We're looking for a freelance Senior Copywriter for our Animal Health portfolio: a writer who loves doing meaningful, craft-first work and wants real ownership without the red tape.

What you'll do

• Oversee copy and content development on assigned projects within our Animal Health portfolio, managing each assignment from concepting through final delivery, including proofing.
• Support clients' regulatory reviews by quickly ramping up as a product information specialist on assigned accounts, appropriately sourcing and referencing written materials.
• Quickly build fluency in each client and their specific industry: therapeutics, diagnostic tools, audiences, and language, to deliver on-brief work from day one.
• Create strategic copy and narratives across brand identities, print, digital, web, social, campaigns, and technical guides, ensuring clarity and consistency throughout.
• Partner closely with FWD People team members and clients to articulate ideas, develop concepts, and ensure assets are strategic and on-brand.
• Maintain version and quality control of owned assets throughout each project.

What you'll bring

• 7+ years of copywriting experience within a similar agency environment, with a primary focus in healthcare / pharma. Animal Health experience is a huge plus.
• High standards for the creative process and exceptional attention to detail, ensuring accuracy, consistency, and precision in all deliverables.
• Proficiency in AMA and AP style and a strong understanding of best practices in the pharma and healthcare industry.
