- Collaborative subediting: use your sharp eye for detail to ensure all copy produced by the editorial team is free of spelling and grammatical errors
- Creative briefing and oversight: translate client briefs into compelling and actionable writing briefs, collaborating with your team to bring these to life
- Client counsel: work closely with clients, in partnership with creative and account teams, to drive B2B writing strategy and provide creative insight
- New business: contribute to new business pitching, helping develop creative ideas for new opportunities across VCCP Roar
- Being an expert in writing & delivery: master a TOV and output that translates successfully across all clients but with a specific execution style that rings true to each key client
- Trend monitoring: keep up to date with the latest developments in tech and business
ROLE SPECIFIC SKILLS REQUIRED
- Previous experience working on/writing for technology clients
- A background within PR
- Strong communicator and writer
- Critical thinking

WHO YOU ARE
You are a confident and analytical thinker who uses slick writing skills and technical expertise to improve our clients' communications and play a regular role in advising them. With a day-to-day focus on writing and developing innovative ideas, you play a key role in campaigns that are rooted in strategic market, audience and brand understanding.
