Role Description This is an opportunity to join OLIVER's dedicated in-house studio embedded with a leading healthcare education institution as Senior Copywriter — crafting content that helps adult learners, working professionals, and healthcare workers take the most important step of their careers. Based in Toronto, you'll write across the full content spectrum — email, paid social, digital display, web, and video — for five distinct higher education brands with different voices, audiences, and program portfolios. Your work bridges the gap between curiosity and choice, delivering answers that make a complex decision feel clearer. You'll work within a high-velocity, AI-augmented studio where Pencil is part of the workflow, and creative quality is never compromised by speed. Qualifications - A portfolio of strong writing across digital channels — email, social, web, and campaign copy — that demonstrates both craft and strategic thinking. - Proven ability to write in multiple brand voices with precision, adapting tone and register for different audiences and contexts. - Experience writing in or adjacent to higher education, healthcare, or mission-driven categories is a strong differentiator; an understanding of adult learner psychology and high-stakes decision-making is particularly valued. - Experience working in high-volume content production environments, with an organized, deadline-driven working style. - A collaborative, mentoring mindset — you invest in the quality of the team's work, not just your own. - Advanced use of AI writing and content tools to enhance creative output and production efficiency. - Experience designing AI-assisted content workflows for self and team — including prompting strategies, editorial QA processes, and quality benchmarking. - Ability to train others on effective AI tool usage within a copywriting context. - Rigorous human editorial oversight: clear judgment on when AI enhances versus detracts from creative quality and brand integrity. Requirements - Write high-quality copy across all channels and formats — email, paid social, digital display, web, and video scripts. - Maintain deep brand fluency across all five healthcare education institutions, understanding the distinct voice, audience, and compliance requirements of each. - Collaborate with Art Directors and the Associate Creative Director to ensure copy and design integrate seamlessly across all assets. - Mentor and support junior Copywriters in the Toronto team, providing clear creative feedback and guidance. - Work within Pencil and other AI-assisted tools to enhance content production speed and quality — using AI to explore and iterate while maintaining rigorous human editorial judgment. - Manage multiple concurrent briefs within OMG, prioritizing effectively and delivering to agreed SLAs without compromising quality. - Ensure all copy is audience-appropriate, brand-compliant, and sensitive to the compliance requirements of higher education and healthcare marketing. - Contribute to the development of campaign concepts, content frameworks, and messaging strategies alongside the CRM Strategy Lead and ACD. - Participate in brand immersion and onboarding sessions to build deep institutional knowledge of university programs, audiences, and marketing priorities. Benefits - Flexible working arrangements. - Reasonable adjustments throughout the process.
