Acorns is seeking a contract Sr. Copywriter to join the Creative team! You’ll write, edit, and concept against all brand, marketing, and business development content. We’re looking for someone who can write against every channel imaginable: podcasts, TikTok videos, emails, commercials, web, in-app copy — if there’s something that needs to be written, you’ll help shape it.

Acorns is a remote-first organization, offering the flexibility to work remotely within the United States, while providing optional access to office space in Irvine, CA.

This role is being offered on a contract basis with an expected duration of 3 months with potential to expand based on business need and requiring 40 hours of work per week.

• Push creative thinking within briefs — bringing strong points of view, asking smart questions, and helping elevate ideas to be more emotionally resonant and aligned with Acorns’ values.
  

• Collaborate with external vendors and partners as needed, contributing to reviews and ensuring all copy reflects Acorns’ standards and brand voice.

What you'll bring to Acorns:
