  • Iterate on copy changes quickly and effectively with guidance from Sr. Copywriters, adapting fluidly as project scopes shift.
  • Master and switch between differing client tones of voice and brand guidelines with ease across both languages.
  • Identify and communicate creative opportunities through competitor research, trends, and emerging technological advances in digital copy within Quebec and the Canadian Francophone markets.
  • Collaborate with Designers and Creative Directors to push creative boundaries across different styles and formats.
  • Contribute to team creative brainstorms and proactively champion forward-thinking copy solutions.
  • Proactively support other Copywriters regionally and globally.

Requirements

  • Fluent or professional fluency in written and spoken French Canadian (FR-CA) and English, with an exceptional grasp of localized grammar, regional idioms, and cultural nuances.
  • 2+ years copywriting experience; a background in a Canadian agency or brand environment is preferred.
  • Proven experience in translation, transcreation, or localization copywriting specifically for the Quebec market.
  • Experience in e-commerce/transportation technology is a plus.
  • Exposure to multi-channel digital copy and brand development; a background in social media content and copywriting is preferred.
  • Ability to produce error-free marketing content that sells in both English and Canadian French.
  • Confidence in taking ownership of individual work with support from a Sr. Copywriter.
  • Ability to work at a fast pace on large marketing campaigns with many assets.
