Creative Content Writer

Splash Media Group is looking to expand our social and digital pod with an experienced creative content writer in our Prince George, BC office. Splash is looking for candidates who are creative, collaborative, and have excellent writing and grammar skills. You must also be very detailed and have a strong understanding of marketing strategy and storytelling.

This position joins our existing social and digital media team and our successful candidate can expect to spend their days writing, researching, planning and executing strategy. This position works primarily within the social media team as we publish content to a variety of platforms and engage with communities and various audiences. This role also works with the creative team to offer ideas and strategic direction for graphic design, reels and other execution pieces. This position will also support web content creation and other digital content.

This is a position and industry that continues to evolve and grow so adapting, problem solving, patience and an eagerness to excel is essential. Having the ability to research, source and then write and adapt content to meet our client’s tone and strategy is essential. This position is not based on using AI as clients look for us to represent them in a way they can’t and so we expect a high level of commitment to learning and understanding our clients, the industry they are in and their overall goals.

Our agency works with a range of small to very large clients throughout Canada and the US, so having pride in your work and understanding the quality level you need to work at, is critical to your success in this position.
