Temp Copy Manager

This role is on the Emerging Brands team at Kendo, splitting time between digital copy (50%), social media copy (30%) and packaging copy (20%). You thrive in a fast-paced environment and take pride in seeing the impact generated by your writing—in email subject lines, social posts, beauty-product packaging and more. In this job, you’ll be responsible for digital copy assets for OLE HENRIKSEN and LIP LAB, including website updates, product pages, performance marketing, paid search, blog posts, email campaigns and SMS campaigns. You have a passion for and deep understanding of makeup and skincare—in fact, you just might be the friend everyone goes to for beauty advice. You know the difference between a matte, satin or sheer finish in a lipstick. You know why vitamin C is a such an important antioxidant, and you understand why the skin barrier needs to be strong. As part of our team, you’ll use this knowledge to create compelling, successful digital and social content while assisting with proofreading and packaging copy.
