Content Writer

Countless clients around the world, from broadcasters, production companies, DSPs, and YouTubers rely on our tracks to help them tell their stories. Epidemic Sound’s music is heard in hundreds of millions of online videos daily, across millions of playlist streams, and in thousands of in-store locations. Headquartered in Stockholm, we’re spread across offices in New York City, Los Angeles, Seoul, Hamburg, and Amsterdam. We’re growing fast, have lots of fun, and are taking the music industry with us.

The Marketing Team at Epidemic Sound is now looking for a passionate Content Writer to help us drive global organic growth through blog articles and other types of written content. We’re looking for a passionate storyteller with a partiality for the written word. Simultaneously, we believe that you’re humble, great at receiving feedback, and aren’t afraid to “kill your darlings” in favor of SEO optimization, strategy, and input from other stakeholders. You’re a doer, a team player, and write quickly and effectively from briefs, bullet points, and keyword research. Planning the route by setting strategies is less important for you while producing excellent content is what drives you. While writing is your calling, you’re also keen on contributing to the bigger picture through the content you produce.

In this hands-on role, you will be reporting to and assisting the Digital Content Manager in producing and developing informative, educational, and inspiring content on various topics within the music and creative industries.
