A Good Thing is looking for an experienced copywriter for an intense, short project. We have a backlog of ‘charity needs’ that we have registered but have not yet had time to write up.
When charities join A Good Thing, they are invited to share their needs with us – the things their charity could really make use of. We then write these up into short (150/200-word) pieces that go onto our blog and are also heavily promoted via our social media channels. We work hard to match these charity needs up with local businesses that can fulfil the needs.
The successful candidate will be given access to our list of charity needs, and will work through them, writing them up to a template that we will provide, and then uploading them to our website. There will be some image research needed, too, for each piece.
We estimate there are roughly 150–200 hours of work here. Happy for these hours to be completed over a period of 6–12 weeks, depending on availability. Obviously this work can be done remotely and entirely flexibly. Access to a computer will be an essential requirement. You will also need to be familiar with the Squarespace tool, which we use for our website.
