Temporary - Copywriter

About the role

We are seeking a strategic, detail-oriented Copywriter to join our growing team and help shape the voice of a contemporary, science-backed skincare brand. This role will be responsible for translating clinical innovation, ingredient science, and product efficacy into compelling, consumer-facing narratives that drive engagement, education, and conversion across all channels.
