- The continued evolution of Harvey's writing practice as the company scales.

## What You'll Do
- Define Harvey's voice from first principles and create practical guidelines the entire company can use.
- Partner closely with Design, Motion, Web, Product Marketing, and company leadership to develop concepts and narratives from the earliest stages of a project.
- Write and edit across a broad range of work, from campaign concepts and product launches to website copy, executive storytelling, sales materials, and social content.
- Push beyond the brief to uncover the idea that makes the work memorable, not simply the message that needs to be communicated.

- Serve as Harvey's internal authority on language, helping teams communicate with greater clarity, confidence, and originality.
- Help establish the foundations of Harvey's copywriting practice and mentor future writers as the team grows.

- A portfolio demonstrating exceptional conceptual thinking alongside world-class execution across campaigns, brand, web, product, and launch work.
- A strong point of view on language, voice, and storytelling, with the judgment to know when consistency matters and when the rules should be broken.
- Experience developing creative concepts, not simply executing copy against an existing brief.
- Exceptional editing instincts and the ability to elevate the writing of others through thoughtful, direct feedback.
- Experience mentoring or guiding other writers, even if not through formal people management.
- The ability to navigate ambiguity, influence senior stakeholders, and move comfortably between strategic thinking and hands-on execution.

- Experience building or redefining a brand voice from the ground up.
