Responsibilities

• This is a hands-on role covering both copy and design.
• You'll be taking relatively open briefs, understanding the commercial objective, challenging and refining the thinking where needed, and then owning the work through to finished, usable assets.
• The initial work includes priority areas: Website copy and content – helping us sharpen and structure key pages so the proposition is immediately clear, compelling and easy to understand.
• Sales – sales/overview collateral, pitch or sales deck and supporting assets.
• Proposal template – a polished, reusable proposal format that is easy for us to adapt.
• One-pagers and service overviews – clear, concise assets that communicate the value of what we do without trying to say everything at once.
• Case studies – developing both the copy and presentation so they work as useful sales assets rather than simply being project write-ups.
• There are also likely to be further requirements around: service brochures; LinkedIn and campaign assets; event collateral; reusable templates; other brand and sales materials as they arise.
• The work will be prioritised together.
• After the initial priority work, there is likely to be a need for ongoing ad-hoc freelance work as new campaigns, offers and collateral arise.

Requirements

• Significant freelance experience and the ability to own work independently.
• A strong portfolio demonstrating both copywriting and design, ideally showing examples where the two have been developed together.
• Proven B2B experience – this is essential.
• Experience working with startups, scale-ups or growing businesses, where pace and pragmatism matter.
• Experience creating commercial assets such as sales decks, pitch decks, proposals, one-pagers, websites and/or case studies.
• Strong commercial judgement and an understanding of how content and design support marketing and sales, not just brand awareness.
• Excellent writing and editing skills.
• Strong visual and layout skills with a high level of attention to detail.
• The ability to work within an existing brand while knowing when and how to improve its application.
• Strong stakeholder management skills and the confidence to take a brief, ask the right questions and then get on with it.
