Do you have a way with words that makes people stop scrolling?
Are you the kind of person who sees a trend before it peaks and knows exactly how to spin it for a brand?
If you’re ready to flex your creativity, take ownership of briefs, and bring fresh energy to one of South Africa’s biggest Telco brands, we want you on our team.
What You’ll Do:
Write with Impact: Create engaging, platform-first copy across posts, stories, reels, and TikToks that connect with our audiences in bold and relevant ways.
Own Creative Execution: Take briefs and turn them into social content ideas that feel current, exciting, and on-brand.
Collaborate with Creatives: Work closely with designers, strategists, and community managers to deliver content that sings visually and verbally.
Spot & Spin Trends: Stay on top of cultural moments, local memes, and digital behaviours, and help the brand tap into them authentically.
Engage in Social Listening: Monitor conversations and spot opportunities for reactive content or clever community engagement.
Support Campaigns: Contribute copy and ideas for social-first campaigns, activations, and integrated Telco brand moments.
Balance the Details: Ensure accuracy in spelling, grammar, tone, and local vernacular, with an eye for quality and detail.
Get Stuck In: Be hands-on with reactive posts, scrappy content shoots, and real-time publishing when needed.
What You Bring:
2–4 years of experience in social media copywriting, content creation, or a related creative field.
A strong portfolio of social-first work that shows your ability to write across formats and platforms.
A natural understanding of what makes content engaging online - whether it’s humour, timing, or cultural relevance.
The ability to adapt your tone of voice depending on the platform and audience.
A love for digital culture, memes, and trends, especially those unique to South Africa.
A proactive, problem-solving mindset, you’re comfortable jumping in and making things happen.
Good organisational and time management skills to balance multiple briefs and deadlines.
Bonus:
Ability to write in isiXhosa, isiZulu, or other South African languages for added authenticity.
