Freelance Scriptwriter (Project-Based Contract)

Overview of the Role

Let There Be is a science marketing agency that helps leading healthcare brands communicate and visualize science in clear, ownable, regulatory-approved ways.

We are looking for a talented Freelance Scriptwriter to join our team on a flexible, contract basis. You will be working directly with our team to bring creative concepts to life, helping us expand our scriptwriting capacity alongside our current internal writing team.

This is a contract-to-ongoing opportunity. To ensure we are a mutual fit for style, communication, and workflow, we will start the engagement with 1 to 2 initial test projects. If the initial projects align well, we intend to establish a consistent, ongoing freelance partnership for future projects.

Compensation & Hours

• Rate: $30.00 / hour (Paid via invoice as an independent contractor).
• Time Commitment: Highly flexible and project-dependent. To give you an idea of the scope, a single project typically averages less than 6 hours per week.
• Workflow: Work is assigned on a per-project basis. You can scale your capacity based on project availability and your schedule.

Core Responsibilities

• Script Conceptualization & Writing: Draft compelling, well-structured scripts based on project briefs, client guidelines, and creative direction.
• Collaboration & Revision: Work closely with our internal team to implement feedback and refine scripts through the revision process.
• Deadline Management: Deliver high-quality drafts within agreed-upon project timelines.

What We Are Looking For

• Proven experience in scriptwriting (experience with video, ads, podcasts, or corporate media is a plus).
• A strong portfolio demonstrating adaptable writing styles, excellent pacing, and clear storytelling.
• Self-motivated freelancers who communicate proactively and hit milestones independently.
• Ability to take constructive feedback and translate it into polished final drafts.

How We Will Start

If your background aligns with what we're looking for, our next step will be to schedule a brief introductory call. From there, we will assign 1–2 paid trial projects to kick things off!
