Overview

B2B Copywriter Manchester City Centre - Close to Victoria Station Up to £30,000 depending on experience You’re not one of those people who just thinks they’re a copywriter. You know the type… Those content writers who churn out thousands of words just to fill space on the page or the screen. The type of writers who care not for spelling, grammar nor punctuation. The ones who type a boilerplate intro or a cliché without wincing and think, “That’ll do.” And the word “solutions”? Yes, they use it. A lot. Sound familiar? Then this isn’t the role for you, I’m afraid. Still here? Good… Who we’re looking for You know what copywriting is , and you can prove your success at driving leads and sales.
