Job Description:

Job DescriptionHello, we're The Sasha Group! We serve a wide range of businesses from helping young startups develop their core to helping established brands think differently and flex with the times. From building brand foundations to building momentum, we combine creativity with thoughtfulness and speed to solve business challenges. We like to describe ourselves as "consultancy at the front and an agency 'round the back." At The Sasha Group, we believe that smart, creative thinking is the ultimate variable that makes brands come to life, whether it's the startup looking to break into a space or the big, well-known brand looking to break the mold. And while we believe good ideas can come from anywhere, not everyone has the talent, skills, and craft to get those half-ideas onto paper. That's where you come in. We are looking for seasoned Senior Copywriters who are experts in their craft and are entrepreneurial about how they can use words (written or spoken) to communicate, guide, and execute against a client's goals. Sometimes that means writing short & clever copy for social content. Sometimes it's writing a script for a video. Sometimes it's helping them craft their brand voice for the very first time. Every deliverable is challenging, but highly rewarding. Who's on the team? You'll be joining a tightly-knit creative team working with emerging and established brands across CPG, fashion, food & beverage, financial services, entertainment, and more.
