Copywriter
Alludo has an immediate opening for this position.
Push the boundaries of tech. In your sweatpants.
Alludo is looking for an experienced Copywriter to collaborate with the Content Marketing teams on content for Alludo’s consumer-facing websites, e-books, PPC ads, banners, email, and more. You will make a meaningful contribution to the Content program. This role requires editorial experience along with strong research and SEO skills.
Working with fellow writers, editors, and our in-house experts, you'll use your knowledge of creative copywriting to create compelling optimized content for a variety of platforms.
The top creative and technical minds could work anywhere. So why are so many of them choosing Alludo? Here are three reasons:
- This is the moment. It’s an exciting time at Alludo, with strong leadership, a refreshed brand (you probably know us as Corel!), and a whole new approach to changing the way the world works. We’re at the forefront of a movement, and we want you to ride this wave with us.
- We want you to be you. Too often, companies tell you about their culture and then expect you to fit it. Our culture is built from the people who work here. We want you to feel safe to be who you are, take risks, and show us what you’ve got.
- It’s your world. We know you have a life. We want to be part of it, but not all of it. At Alludo, we’re serious about empowering people to work when, how, and where they want. Couch? Sweatpants? Cool with us. We believe that happy employees mean happy customers. That’s why we hire amazing people and get out of their way.
Sound good so far? Awesome. Let’s talk more about the Copywriter role and see if we’re destined to be together.
As a Copywriter, you will:
- Write for brands in regulated industries about highly technical topics but doesn’t let the fear of red tape stop a good idea from coming to life.
- Craft engaging and informative content that's optimized for search engines, PPC and other paid media ads, email, and more.
- Understand the role of style guides and playbook(s) in content creation, as well as when to strategically break the rules.
- Work for a variety of different brands in a high-volume environment. You should be able to maintain a pace of (1) one 1,200-3,000-word piece per day with additional heavy editing tasks as needed.
- Prioritize your workload in Asana based on business needs and your own capabilities, working ahead when possible.
- Use Microsoft 365/Office suite of applications to create, edit, and interact with content including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, SharePoint, Outlook, and other applications as needed.
- Pride yourself on being a self-starter and capable of learning, researching, and understanding new topics primarily on your own (but with support from subject matter experts when needed).
- Be proactive with sharing ideas, asking questions, and making suggestions.
- Review, improve, and edit existing content from across multiple departments like Product, Sales, and Customer support.
- Execute content marketing with performance in mind. Every piece of content should be focused on achieving revenue, leads, or retention.
- Demonstrate an ability to elevate every assignment you work on from social copy to glossary pages to video scripts.
- Inspire those around them and push against the paradigm of mediocrity that plagues the industry.
- Comfortable writing a sales aid or helping out with content that is a bit more technical at times – whatever the team needs.
What You Bring to the Team:
- You have a portfolio with creative, relevant long-form and short-form work for which you were primarily responsible is required. Your portfolio should reflect work with elegance and intelligence.
- You love writing — of all shapes and sizes. From navigating a headline’s tight character limit to crafting a detailed video script, every word deserves consideration.
- You love getting into the nitty-gritty of topics. If you loved writing research papers in school, then you’ve got the tools and mindset we’re looking for.
- You’re comfortable with turning a specific project around in minutes or spending a day brainstorming on a blank page to get to the perfect.
- You’re perfectly capable of working solo and managing your own workload but are keen to collaborate with a team of writers, designers, and subject matter experts to take ideas further.
- You understand that copy and design work hand in hand, and you’ll work with your art director partner and our team of designers to elevate every concept.
- You listen to data and will happily seek it and use it to guide your strategy and message.
- You have an understanding of content management systems (e.g., WordPress, Drupal, etc.) and basic HTML.
