Hiring a stupid Creative Writer

Overview

WOW this guy / gal is just stupid creative!

If prostituting your god given talents at one of Switzerland’s few truly cool (and most famous) lifestyle brands sounds like your kind of ego trip, then read on :

Chimpy’s looking for a Creative Writer (with both content and copywriting skills) to give our voice some real umph. We need someone who can jump from writing razor-sharp LinkedIn posts to cooking up campaign concepts that make people stop mid-scroll and think, “damn, that’s stupid clever!”

The deal

• You love words. All of them. Long ones, short ones, even made-up ones. But you also see them for what they are : tools to get a job done.
• You know how to turn bad ideas into stories that stick like flextape.
• You can shift gears like you’re Colin Mcrae: one moment writing B2B copy for retail execs, the next crafting a punchy B2C Headline targeted towards Gen Alpha ipad babies.
• You thrive in an electric startup environment with lots of freedom, flexibility and collective drive to grow and push boundaries.

The dream candidate (aka you?)

• Half creative, half strategic and 100% a doer: aka you’re used to getting ideas out of your head and into the world fast (agency background is a big +).
• You understand context and platforms: you can adapt your style to different tones of voice, goals, and audiences.
• You master swiss german slang, real german and english (french and italian are a +)

The job entails

• Write compelling, platform-native copy (LinkedIn, IG, web, ads)
• Create and pitch campaign concepts
• Collaborate with design and marketing on go-to-market launches
• Help evolve Chimpy’s voice across regions and languages
• Baking banana shaped pizzas at team events (you’ll learn on the job)

Why the hell even join this circus

Over the last 10 years, we turned Chimpy from a bar-napkin idea into one of Switzerland’s most recognizable Gen Z lifestyle brands. Our product is in the middle of cities : at train stations, corner shops, music festivals. It’s a unique example of a fully circular service being intrinsically better for both who offers it, who uses it and the environment.

With millions of happy customers, steady YoY growth, and three new markets under our belt, we are now on the verge of our next Major breakthrough (but I won’t tell you what it is yet).

This is a great opportunity for any creative marketer who wants to sit in the cockpit during extraordinary times, seeing the impact of their ideas in the real world while working with a crew of likeminded doers that push each other to grow, while not taking themselves too seriously and having a lot of fun in the process.

How to apply

If this resonates with you, please apply by writing a few words about yourself and why you were born for this role.

Thank you for your attention to this matter,

Jari Brontesi

Marketing Director at Chimpy
