Senior Copywriter - Boston, United States - Later

Description

Later is founded on two success stories that began in 2014: Mavrck, the industry-leading influencer marketing solution (now Later InfluenceTM), and Later, the best social media management platform (now Later SocialTM) and first-to-market link in bio tool.

We're trusted by the top social platforms, with partnerships and integrations with Meta, TikTok, X/Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube, and Pinterest.

In 2024, Mavrck and Later officially joined together as one unified business, with a shared vision: to enable the world to make a living with their creativity. We're now on a mission to build the world's first Social Revenue Platform.

Later will be the first inclusive platform where social media managers, influencer managers, and creators can come together to collaborate on content. We enable marketers to create high-performing content and engage in authentic collaborations with creators to reach new audiences, drive engagement, and generate predictable ROI.

As a trusted partner and go-to source for social media advice, we help create an engaged community for reliable performance and repeatable growth.

We're looking for a creative, conversion-focused Senior Copywriter to join our copy & content team.

This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced copywriter to own copy projects at Later, and make your mark in the social media and influencer marketing space (a deep understanding and passion for the industry are a must).

The ideal candidate will have experience writing short-form brand copy for B2B/B2C audiences, ideally with experience at a tech or SaaS company. You have experience owning large, multi-channel copy projects and campaigns from start to finish. You enjoy taking initiative and actively brainstorming new creative ideas to build brand awareness and thought leadership.

As a senior-level copywriter, you're used to collaborating regularly with graphic designers, web designers, product marketers, sales leads, and other cross-functional team members.
