The primary difference between this and Senior Writer & Strategist is you will not be managing clients yet.

We're hiring a curious writer with an uncommon knack for precision and clarity. What makes our content studio unique is that we help brands think deeper and tell enduring stories that transcend mere corporate interest. In doing so, we help them achieve their goals—including ones they didn’t know they had. We aim to write content that not only helps people do their jobs better, but also that teaches them something new about humanity.

We’re about big ideas explained simply. The ideal candidate is someone who shares our curiosity about the world. Experience in B2B tech is welcomed, but not required.

Responsibilities:

• Write articles, ebooks, research reports, and the like

• Manage projects

• Plan and conduct research projects

• Collaborate closely with peers and clients

• Educate others on the value of clear writing

• Participate in branding

• Read a lot

• Learn a lot

How you'll know this job is for you:

• You're always asking, "How could I say this more succinctly?"

• You savor evocative writing wherever you find it

• You see ad copy and automatically think of ways to improve it

• You often wonder how others experience the world

• You love clever writing, but value clarity more

• You have special interests that fuel your work

• You enjoy working alone, but relish working with others

Bonus:

• You have experience in B2B tech or a related field

• You have basic skills in visual design and/or strong design tastes

Who we’re looking for

An inquisitive individual who excels at conveying complex ideas through well-chosen words. Ideally, you’ll have strong opinions about what stories interest you and should interest the client, based on their customers’ needs. Lots of the job is spending time researching, interviewing, and planning. Everyone at Fenwick is their own project manager, so you’ll take responsibility for setting expectations and deadlines with clients, managing your own overlapping projects, and delivering work on time.

People who have succeeded in this role were hungry for feedback and eager to master the craft of writing. They read widely, brought a unique perspective fueled by outside interests, and were eager to help others grow too.

Requisite skills

We'll be extra excited to talk to you if you offer a new perspective and are fascinated by people.

Must haves:

• Fluent command of English

• Ability to write and edit for clarity and concision

• Understanding of content strategy

• An interest in reading and writing

• Experience managing your own projects, establishing timelines, and setting expectations with stakeholders

Nice to haves:

• Understanding of basic UX and layout design a plus

The need

What we need is a writer who can help clients get the writing they need, if not the writing they asked for. The reason for the “strategist” in your title is that you’re highly skilled at writing, but also at finding interesting facts and stories, and filling in the missing pieces for clients.

We’re all here to put 10,000 hours into mastering the skills that most excite us. For you, as a writer, part of the challenge is extrapolating tactical requests, like “write a blog series on law software,” into larger, more meaningful narratives—like explaining the history of corporations and how some of their early quirks have shaped our society. Nine times out of ten, the client won’t have that narrative. Nor will they know they need it. Your job is to find it, help them understand why it’s interesting to their audience, and produce it.

✔️ We aren't actively hiring for this role yet, but welcome submissions

✔️ Reports to Chris, CEO

Your job is to direct the creative resources of Fenwick to help our clients achieve their aims. You are one of our most senior strategists and our clients’ primary point of contact. You are their champion, confidant, and source of inspiration, and help us all deliver on the spirit of their requests.

This is a creative strategy and client management role, without any upsell expectations or quotas. Often, you will convince clients not to buy more, because it wouldn’t really fix their problem. When you’re doing your job well, they get the most for their budget while keeping the project profitable for us, and everyone’s happy doing the work.

The need: We believe this role fills a gap in how we’re organized

For nine years we’ve gotten by with no project managers, producers, nor account managers—just creatives. Every writer or designer owns their own accounts. What’s great about this is there’s no game of telephone—if a client makes an ill-fated request, it doesn’t ping-pong through Fenwick. It stops right there, on that call, because that writer or designer is also the strategist. Never has a client ever had to ask to “Please just talk to the writer.” It’s part of what clients love about us.

That’s the good. The challenge is that as we’re taking on larger clients, those creatives can’t do it all; they’re spread thin and want more time to get inspired and focus. We’ve also always trusted that our work speaks for itself and we recognize it’d be better if we were in more meetings to advocate for it. We also only tend to hear about our successes years after the fact, when a former client says, “By the way that ebook got me promoted. It generated $1 million in pipeline.”

