Copywriter

Our mission remains unchanged: to service the needs and aspirations of our customers and help create new stories, to take pleasure in making marked moments of delight. Whoever our customers are and wherever they come from, they can expect to be treated with grace, courtesy and care. You will have strong connections within the families industry.

About You

You will have:

• At least 1 year of experience in product copywriting or similar
• Experience editing, mentoring or giving feedback (desirable)
• Faultless spelling and grammar
• Good eye for detail and a knowledge of fashion terminology and trends
• Strong computer skills – experience with a CMS is essential

What to Expect

Paying close attention to detail, the Online Copywriter writes succinct, accurate and commercially-focused product descriptions, highlighting key features to engage the harrods.com customer.

Based at the Photography Studio in Old Street, the Online Copywriter writes an average of 20 product descriptions a day across all of our luxury categories – fashion, accessories, childrenswear, home, food and more.

As a mid-level member of the team, they will act as a guardian for the harrods.com tone of voice, so he or she is expected to bring a faultless level of spelling and grammar and an extensive knowledge of terminology across all categories.

The Copywriter also acts as a mentor for up to 3 Junior Copywriters, sub-editing daily copy and providing feedback and support, training new starters and assisting with junior recruitment.

There is also the opportunity to write additional copy in the form of brand page and product landing page copy.

What is important?

Organisation is so important to our team; we are expected to be consistent and accurate. Over time, we’ve built a reputation we are proud of. Our team are approachable and efficient and we have strong working relationships across the wider Brand Experience Division as well as the business as a whole.  We need someone who shares our values and understands the importance of our place in the business. Sometimes we are very busy; our team shares the load, supports each other and wins as a team. We set deadlines, we hit those deadlines.

Our Promise to You

At Harrods we believe nothing is impossible. We drive ourselves and inspire others to always push for more. This passion to exceed is what sets us apart. We are proud to be a place where standing out means being yourself.
