We're looking for an in-house Senior Writer to work with our small in-house team and freelance writers producing marketing communications and sales copy for clients such as HP, BT, CSC and TomTom. Ideally we'd like someone to work from our Winchester offices, but we would consider some home-working.

The job will involve researching, writing and subediting a variety of b2b (and sometimes b2c) copy including bid documents, case studies, corporate brochures, direct mail, white papers and web copy. You'll often have to write to tight deadlines whilst ensuring that your copy reaches the highest standards, but you'll be working alongside (albeit possibly remotely) a fun team of fantastic account managers and writers.

To be considered for this exciting role, please send samples of your work, a covering email explaining why you should be considered for the position, together with your CV to clairef@writingmachine.com

What we are looking for:

Experience

You will have several years of experience as a b2b writer, either in-house, agency side or freelance writing which should include some telecoms or IT writing.

Personal traits

•  You will love words and writing

•  You will have a good eye for copy (you may even be a bit of a pedant...)

•  You will need to be organised, thorough, tenacious and ambitious

•  You will have a good working knowledge of the telecoms, technology or defence industries and equipment

•  You are personable and highly professional

•  You are able to hit the ground running

•  You are able to work well under pressure

•  You are a good team player

•  Although you will bring your own knowledge to the job you will be flexible enough to adopt Writing Machine's working practices

Responsibilities

•  Managing your workload to write and subedit copy within a specified timeframe

•  Providing peer review of copy

 Writing samples

Please send two or three samples of your writing of about three pages each.
