Role Description



The Dropbox Writing Studio is looking for an accomplished copywriter, editor, and story strategist to shape and strengthen the Dropbox voice within our high-impact marketing initiatives.



The role sits on the newly centralized Writing Studio sub-team within Comms and Brand, which is responsible for the quality, consistency, and excellence of brand messaging across the company. This person will play a key role in how Dropbox shows up in the world for our customers by writing and editing campaign messaging, landing page copy, emails, long-form stories, product updates, and other highly visible marketing assets.



They'll collaborate closely with leaders and teams across the company--including Integrated Marketing, Brand Marketing, Sales, Communications, PMM, Engineering, and Legal--to ensure content is as clear, engaging, and brand-aligned as possible.

Responsibilities



Write highly visible and impactful marketing content across the customer pipeline

Edit content drafts, including campaign messaging, emails, customer stories, and other prominent marketing assets

Partner with cross-functional teams to shape project strategy, align on timelines, and set the foundation before writing begins

Solicit feedback and obtain approvals from stakeholders (including senior leaders) across the company

Navigate stakeholder feedback while prioritizing writing excellence and our brand voice

Requirements



6+ years of experience in either copywriting, editorial content, or journalism, with a minimum of 2 years at a tech company

A proven track record of writing excellent content; you have a stellar portfolio of engaging and diverse content, including campaign messaging, web page copy, emails, narrative stories, and more

Superb communication skills and a collaborative spirit; you know how to solicit and reconcile feedback from a wide range of stakeholders, and you can work across teams to develop content that elevates our brand

Organized and process-oriented, you know how to stick to deadlines but can also be flexible when plans change

Demonstrated passion for writing on every dimension:

voice, style, rhythm, structure, language economy, and grammatical precision

A curiosity for technology and how it impacts the way we live, communicate, and work

Preferred Qualifications



You've worked as both a writer and an editor in your career

You've written marketing copy in a fast-paced agency setting, servicing a variety of internal and external stakeholders

You bring a healthy mix of brand copywriting, tech marketing, and journalism experience; we're looking for someone who's experienced all of these areas, not specialized in only one

Writing has been at the heart of your career. This is a role for a highly skilled storyteller, so we aren't looking for a content strategist whose primary focus has been governance, distribution, SEO, or other areas of content strategy that are less copy-oriented.

Compensation Canada Pay Range $131,300--$177,700 CAD



The range listed above is the expected annual salary/OTE for this role, subject to change.



Salary/OTE is just one component of Dropbox's total rewards package. All regular employees are also eligible for the corporate bonus program or a sales incentive (target included in OTE) as well as stock in the form of Restricted Stock Units (RSUs).
