About EF Education First: Some companies are in the Business of Technology.
Others are in the Business of Finance...Or Sports...Or Soft Drinks.
At EF, we're in a different kind of business.
Because our business, what we make, makes everything else possible.
We're in the Business of Understanding.
Between people.
Between cultures.
For over half a century, we've been the leader in international educational programs and methods designed to foster such understanding.
Through Language, Cultural Exchange, Academic Studies, and Educational Travel, we create the kinds of immersive experiences that challenge biases, open minds, and pave the way for a more understanding world.
And yes, we have technology, we have finance, we even have sports with our own professional cycling team, EF Education - EasyPost.
B ut it's what we do with it-building greater understanding, breaking down barriers, and creating a better world-that makes all the difference.
EF Educational Tours is seeking a passionate, energetic, entrepreneurial Junior Copywriter to join our in-house Marketing & Creative team based in Boston.
Please note: Applications without online portfolios will not be considered. About the Copywriter role: EF Education First was founded almost 60 years ago on the idea that the best way to learn is to go out into the world and experience it.
So everything we create for EF Tours is designed to enable educators to broaden their students' perspectives through travel.
That manifests in the widest range of projects you'll ever find at one job.
And since we keep the majority of our work in-house, we get to do it all-from tour itineraries to event installations, web component libraries to AR experiences, digital campaigns to the EF-iest travel swag our team can dream up.
Who you are: We're looking for a kickass junior copywriter who has:
The heart and soul of a creative, who thrives on coming up with killer ideas and inspiring copy.
1-3 years of multi-channel copywriting experience.
The brain of a strategic thinker and a creative problem-solver.
A truly collaborative nature and an interest in the kind of work enabled by close copy-design partnerships.
Self-motivation and strong time management skills, plus the ability to juggle multiple projects with overlapping deadlines.
A learner's mentality.
Most of our writers work on a little bit of everything, but we don't expect anybody to know it all upon arrival.
Openness and curiosity go a long way.
Impeccable grammar, spelling, and attention to detail-as well as a propensity for hot takes on AP vs. Chicago.
A unique perspective to offer.
Growing a team full of diverse approaches and viewpoints and experiences only makes our work stronger.
An amazing online portfolio of your work.
(This one's non-negotiable.
)Who we are: We're not your typical in-house agency.
We're an integrated Marketing & Creative team of about 70 staff: writers, designers, video editors, producers, marketing managers, lead-generators, web and email experts, loyalty specialists, and more.
We're a passionate crew that focuses on making great work,and we have lots of fun doing it.
