Want to join the first Entrepreneurship Society ever created in Finland?

We’re looking for a Copywriter for our Blog to join our Marketing team! You will be reporting to our Head of Marketing, Roman, and be the fourth member of the small but highly ambitious and reactive team.  Expected work hours -> 5-10 hours/ week

🧠You will make an impact by…

As a Copywriter (Blog), your main duty will be to focus on the production of engaging and relevant long-form content like website blogs. Most new members start off with a single simple task before diving in deep into our operations, and they are supported along the way by the rest of the team. 

You’ll be planning and executing blog content and planning for our community and relevant audience and working closely with our Head of Marketing, Website Lead, and briefly with the rest of the teams. 

To be successful in this role, you need to have a combination of excellent communication skills, fresh ideas, and a get-sh*t-done attitude. You don’t need heavy prior experience in copywriting.

📝 Your responsibilities will include:

• Producing blog-worthy content on relevant topics at least once a month

• Conduct SEO optimization analytics of the website content together with the Website Lead 

• Plan, develop and execute a marketing strategy to promote the content together with Head of Marketing and Content Lead 

• Measure the success of your campaigns

Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English are a must. 

We’re looking for someone with:

• A creative mindset and ready to test various ideas

• Passion for copywriting or at least willingness to learn

• People skills; you’ll need to manage a lot of different stakeholders in this role (potentially working with a full marketing team)

• BONUS if you have at least a basic understanding of Search Engine Optimization (SEO). If not, we’ll teach you :)

Last but not least, we’re looking for someone who is an open-minded and humble team player, ready to try new things and approaches. We're not competing against our team members, but sharing knowledge and really helping each other. Communication is key in this role as it is a volunteer position. Any and all unavailability is understandable if communicated with the team in a straightforward manner

💆🏻‍♂️What’s in it for you?

This is a great position if you want to gain specific experience in copywriting and see what it could look like working in a startup environment (an ES is a light simulation of a startup). 

We take our work seriously - ourselves not so much :D We recognize our team as our greatest asset and take good care of our people, including the onboarding process and support and assistance throughout your work.

Here is a "short" list of things you'll get to enjoy:

• Certificate for voluntary work will be provided

• A valuable learning opportunity for developing marketing, design and content creation skills

• Training for the position will be provided, all necessary skills will be taught 

• Invaluable assets for future marketing and advertising employment 

• Unique chance to try out different marketing tools 

• Opportunity to proceed to the board of Laurea Entrepreneurship Society

• Access to a great office in VillageWorks (if Covid restrictions allow)

• Awesome team activities and hangouts (i.e. Co-creative workshop, cabin weekend).
