IKEA Communications AB

Here it is. A senior writing gig that can change your life, and that of many others.

How about a once-in-a-lifetime writing gig that will change your life? Well… we’re looking for a senior copywriter and wordsmith who wants to be a part of one of the most well-known brands in the world.   

We’re building a competence centre for copywriting excellence at IKEA Communications in Älmhult, Sweden. Great people have already joined - now we’re looking for the final pieces to make the team complete.

Who we are:

At IKEA Communications, a 330+ strong bunch of great people from 30+ countries do global communication for IKEA, reaching every part of the globe. We work with global content for IKEA.com, the IKEA Catalogue, IKEA Ideas, News, PR launches and much more, alongside development of new ways of reaching the many people, such as VR, AR and MR. And of course loads of stuff we can’t talk about in an ad.

Who you are:

We’re looking for a senior copywriter: well anchored in the creation of creative & strategic concepts, editorial & marketing copy, social media, snappy headlines and everything in between. You’re probably used to coaching and developing junior peers – but also listening and learning from them, because you love to see others succeed. You know what defines a tone-of-voice and are very comfortable presenting and promoting it to the world around you. You know your English backwards and forwards (well, forwards at least). You understand when words are necessary and when they're not—and how to tailor them to different media.

You have 7+ years of experience. You’re a creative thinker who is self-motivated, adaptable, talented and passionate about collaboration. You’re focused on meeting your deadlines, but willing to lend a hand when needed.

Sound like fun? If so, we want to hear from you! This is your chance to work for a meaningful company that encourages personal development, celebrates diversity, and embraces a work/life balance. An interest in sustainability, home furnishings, and a sense of humour is always a plus.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE POSITION WILL BE BASED IN ÄLMHULT, SWEDEN.

If this is for you, then we look forward to receiving your CV, link to portfolio and an advert describing yourself.

We’ll take candidates into the recruitment process continuously having phone interviews as soon as we think we have found the right candidate. 

Please be aware that candidates who have been proven successful after the phone interviews will be invited to a full-day assessment centre on November 29th in Sweden.
