• Salary: £21,000 - £36,000
• Position details:

  Do you have a passion for technology and a desire to understand how things work? Whether you have a background in engineering automation or you’re already a professional writer covering the subject, if you’re able to communicate that enthusiasm into the written word we’d love to hear from you.

  We are a successful and growing B2B marketing agency that produces editorial, websites, movies, ads, apps and good old traditional brochure copy for some of the biggest engineering and automation brands in the world. It’s our job to write about product launches, case studies and industry news in a factual and interesting style to generate column for our clients around the world.

Previous experience within engineering, automation, technical writing or a technical journalistic role is absolutely necessary.

  Within the role you will be responsible for your own writing schedule. You will be expected to communicate with clients and conduct independent research to enable you to produce original and high quality copy which will be integrated with wider marketing campaigns.

  Language: We are happy to consider candidates with either English or German as a native language. English will be the
