Copywriter (Direct Response / Ad Focused)
Remuneration: R150 per hour
Location: Remote (South Africa)
Type: Part-time or Full-time
We're looking for a copywriter who knows how to write copy that performs — ads that get clicks, video scripts that keep people watching, and captions that don’t sound like they were written by a bot.
This is not a blogging role. You won’t be writing articles after articles. You will be working on:
- Meta (Facebook/Instagram) ads
- Google Ads (headlines, descriptions)
- Short-form scripts for video ads
- Captions for social media
- Responses to Google reviews
- Light editing of existing content (checking tone, grammar, brand voice)
- Website copy
You’ll be expected to use tools like ChatGPT — but also know how to clean up and humanize that output. We’re not looking for someone to paste AI content and hit publish. You need to know how to guide the tool, then edit for tone, accuracy, and clarity.
What you need:
- Experience writing direct response ad copy
- A solid understanding of what works on Meta, Google, YouTube, etc.
- The ability to review and improve AI-generated drafts
- Familiarity with common copywriting frameworks
- Attention to tone, detail, and brand alignment
- Good judgment — especially in regulated industries (e.g. health, HIPAA-safe copy)
What we offer:
- R150 per hour
- Remote work with flexible hours
- A mix of ongoing writing and editing tasks
- Clear briefs and consistent feedback
- A team that values clean, smart, effective writing
To apply, send:
- A short intro or CV
- 2–3 samples of ad copy or short-form scripts you’ve written
- A quick explanation of how you use ChatGPT in your workflow
