Mid/Senior Writer

Strika specialises in creating high-impact communication tools for clients across the globe – and it all starts with our writers, who lay the foundation for everything we produce in our creative studio. We follow a visual-first approach to communication, and this means Strika writers do much more than just write copy; they are responsible for conceptualising highly visual communication tools that tell a compelling story in order to inform and educate.

The writer we are looking for will work on communication tools such as motion graphics, online learning modules, comics, newsletters, case studies, toolbox talks, handbooks, infographics, and posters for our clients in the mining industry and other fields.

Key requirements of the role include:

• The ability to understand highly technical and/or complex subject matter and communicate it in crystal clear, engaging language.
• The ability to conceptualise memorable, informative visuals.
• The ability to conceptualise and write for a wide range of communication tools and formats.
• High levels of creativity.
• Strong research skills and a deep curiosity about how things work.
• Strong logical reasoning skills, analytical skills and attention to detail.
• The ability to manage your time well and meet deadlines.
• A thirst for growth and development. The specialised nature of the work presents a steep learning curve even for seasoned writers, so you must have a desire to push yourself and keep learning. Ideally, our writers eventually grow into the role of creative lead.

Apply by emailing a cover letter, CV and portfolio or relevant writing samples to moc.akirts@seuqcaj.

Please note that this is not a remote position.

Short-listed candidates will be required to complete a test to help us further assess their suitability for the role.
