Copywriter and Editor

Description

This role reports directly to the Creative Director of Copy for Whole Foods Market.

We’re on the quest for a Copywriter who is proficient in three areas :

Conceptual and strategic thinking

Simplifying complex ideas into short, crisp, clear messaging

Food writing (digital, signage, UI)

You are a highly charged and curious leader skilled in managing tentpole projects and multi‑brands that require all three skills. You are customer obsessed, adaptable, proactive, and comfortable with changing priorities. Collaboration is your middle name. You’re passionate about selling your ideas and defending them across the company.

Lastly, you must have an advertising portfolio of blow‑me‑away writing. Not the stuffy, white‑tablecloth kind of writing, but rather the approachable, next‑door neighbor writing that showcases your love for food.

Key job responsibilities

Leading projects with multiple stakeholders and balancing their business needs with a commitment to positive solutions.

Skilled at writing about food in diverse styles while keeping the brand voice prevalent—including writing snappy, short copy for UX, and concise, clear promo copy for emails, digital banners, paid media, and in‑store signage.

Concept with designers on photo selection, design, and overall strength of each asset to ensure a strong finished product.

Present work to Creative Director, Design Director, and Senior Leadership.

Respectfully challenge decisions—have a backbone but be ready to disagree and commit.

Skilled in handling multiple projects in a fast‑paced, results‑oriented environment.

Familiar with Whole Foods Market and Amazon culture, brand, Core Values, Leadership Principles, and Quality Standards.

Skills

Culinary knowledge above and beyond a typical writer.

Excellent organizational skills, attention to detail, and a strong sense of urgency.

Experience with broadcast writing (TV, radio, video campaigns).
