Description:

Media fragmentation, changing consumer behavior, the shifting nature of search and social, and the rise of generative AI is transforming the practice of Marketing & Communications. As Senior Staff Writer at Quietly, you’ll help our clients navigate this new world order and meaningfully earn attention by developing unique perspectives and crafting innovative copy.
Senior writers at Quietly know what it takes to cut through the clutter and engage audiences. They are passionate about language and understand that readers are discerning and time starved. They channel their inner nerd — using investigative research and data-driven insights to identify gaps, opportunities, and ultimately, thought leading narratives and angles — and then roll up their sleeves to bring it all to life.
Writers create content for a variety of user needs, formats, and have a strong appreciation for the relationship between textual and visual elements. They’re able to adapt their voice to each project, and are able to work across an array of subject matter (from consumer luxury lifestyle to technical B2B software). Writers at Quietly don’t just hone a strong voice; they cultivate many.
You’re as passionate about writing as you are about editorial consistency and effectiveness — and you have no shortage of great ideas to elevate content. You inspire your teammates to raise the bar on every level — from brief to execution. You are looking for the next big challenge, and like us, you have no small plans.
This is a full-time opportunity offering a competitive base salary, 3-weeks vacation, and a comprehensive benefits package. If these values resonate, we’d love to hear from you.
About the company: Quietly is an award-winning content consultancy, working across the entire lifecycle — from discovery and strategy to production and distribution.

  • Work closely with Editors and Editorial & Content Managers to ensure all information is accurate (fact-checking)
