Copywriter
Bumble’s Creative Studio is at an exciting inflection point. We’re growing rapidly, supporting Bumble Inc.’s portfolio of apps globally and we want this momentum to continue. As part of this expansion, we’re looking to hire a Copywriter to be a part of our small but mighty team, working on global projects and across time zones.
In this role within the Creative Studio, you’ll help develop effective and culturally relevant work for our portfolio of brands. You’ll be part of a full-service, in-house, geographically diverse creative team of designers, art directors, copywriters, video editors, and producers who work hand-in-hand with external production and agency partners.
The person we’re looking for is equal parts concept and craft. Someone who appreciates a big idea as much as they do a well-placed em-dash. A writer’s writer who knows how to optimize copy per platform and deliver breakthrough ideas rooted in strategy.
Your work will span a wide variety of touchpoints for Bumble Inc.—from social and digital to OOH, experiential, TV, audio, and beyond—in a dynamic, fast-paced environment where your creativity and voice will play a crucial role.
This role is based in the US, reporting to the Copy Lead.
