How would you describe the Employee Experience?
Key messages. Value props. Long and short copy. Headlines and subs. Social posts.
Some writers are great at all of it. Some specialize. Some can genuinely do it all. We’re looking for you.
About the Role
Nexus is seeking talented content writers with talent and culture experience to work on a range of client projects. These are contract roles to work on selected client engagements. We may also be looking for talented writers for longer-term contracts, and possibly full time roles.
Working alongside our internal creative and account teams, you’ll help our clients bring large-scale employee-facing programs to life, with messaging tailored for executives, people leaders, and individual contributors.
Key Focus Areas
> Talent & Culture (including EVP work)
Employee Value Proposition and other strategy writing follows a three-step approach at Nexus - Articulate, Express, and Refine:
- Articulate - Synthesize inputs from clients and our strategy team into well-organized pillars, clearly articulated with their nuances and supporting reasons to believe. As an example, EVP Pillars should answer two central questions: Why work here? and Why stay here?
- Express - Bring those pillars to life with powerful, stylized language
- Refine - Actively listen and integrate nuanced feedback from stakeholders and participants
> Ad Creative
Develop digital talent attraction concepts for paid social, native, programmatic, and other targeted recruitment advertising - informed by the EVP and aimed at key job families. You’ll build creative platforms, ad copy, and post copy, including A/B and multivariate testing.
> Digital & Web Content
Write career-page content that brings the EVP to life with fidelity, creativity, and continuity — helping candidates understand and engage with our clients’ opportunities.
Across all three areas, strong digital writing chops and SEO fluency are essential.
