We want a twisted sense of humor that can also stay organized.
We want someone who can write in multiple brand voices without inserting theirs.
We want a writer who can manipulate trends and current events to our brands’ advantage, not just regurgitate memes.

We want a writer who will gleefully throw down on print, ambient, and television projects.

Requirements:

  • Minimum 1-year agency experience.

  • A working knowledge of social media management tools.

About Tattoo Projects: 

We are a creative agency that leaves indelible impressions.
We are forward-looking-advertising-fanatics with an in-house photography studio, a postproduction department, and a Small Agency of the Year award.
