UNFOLD is seeking a

Jr. Copywriter, Social

who lives and breathes internet culture. This isn’t a role for “traditional” copy; we’re looking for somebody who knows how to stop the scroll with a single line of on-screen text or a perfectly curated meme. This person is a digital native who understands the difference between a "brand trying too hard" and a brand that actually gets the joke.

This role is ideal for an early-career creative who lives in social feeds, understands how language evolves online, and can write copy that stops the scroll and sparks engagement.

This role will focus on short-form social copy — memes, captions, hooks, punchy headlines, and on-screen text — working closely with designers, motion artists, and senior creatives to bring social-first ideas to life across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and emerging platforms.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Write clear, clever, and culturally relevant

social copy

, including memes, captions, on-screen text, hooks, and headlines designed for shareability and engagement.

Concept social-first creative ideas, including trend-hopping

Support the execution of social-first creative ideas by translating concepts into concise, platform-native language.

Collaborate with designers, motion artists, and senior creatives to ensure copy and visuals work seamlessly together.

Adapt existing assets, clips, and media libraries into fresh meme formats and social posts optimized for today’s platforms.

Help maintain consistency in voice, tone, and messaging across social content.

Stay up to date on social trends, meme formats, fandom language, and internet culture — and proactively bring relevant ideas to the team.

Revise and refine copy based on feedback, performance insights, and platform best practices.

REQUIREMENTS

1–3 years of experience writing copy for social media, preferably for entertainment, media, or youth/culture-driven brands (agency experience is a plus, but not required).

Strong writing skills with a demonstrated ability to write

short-form, internet-native copy

(memes, captions, headlines, on-screen text).

Deep familiarity with TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and evolving social formats and trends.

A strong sense of humor and cultural awareness, with instincts for what feels timely, relatable, and shareable.

Ability to take direction and collaborate closely with designers and senior creatives.

Comfortable working in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment where trends move quickly.

A portfolio or samples that show social writing, meme-style copy, or platform-native content.
