Copywriter

We are SC Johnson Lifestyle Brands, a growing house of brands within our parent company SC Johnson, that includes method, ecover, babyganics and mrs. meyers clean day. We've always done things differently - we're fearless thinkers, mad scientists and adventurous designers who believe that making soap leads to brave ideas, bold inventions and beautiful bubbles. We started small, but we've got big plans to make the world a cleaner, greener, more colorful place. And we invite everyone to join us as we pioneer a future where doing business is doing good for all.

THE ROLE

We are currently seeking a copywriter (who moonlights as a rock star) to join the team roster on a full-time basis. If you know our brands (and it helps if you do), you know that we are known for our voice—not only what we say, but also how we say it. Our brands speak and behave like actual humans, to and for humans. So it should go without saying that you will be both madly creative and deeply empathetic, with a fair dose of wit & charm tossed in for good measure. Beyond that, a stellar attitude, clear communication skills, a diplomatic, team-player approach and strong time management abilities are a must.