You’ll help tie all these loose threads together to create a better experience for our creatives and our clients. You are the creative director insofar as you direct our creative resources to ensure projects are mutually successful.

Responsibilities

• Deliver creatively competent strategies—creatively inspired, but effective, because you understand how the client’s business works.

• Staff and manage an ephemeral pod of co-equal studio creatives who participate in that strategy and produce the work.

• Ensure we run profitable projects—by being a great strategist and managing the project.

• Ensure clients are successful and happy—in that order; these don’t always co-occur.

• Serve as the customer’s primary point of contact.

• Direct the creative resources of Fenwick to own and manage client projects.

• Participate in scoping and selling projects.

• Manage projects, timelines, and tasks, or compensate by managing someone who does.

• Be a partner to the studio team and help them be creatively fulfilled.

How you’ll know this job is for you

• You’re highly opinionated with strongly-argued, loosely-held beliefs.

• You understand your own creative process deeply.

• You sometimes worry you ask too many questions.

• You often hear a strategy and think, “Oh, there’d be an easier way to achieve that.”

• You thrill in doing the right thing.

• You’ve a strong moral compass and know there’s good money and bad money.

• You want to help build an institution that lasts 100 years.

• You love sharing all the praise and helping others grow.

• You never tire of teaching others how creative work works.

Bonus qualifications

• You have outside artistic pursuits.

Who we’re looking for

Truth be told we don’t know exactly who the perfect person is, or how we’ll recognize them, but this is our hypothesis: You’ve mastered writing or design, and also excel at communicating with and persuading others. You likely have some agency background and intuitively understand what it means to strategize, scope, and execute on creative projects. You know deeply what marketers want. And you have the kind of personality where you find a way, not excuses. You’re upbeat, a kindly dictator when it comes to keeping everyone on track, and you prize intellectual humility, as all of us here do.

Requisite skills

Must haves:

• Fluent command of English

• Experience pitching creative strategies

• Experience telling stories that move people

• Experience executing on creative projects—setting timelines, managing expectations, etc.

• Advanced skills in either design or writing

• Clear communication

• The ability to speak in nonviolent terms and work through disagreements

Nice to haves:

• An accurate sense of your weak areas and a gift for finding coworkers who compensate for them

• B2B software experience

• Agency experience

• Media experience

Fenwick is a content studio that’s brings artistry back to B2B.

✔️ Reports to Chris, CEO

In the creative director job posting above, we describe who we think we need. But also don’t really know. So this is another approach: Reading what the CEO

The need: We believe this role fills a gap in how we’re organized

For nine years we’ve gotten by with no project managers, producers, nor account managers—just creatives. Every writer or designer owns their own accounts. What’s great about this is there’s no game of telephone—if a client makes an ill-fated request, it doesn’t ping-pong through Fenwick.

Never has a client ever had to ask to “Please just talk to the writer.” It’s part of what clients love about us.

We’ve also always trusted that our work speaks for itself and we recognize it’d be better if we were in more meetings to advocate for it. We also only tend to hear about our successes years after the fact, when a former client says, “By the way that ebook got me promoted. It generated $1 million in pipeline.”

You’ll help tie all these loose threads together to create a better experience for our creatives and our clients. You are the creative director insofar as you direct our creative resources to ensure projects are mutually successful.

Things the CEO is currently doing, most of which you are welcome to

• Selling new client projects (the CEO will keep this)

• Scoping projects and assessing studio team capacity

• Acting as the primary point of contact on most accounts

• Staffing each account with creatives from the studio team

• Managing those projects and tasks in Notion

• Taking the lead on many research projects and creative pitches

• Spending a lot of time getting inspired to pitch new and unusual things

• Following up with clients to figure out how successful we were (they’re busy and rarely remit the data)

• Keeping up with those client contacts so we have a strong sense of whether they’re happy or not

• Having difficult conversations when clients are being unfair, or apologizing when we’ve been wrong

The question: What role would you write for yourself?

How you’ll know this job is for you

• You’re highly opinionated with strongly-argued, loosely-held beliefs.

• You understand your own creative process deeply.

• You sometimes worry you ask too many questions.

• You often hear a strategy and think, “Oh, there’d be an easier way to achieve that.”

• You thrill in doing the right thing.

• You never tire of teaching others how creative work works.
