Job Description

Hi, we’re Big Human. We’re a full-service creative agency. We work with the world’s most interesting brands to bring their vision to life through technology, design, branding and marketing. 

Since 2010, we’ve produced 262 websites, 80 applications and 50 brands for 247 satisfied clients (Rockefeller Center, Gemini, Quinn and Netflix, to name just a few). And we’ve still found time for our own passion projects on the side (like HQ Trivia and Vine). 

As we continue expanding our marketing capabilities, we’re looking for a Senior Content Strategist & Copy Lead to help shape how we tell brand stories—both for our clients and for Big Human itself.

About the Role

We are looking for a strategic, creative and detail-oriented writer who can own content strategy, editorial management and copywriting across various projects. This role will focus on client work and Big Human’s own brand marketing, ensuring high-quality content across websites, blogs and marketing campaigns.

The ideal candidate is both a skilled writer and a content manager—someone who can craft compelling copy as well as assign and edit content. Many of our projects are rooted in building something from the ground up, so you should be a creative thinker who can also make strategic recommendations. You’ll be working on website copy, landing pages, editorial strategy and other creative endeavors, ensuring our clients’ and Big Human’s messaging is engaging, clear and optimized for performance.

This is a mid-to-senior-level role reporting to the Director of Marketing.

What You’ll Do

Content Strategy & Execution

  • Develop and execute content strategies, ranging from strategic direction of voice & tone down to the nitty gritty details like copy editing for consistency
  • Write and edit high-quality website copy, blog content and landing pages.
  • Provide strategic recommendations on messaging, audience targeting and positioning.

Editorial & Content Management

  • Assign, edit and manage editorial content across blogs, websites and marketing materials.
  • Work with freelancers, designers, and other stakeholders to produce content that fits within broader brand and marketing goals.
  • Oversee content calendars and ensure deadlines are met.

Marketing & Amplification

  • Collaborate with multiple stakeholders across departments, as well as Product Managers, to create cohesive brand messaging.
  • Help shape Big Human’s own marketing initiatives, making sure our brand voice stands out in the digital space.
  • Support social media, email and creative campaign content by crafting compelling headlines, captions and scripts.

Who You Are

  • 5+ years of experience in content strategy, copywriting and/or editorial management.
  • A strong writer and editor with a portfolio of website copy, blog content and marketing materials.
  • Experience writing for digital experiences, with a baseline understanding of UX writing.
  • Ability to think strategically, offering recommendations on messaging, audience alignment and positioning.
  • Organized and detail-oriented, able to manage content workflows and editorial processes.
  • A team player who collaborates well with designers, developers and marketers.

Bonus Points…

  • Familiarity with SEO best practices and content performance analytics.
  • Hands-on experience with content management systems like WordPress or Contently (or similar).

Why Work at Big Human?

We believe work is important, but so is taking care of yourself, connecting with your team and stepping away from the screen to recharge. Here are just a few of the perks of working at Big Human:

  • Remote Office (with bi-monthly coworking days)
  • Health, Dental & Vision Insurance (including options completely covered by Big Human)
  • 14 Paid Holidays & Generous Vacation Time
  • 401(k) Matching
  • 10-16 Weeks of Paid Parental Leave 
  • Internet Credit & Home Office Upgrade Stipend
  • Summer Fridays
  • Yearly Team Retreat & Company-Sponsored Team Events
  • Shared Experience Fund & Donation Matching
  • Education Fund for professional development

This role is fully remote, with preference for someone based in the Tri-State area (or ease of travel to NYC for our coworking days and team gatherings). Compensation is commensurate with experience, and ranges from $95,000-125,000.

Our Values at Big Human

The Big Human experience—how we work, who we hire, and what we build—is shaped by our values:

  • We’re supportive. We foster a workplace that encourages creativity, mental wellness and work-life balance.
  • We’re grounded. We think big but stay realistic, humble and ego-free.
  • We’re passionate. Creativity breeds passion, and we bring that commitment and excitement to every project—client or internal.
  • We’re forward-thinking. We don’t just build for today—we create brands and digital products that evolve over time.
  • We’re accountable. While we work as individuals, we execute as a team.

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

Big Human is committed to fostering a diverse, inclusive, and equitable workplace. We encourage BIPOC and people from traditionally underrepresented backgrounds to apply. We believe that diverse perspectives fuel creativity and innovation, helping us build better products, brands, and experiences. 

We are an equal opportunity employer and value diversity at our company. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.

How to Apply

If you’re passionate about creating great content, building brands and helping digital experiences shine, we’d love to hear from you. And if you’ve read this far, you should know that our Director of Marketing loves a good cover letter.
