveness 
 
Collaboration and Communication 
 
• Strong stakeholder management and presentation skills 
• Ability to influence across cross-functional teams 
• Experience working with legal and compliance partners is a plus 
• Clear communication style and the ability to explain creative decisions in business terms 

Why this role matters

This role is critical to how we show up to our customers every day. You’ll help ensure that everything we say across campaigns, emails, digital experiences, and customer communications is clear, consistent, aligned with our brand, and connected to measurable business outcomes.
 
What Success Looks Like
 
• A strong, consistent brand voice across customer touchpoints
• High-performing copy across marketing and lifecycle channels
• A scalable, efficient copy production model
• Good collaboration between creative, marketing, product, legal, and compliance teams
• A team of writers who are growing, engaged, and delivering their best work
 
You Might Be a Great Fit If You
 
• Have led writers but still love being close to the work
• Can move between brand campaigns and transactional messaging with ease
• See constraints, including compliance or complexity, as creative challenges
• Are comfortable managing high volumes of work without sacrificing quality
