  • Report to the Brand &Creative Lead
  • Write copy for many types of assets, from video to ads, social, sites, events, and more
  • Collaboratively brainstorm ideas with the brand team to hit our goals
  • Get to know our customers and base your decision making on what you learned from them
  • Use data to verify your decisions and further improve the impact of your copy work
  • Fall back onto a pool of freelancers to support in copywriting when necessary
  • Work with Hotjar’s existing style guide and tone of voice and update it if required


Job requirements: 
  • A portfolio that shows your love for words, copywriting and storytelling
  • Previous experience writing brand awareness campaigns in a similar industry (ideally in-house, or agency)
  • Excellent level of English
  • Proven track record of testing and improving copy
  • Desire to work in a respectful, transparent, and collaborative work environment, following Hotjar’s company values, culture and ways of working
  • Must submit to a background check confidentially processed by our third-party
