[FILLED]Advertising Copywriter (Toronto)

An exceptional opportunity for an intermediate copywriter. Requirements are a strong background in online content. While this will initially be the primary responsibility, opportunity to work on TV and radio do also exist. You should have examples of strong “call to action” creative as this agency is all about creating a behavioral change in the viewer/listener.

The agency is full service (ie: tv, radio, print, digital). They are smaller (30 – 40 people) and are some of the nicest people I’ve ever had as clients. They’re in downtown Toronto.

If this sounds like something you’d be interested in, please send me a resume and portfolio (or links). glenn@swanstaffing.com

Thanks Glenn
